Scale was friendly this morning

I got on the scale this morning and was shocked.  In a week and a half it says I'm down 13lbs.  Of course, I know this is not a reality.  I was retaining water last week, and my weight fluctuates up to 5lbs a day.  However, the number on the scale was close to being in the next range of numbers, so that's a good thing for me! I'm not comfortable with the number so I'm not going to reveal it yet but eventually I will reveal. 

I thought calories and carbs were pretty good today until I calculated everything.  I'm a bit high on the calories and carbs.  Journaling is a must for me.  I really need to work at getting the carbs down.  One of the problems is lunch is catered at work everyday.  I know, I could bring my own food in and that might be what needs to happen.  The bright side is I do try to stay away from the fully stocked pantry of rice krispie treats, sour patch kids, chips, pop tarts, etc.

I really want the calories to remain under 1500 and the carbs need to be closer to 60 a day for awhile. That awesome cornbread during lunch and the bad choice in dinner (didn't feel like cooking) did me in for the day.
