weigh in: 198.6

goal weight: 192

 

Offical weight loss for my first week is 2 lbs.

 

This frustrates me. I'm not going to lie.....

 

I realize this week I'm much more of a snacker and grazer than I thought. I do most of my shopping during the weekend and am finding since the Dietbet, our snacks in our home are lasting a whole lot longer.

 

I had a really good first week. I wish my steps would have been somewhat higher, ( I didn't nail my 15k step goal per day like I wanted). I nailed my eating, only cconsuming food I preplanned or made and cut out all fast food and restaurant dining. I worked out 5 days of 7. I killed my water intake hitting one gallon or more with most days seeing an average of 100 ounces or more.  Charlie Mike, the bodybuilding program I'm doing also has made me realize I've hit a 10 min per mile pace on a treadmill. This is unheard of for me. For some reason treadmill running is 100 times worse for me than trail running. I've also named my treadmill at the gym. " el Diablo". :)

 

I am still frustrated. I'm not going to lie......

 

My love hate relationship with the scale has me starting week 2 with doubt. My brain has convinced itself that the scale will not move. It definitely does not help that today is day 2 away from the gym because I'm not feeling well. ( Darn people who refuse to stay home when sick).  I did plant a garden with my husband and plan on at least trying to work out from home. p90x3 maybe?

 

My goal for the week is to continue with consistent eating and water intake and get the workouts in when I can. It definitely helps that my work schedule is not so insane this week ( I'm a nurse manager). I'm going to remain optimistic even though my brain and gut tells me I'm being disciplined for nothing.
