Feeeeelin' goooood....

Posted on January 12, 2015

I weigh myself every day. I know I shouldn't, but I LOVE to eat poorly after about 4 pm and knowing I'm stepping on the scale in the morning helps keep that in check. Downside - sometimes it feels like my weight is going NOWHERE. Today, down 0.3 lbs. Arrrrggg. BUT I FEEL great! I really feel a lot slimmer and firmer, especially in the ol' belly area and also my 'bingo wings'. Major difference in the bingo wings. Plus, if I actually look at it, I'm down 4.3 lbs since the beginning of January and down 2 lbs in the last week. So, while it's not the super rapid weight loss that many people seem to experience on DB4, it's nothing to sneeze at! At this rate, it will be a bit close for my DB4 but I'm definitely giong to make my DB10 monthly goal :-) And surely my skipants should be looser soon....right?

You're doing great! I am happy when I lose 0.3 pounds from day to day... that means I am on track for my 2 pounds a week goal... which I actually hit this past week from Sunday to Sunday. Sounds like you did too! It doesn't have to be too much too fast. Slow and steady is a lot more sustainable. Also, pounds are a tricky thing. To someone who weighs 200 pounds 2 pounds is a lot different than those same 2 pounds are to someone who weighs 150 pounds. The same 2 pounds are still different to someone who weighs say 250, or someone who is 300. Then there are those who weigh say 125, 2 pounds is a whole lot to them. It's not so much the pounds... it's all about the % of weight loss. That's why DietBet games focus on %s. my 4% goal this month has been between 6.7 and 6.8 pounds. Last month, my goals were 7.2 pounds. Someone else's pound goal may be less while someone else's may be more. It is all about what is working for you and what your goals are!

Good for you! I weigh in every morning too, but I don't log it on here, but once a week - Saturday. You've got this!
