A Better Week Than Last

Good morning everyone! So this week's weigh in is a little bit odd. Instead of doing it this morning first thing after waking up, which is my normal routine. I decided last night to weigh myself before dinner. It was so hot yesterday that we decided we didn't want to cook so we ordered pizza and soda. Since both those items skew my weigh ins, I figured it would be best to weigh before I had them. So I did. I've heard that when you change the time you weigh, it changes your weight so decide for yourself whether this weigh in is legit or not. I'll wait to judge till I see next week's. So here you go...

Weight: 257.1 lbs
Change: 4.4 lb loss
Pounds to Goal: 7.1
BMI: 40.35

This week was better but nowhere near perfect. I had four days of being under on my calories, two days of going over, and my yard work day which I didn't count. I think I was somewhere around breaking even that day though. I allowed myself to eat what I wanted, when I wanted. At the end of the day, I ate less than I had the week before on yard work day so no matter where it fell on the calorie scale, it was a success. I'm going to stick to not counting on yard work days.

The exercise department was not so great. With the exception of yard work day and the day I allowed myself as a wallow day, there was no day that I got in all the exercise I had planned. Three of the days, the heat bothered me so bad that I had to cut my exercise short, one day I felt nauseous so I cut it short and then yesterday I didn't even try at all because I woke up with a horrible pain in my back that made it hard to move around.

And in NSV news, the shorts I made just a few weeks ago already have to be taken in in the waist. I knew when I made them that I would have to take them in relatively soon. I didn't make the elastic really tight, it held the shorts in place but if I lost any inches, I'd be having to pull the pants up. Well, apparently I have lost some inches because yesterday I had to keep pulling the shorts back up every few steps. I wasn't planning on taking them in till August so this is an unexpected and very pleasant surprise. I won't measure myself till I hit my goal so it'll be interesting to see what I've lost by then.

That's it for now! Talk at you later.

  1. Well heck - I'd say that is an excellent loss, and I wouldn't worry about changing the time. Nice going and congratulations!!!

    1. Thanks! I've heard and read that your weight fluctuates through the day so you should always weigh at the same time. I dunno.
