Damn. And I thought I was making progress. I’m chalking up this week’s 2lb gain to hormones….when you eat the right things, surely that’s it, right? Argh.
A good drop!
Did you notice that I didn’t post last week’s weigh in? I completely spaced it until after the actual consumption of Halloween candy had started, and well, I didn’t want to set myself up for failure. So I skipped the weigh-in altogether and ate more Halloween candy.
But this week I remembered……and was pleasantly surprised! Apparently walking when I can, drinking water and high-fiber yogurt smoothies has worked, and I’m back down to 173.6. I haven’t been below 174 since August, so this is a very good thing! One more pound and down to my “all time low” since joining Tales from the Scales!
Now I must keep on moving down from here!!
Note to self:
EAT LESS CRAP.
I think that sums it up nicely. Those two pounds I lost over the past two weigh-ins? Back with a vengance. It snuck up on me–too much junk in a short time period=weight gain. It’s a simple equation. A burger and fries for lunch, pizza for dinner, birthday cake the next day, leftover birthday cake the next two days and topped off with an enchilada the following day is just NOT the key to successful weight loss.
Goal for this week? Lose one of those pesky pounds—AGAIN.
See how the rest of the Look Great in 2008 challengers are doing at Tales from the Scales!
