I want to start by saying I love seeing all the comments everyone is leaving on my weight journey posts! I weighed in at Weight Watcher again this week on 1/22/13. My mom and I had a hard time getting to Weight Watchers this week because we have been getting dumped on with snow. We did make it to Weight Watchers though.
This was after 1 day of snow! It's been snowing for about 3 days!
This last week has been really rough for me between being sick and having a period for the first time in almost 3 years. (I know that's probably too much info but it's been a rough week. I have an IUD birth control that has made me not have a period in almost 3 years tell this month.) My whole body feels completely wacko! I hate to have to admit this but at this week's weigh in i gained 0.8 ounces. I'm really hoping it is just because my body is so messed up from being sick and of course my period. Regardless of why I gained I felt like crying my eyes out. I felt like a failure after losing 8 pounds last week.
My habits have changed a little with being sick. I have mostly been eating soup and drinking a lot of fluids! I have not been able to really work out much this week. I have still been eating in my point range every day so that's good! I am really hoping I get feeling better really soon so I can get my motivation back!
Anyway I'm trying to just let this week blow over. I know I'm going to have good and bad weeks so I should just let it go and not let it get me down. Easier said than done.
This is the plan I set up for myself 1/8/13:
*Started Weight Watchers
*I try to do some type of workout every day (big or small)
*Drink more water
*Drink less soda
*Tell others what I'm doing
So far this plan is going pretty good. I'm sticking to Weight Watchers and until I got sick I was doing a workout every day. I have been drinking a ton more water than I used to! I have not had ANY regular or diet soda since 1/15/13! If I start getting a craving for soda I have been drinking flavored carbonated water! This has worked really well for me!
I am thinking of going out to eat for the first real time since starting my weight journey! Please wish me luck! I know for me it's always a test to go out to eat when I'm trying to lose weight! I will be back to update again soon!
I think you are right on track! you didn't gain too much weight and I'm sure once you start feeling better you will drop even more! Just don't get disscurraged. Losing 8 pounds is very good and I know you can reach your weight loss goal! Keep it up! =)
You are doing great! I know it is easier said then done but dont let .8 get you down! Losing 8 lbs is a great job and that littlw gain is probably from bloating and ect from that lovely woman time.
If you only gained 0.8lbs after losing 8 then don't you fret girl you're doing awesome, especially after all you're going through!
ReplyDeleteThank you! It's really hard though! I just have to try to keep my chin up!
