Back to the drawing board!!

Ok then. I only lost 0.3kg (0.66lbs) when I weighed in tonight. I didn't make my target of 1.2kg (2.64lbs) for the week. I could really beat myself up right now, but I am not going to. I am going to look at the positives. Number 1, I lost weight! A loss is a loss is a loss is a loss! And yes, I didn't make my target this week, but I am still on track so far because I lost 1.1kg (2.42lbs) last week and that wasn't supposed to be counted, so I am actually still a tiny bit ahead. I just don't have as much of a lead as I had before. Now, I have to do better this week and I can definitely do that. Back to the drawing board with the tracking I think. I think there were a couple of other factors as well, such as not enough exercise and I drank a lot of water just before I weighed in because I went to the gym, but I really think the biggest thing is my tracking. It's not that I didn't track or that I didn't track everything - I did. I just think that in some cases I might not have tracked enough points because maybe I didn't get the portion size right. So this week I am going to really make sure that my tracking is spot on and I started tonight by weighing my dinner as I dished it up to make sure that I was tracking the right portion sizes. So here's hoping that next weigh in is much much better!!

Happy losing everyone!!

  1. I love your positive attitude Shari! A loss is a loss and it is something to be proud of. But I know how disappointing it can be to see a smaller loss than you hoped for or expected.

    You amaze me! I'll be breaking out my tracker on Saturday (my weigh in day). And I'll be measuring too.
