Weekly Weight In

I have decided to dedicate every Saturday to a weekly weigh-in. Over the years I've discovered that if I weight myself too often (every day) then I become obsessed with the little fluctuations that happen throughout the week, but if I wait too long between weigh-ins I become a bit like an ostrich with its head in the sand. Therefore, I will weigh in every Saturday, once a week, and report my weight here.

So without further ado, I weighed in this morning at 203 lbs, which is 2 lbs. less than I weighed last Saturday. So all the small changes I made this week actually worked, and I am on my way to a smaller me.

I know my weight loss methods may not be orthodox or very rigorous. The changes I am making are small ones that will result in gradual weight loss, not sudden or dramatic at all. But I am doing this thing MY way, and for the first time EVER, I feel like I am making changes that I can actually maintain for a lifetime. As my husband has told me before, "you make the rules, no one else." I am taking that sentiment to heart, and so far I feel incredibly successful.

In conclusion, 2 pounds down, 53 to go, haha. And onward I march...

  2. That's great progress! I've been happy about my changes too. Definitely over ate tonight. Should have had a kiddy-sized ice cream. Oh well, tommorrow is a new day. Keep up the good work :-)
