Important ~*Healthy Weight Loss & COE Recovery*~ - Page 12

I like the idea of this being a monthly comp too ...

.

I'm trying not to weigh myself as often (that said I'll probably break and weigh myself later lol). The last few days haven't been overly healthy but I've been busy and tired so that's not entirely surprising. Have been to the gym 3 times this week so that's positive. Was going to go today but I've enjoyed a sleep in instead. I could, technically, still go ... but I'm okay with not. I'll probably go for a walk later instead.

Just working out in my head what food I've got in the house. Thankfully I've got some money in my bank now, don't entirely understand why (it's due to be in on Monday) but I'm not going to complain. I need to go get some more munchies so might do that later on. Just need to ensure I'm not hungry when I do it because that always ends badly!

But all in all going okay I think.

My weight this morning was 206lbs

.
So for the time period of 30th Jan - 27th Feb I've lost 7lbs. (I started at 213lbs)
I'm very pleased with that and if I can keep that up as a rough monthly loss then I'll reach my goal of 3stone weight loss by the end of the year.

I did real well on Thursday, but then weighed myself Friday morning and saw a small gain. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr So that sorta discouraged me. I ended up having a few beer last night, and whenever I do that I don't like to weigh the next day because I don't think it will be accurate. I feel sorta crappy today (unmotivated, tired, and really hungry). I hope I can get myself to stay on track today...I just can't let myself gain these few pounds that I lost, and if I get off track that is exactly what will happen!

^^ have you considered not weighing every day? Maybe doing like a weekly weigh in?
It's something I find can really control my day ... even though I know that my weight fluctuates a lot

^my reason for wanting to weigh everyday is because when I am on track I know I will lose a bit (usually anyways), and when I am off track but trying to get back on track it's reassurance that I am only 1lb bigger, not 20lbs bigger (like I feel). I might consider weighing twice a week though...it might even be more motivating that way.

Everyone disappeared again! What the heck, get back in here!!!

I went off track again this weekend. It's all the beer's fault too. On Friday night I had a few beer with my husband (so extra calories there!), so Saturday I felt real crappy (I always feel real crappy even if I don't get drunk and I only have a few beer...I never used to and I am convinced there is something wrong with me...like maybe I get dehydrated more easily these days...anyways, that's a different story), so I ate crappy because I felt crappy...then I had a few more beer that night - and ordered pizza at midnight (not like me)!!....I ate okayish yesterday, until I ate this really high calorie chocolate, and a lot of it. So I of course gained this weekend...and feel like all that work I did this week was wasted. It's always the beer that gets me off track too....but I really enjoy having a few beer and relaxing sometimes....uhhhhhhhh.

So is TA going to make a new thread for March? I was all pumped to come in here and make new goals for myself for the month. Maybe I'll just do it here anyways...

March
SW: 134.6lbs
GW(for March 31st): 130lbs (I would like to reach this sooner, but that is my deadline)

-write out my exercise goals for the day
-drink plenty of water
-focus on healthy eatting
-remember how good it feels to eat healthy and exercise, and how awful it feels not to

today's exercise goals:
-yoga (about 15 minutes)
-day time walk with baby (about 20 minutes)
-toe touching (at least 15 times throughout the day)
