Well, I did lose a little bit of weight, but I had hoped for a bigger loss. However, any loss is worth celebrating. So, Yeah Me!
So, why do I think my weight loss wasn't very big even though my tracking looks phenomenal?
1) I didn't weigh and measure everything I ate. There was a lot of estimation going on. I need to stop that. Buy a new battery for your scale already!!! No more excuses.
2) I did pick and nibble while cooking dinner and I didn't account for that. I used to chew gum while cooking dinner so that I wasn't tempted to pick. I need to start doing that again.
3) My muscles are REALLY sore from soccer and my marathon 2.5 hour yoga session on Saturday. I know that sore muscles hold a lot of water due to inflammation.
4) My body always has a hard time letting go when I get to the 170 range. I don't know what it is, but every time I lose weight, I plateau/lose weight at a glacial pace at 170.
But here's the good news: I've lost 1 whole percentage point off of my body fat according to my analyzer. And my jeans are fitting better. No more muffin top. :-) I know that the fat is coming off and that's what counts.
I'm going to work hard on correcting the mistakes that I made this week so that next week can be a better one. But I would be really happy with another 0.4 pound loss again next week. Anything in the downward direction is OK by me.
===============================================
Edit:
I know that I wrote earlier this morning but I forgot to add a very good thing that happened this weekend, and really wanted to record this success.
Well, I changed my weigh-in day to Monday to challenge(force) me to track on the weekends. Yesterday, I broke down and ate a very "pricey" meal for lunch of steak and potatoes left over from the previous night. Then my husband and I went to the movies and I ate a whole bag of GoRaw Spirulina Chips (instead of one serving). So, dinner comes around and I really only have about 200 cals to stay within my cal target for the day. I almost said, "%$#! it" and ate when I had planned for dinner anyway.
But I knew my weigh-in was in the morning and I really wanted to have a good morning. So, I altered the dinner plans, which was supposed to be Shrimp Teriyaki with rice. Instead, I had a really awesome salad with fresh herbs, shrimp, balsamic vinegar, and a little bit of truffle oil. It was SO good and I only went over a few calories for the day.
