Week 28 (7 Months)

Week 28 (7 months)

 

Last week’s weight – 195.8

This week’s weight – 195.8

Total weight gained/lost this week – 0

 

Beginning weight – 246 lbs

Total weight loss since surgery – 50.4 lbs

 

I need to have a serious “talk” with myself. I am not happy with this yo-yoing I am going through. Currently my weight is fluctuating between 197 – 195.8. I know this is due to a lack of focus. I hit the 50 lb mark and now I am not as motivated or as focused as I was.

 

My worst time is after work. I am bored or avoiding house work. That is when I munch and drink.

 

This is what I ate yesterday –

  • 16 oz of water
  • Slimfast ready made drink with 20 grams of protein
  • Walked into a training where the trainer had Halloween candy. I ate 6 small twix and 3 whoppers (not hungry it was just there).
  • Cream of Chicken soup at hand
  • Crystal Light Lemonaid with 20 grams of protein (added strawberry protein stuff from Unjury)
  • Dinner with friend at Outback
    • Firefly Lemonaid Drink (had a few sips and then took home and finished later)
    • Ceaser Salad
    • Chicken Flatbread Pizza Appetizer (ate one slice and then took the rest home which I ate later)

    [*]Finished rest of flatbread pizza (shared 3 slices with husband) and drink

    [*]Ate a bunch of pistachio nuts (not hungry – bored while watching TV – avoiding laundry)

    [*]Ate a bunch of dried mangos (not hungry – bored while watching TV – avoiding laundry)

 

I did work out in the morning – Crossfit.

 

In hindsight I should have not ordered the drink. I should have avoided the Halloween candy. I should have had the croutons taken off my salad. I should have drunk more water. I should have avoided the pistachio and dried mangos. Ugh….I stepped on the scale this morning and yup I was up from 195.8 to 197.2 (not counting it because I only record weight on Wednesday).

 

Need to be more mindful about my eating and drinking this week.

Do you want to be Scale Pals? We could record weight every Wednesday and report it (truthfully) to one another either here or via text messaging with a picture of the scale! it's a different form of motivation. I'm right where you are weight-wise and looking to take off 30 more pounds. If not interested, just let me know. I'm looking for whatever will work!

Can I be a Scale Pal too? I am in the same boat as the two of you also...I keep bouncing between 190-192 and I would like to get about 30 more pounds off. I think it would be very helpful for me to have to be accountable to for my weigh-ins.
