Well, unfortunately, week 4 was not the success I had hoped for.
Not only did I fail to get all the work outs in I had hoped for, The scale wasn't my friend this week either. Yesterday's weigh in says I have actually gained a pound this week!!! A whole pound!!!
Gaining a pound puts me off of my target weight loss by 3 pounds in total. The two pounds I SHOULD havd lost this last week, plus the pound I gained... :(
Goal for week 4 = total loss of 8 lb
Actual for week 4 = total loss of 5 lb
So I am trying to get back on the band wagon this week.
I started today off on the right foot....
Breakfast
♦Quinoa with hemp hearts, sesaeme seeds, cinnamon and soy milk.
Coffee Break
♦Boiled Egg
♦Carrot Sticks
Lunch
♦ 6 Bean and Wild Rice Chilli
♦ Mandarin Orange
Afternoon Snack
♦Veggies
Supper
♦1/2 baked potato
♦ Baked Chicken
♦ Raw Veggies
Snack
♦Banana
Hopefully, I can get back on track this week and regain my momentum....
Wish me luck!!
In the mean time...Keep it "Natural"!
Just remember, the scale is not always one's friend! And in the first couple months of a healthier lifestyle, it's not always the best measure of success (people's weight fluctuates pretty wildly even within a single day). If the scale is stressing you out, put it away for a month! Keep going! Keep going!
ReplyDeleteWomen have a very hard time losing consistently each week. It's very normal to have blips, just don't let the blips win.
ReplyDeleteI agree. Keep eating well and exercising, and put the scale away for even a couple weeks. And remember, muscle weighs more than fat!
ReplyDeleteHow are you doing with your diet? Don't give up!
