Well this will be a regular post on either Thursdays or Fridays, depending on when I can get it posted. Thursday is my official weigh in day now. I picked it with no scientific method, but only that it seemed like a good day.
So I am officially on week three of follwing Myfitnesspal and tracking my calories and exercise. I have done some sort of exercise almost every day and stayed below my calorie intake. I have lost about 4 lbs now but I feel better overall. The last time I did cardio at the gym, my heart rate stayed fairly normal. Before, it was sky-high! I thought my heart would fail me and I'd die a preamature death of heart explosion. I am a lot more motivated to go out and do some things that before seemed so hard. Lately I started trying to jog. I have made a tiny bit of progress but boy it is difficult.
As for eating, I am so much aware of what goes in my mouth. I have been doing really well with portions and making better decisions. It is all such a learning lesson, and not a diet, but a lifestyle change. I am in this for the long haul.
So the results for todays weigh in.. well I was apparently up 0.2 lbs. I've already beat myself up over this today and think I have discovered why it is up instead of down. I am doing everything right so far and this is just a hurdle. I am OK with it now. And will just keep on truckin. I am sure it won't be the last time my weight goes the wrong way. So forward ...march and off we go for another week full of temptations, and victories.
