This week I have started to feel quite a bit better. My sleeping has reduced. I havn't had to be in bed at ten to cope the next day. I have been waking earlier. I am no longer the person that feels cold but the one in shirt sleeves. I have been feeling bouncy and full of energy. My boss has said that I seem happier. My jeans are looser, not just on the stomach but all up the legs....
So I expected a good evening tonight at Fat Fighters. How wrong can you be..... I gained two pounds.
Maybe I am paying for last week when it was my birthday and we ate lots of bad things. Maybe my body gains and loses weight in a delay. Maybe my moon time is going to hit soon and I am retaining water. We shall see over this next week.
Still I can't very well give my troll bracelet back, it is on it's way here and I want it....
Maybe next week I will lose loads....

As a person who was a slave to the scale in my jockey days, I have to tell you...do NOT get caught in the numbers game...yes, it's a good way to track your progress but it's more important that you're FEELING better...THAT is a better barometer of your weight loss....and yes, women's weights fluctuate enormously week-by-week -- which, I might add, is just FABULOUS when you're an apprentice jockey and have to tack 105 lbs. :(
ReplyDeleteYou rock...

As long as your feeling better, that is the main thing. Forget those numbers on the scale. I know that is easier said than done. My husband hides my scale cause I could get on it every day. I limit myself to once a month. I even have searched my house with no luck! Keep doing what you are doing. Take care.
ReplyDeleteI know... but...

We don't have scales either. I remember getting a little obsessed with them. F has some at work and he keeps weighing himself at work. It is just the weekly weigh in at Fat Fighters for me...
I have to agree with others here- YAY for feeling better though! that is EXCELLENT. As Andrew becomes more into running he's been fighting that ever insidious monster- calorie counter...
ReplyDeleteIn any case, one or two pounds can actually be accounted for by water- so if you had weighed yourself later in the day you may have actually been back to two pounds less.
ALSO- muscle weighs more than fat- don't forget that :)
