Weigh In- Week 4

So, let me answer the question I put out there to all of you. I weigh myself many times a day, every day.  I have the scale right outside of my bathroom.  So after I shower or go to the bathroom, I weigh myself.  I am a bit obsessive about it but I can't seem to stop it.  My husband has told me that I should stop because I get worked up about my number when I do not see it going down but I see it going up.  I also get really annoyed when it stays the same too.  Now, I justify it to myself and I justified to my husband too by saying that I read that if you weigh yourself daily you are more likely to lose weight because you are more accountable to your weight loss journey.  I truly did read this but it probably doesn't mean weighing yourself 5 to 10 times a day.  On weigh in days I weigh myself more than my average.  I kind of want to stop the compulsive nature of my weigh ins but I can't seem to stop.

Oh well, with that being said, I weighed before I went to my Weight Watcher meeting.  I always do this!  This time I was up.  What the F***!  How could I be up!  I was perfect with my points all week and I should not, no I could not be up!  Right there, I felt like I failed.  I even told my husband, "Yep, I gained this week."  So, I would just have to go to the meeting and see...


After weigh in...

I am down 1.2 pounds!!!!!  Woohoo!!!  How is that possible?  Well, like I said, I have been perfect with my points.  I should be down.  Thank goodness I am.  I do not know what I will do when I really do have a week where I gain weight.  I think I may actually shed some tears.  But that will wait.  This week, I celebrate in the fact that I loss.  And with that loss, it brings me within range of 5% off of my body weight lost.  I told myself, I wouldn't buy new clothes until I had lost 10%.  So, if it takes me 5 weeks to lose 5%, I would predict at least another 7 weeks to lose another 5% bringing me into September.  I know I could do it faster if I would drink more water AND exercise. Hmmm...that gives me somethings to think about...

Good night everyone. Dream of a healthy, happy you! I know that is what I am going to do. :)
