Ugh... once again I had a plus number this week. Why?? I was fully expecting to lose weight this week. I exercised with more intensity than I have before, hoping to make up for my .8 gain last Saturday.
Today is Thursday, but I weighed in today because I have other plans on Saturday morning. So I had a few things going against me: I was wearing different clothes, it was the end of the day instead of the beginning, and it had only been 5 days since my last weigh-in. But I was still disappointed. This week I gained 0.4 pounds, bringing my total to 21.4 pounds lost.
I brought up my frustrations in the meeting, and one of the other members told me that I probably have been working out too hard and my muscles are retaining water. I need to slow down and let my body recover. So I'll give that a try for this next week!
Today was my 16th meeting so I got my 16-week charm! Also on Wednesday this week I put on my belt and it was too big! I had to use a kitchen knife to make a new hole just so I could cinch it a little tighter! So that made me feel great. Even though I may not be losing pounds I know I am losing inches.
