My chosen weigh-in
day is Sunday for two reasons: 1) it's the start of a new week and 2) to
dissuade me from having a food fest blowout all weekend. Because the 4th of July is on a Saturday this
year, I thought about weighing in Saturday morning rather than Sunday. It wasn't because I wanted to eat tons and
tons, but I knew that we would be having baked potato salad and burgers. I was worried the food and increased sodium
would cause me a gain. I'm not going to
lie, it took me a while to make the decision.
I really wanted to have a nice time on the 4th without worrying about
food. In the end, I decided not to step
on the scale Saturday. I felt like I
would be cheating myself if I weighed in early so I didn't. Still, I thought about weighing to see what the number was so I would know
just how careful I should be, but I didn't do that either. Instead, I went on with my day, enjoyed
myself , tried to be careful, but still exceeded my daily calorie limit by over
500 calories (brownies are my weakness).
It wasn't a blowout and the scale reported a three pound loss for the
week. I was surprised to have a nice
loss for two weeks in a row, but I won't be complaining anytime soon
either. This morning I weighed 380 and
am now looking forward to being in the 370's soon.
This has been a
relaxing three day weekend and I enjoyed myself immensely. I'm feeling tired and will close for
now. How was your weekend? Did you overeat or stay the course?
Thanks for stopping
by,
Tammy
