So today was weigh in morning and let me say I am sadden. At first weigh in I was 219.6 and then I moved the scale to a surface which I thought was flat and I am 219. Either way I gained since last week. I am trying not to get discouraged because I am working out more than I have before, doing new things and I guess I wanted to see some results.
I get easily discouraged and if something does not happen the way I want then I just stop. I think that my diet has been 90% on target. I have been eating meals later, so my metabolism is not going right and ice cream or frozen yogurt is not my friend when I am eating 3 servings in one sitting (in my defense I did that only once).
I am trying to rationalize and am thinking since it is that time of the month is that making a difference? Is that a myth or does menstruating add some water weight? I don't know I just know that after my first week I gained either 1-1.6 pounds and I wanna cry. I talked to Danae about it and she said that her and Matt did this for 60 days and she lost 25lbs. Where is my pounds loss? Do I need to eat more calories, do I need to work out more, or do I just need to chill the freak out?!?!?!
I can say that with this being day 10 I am feeling good mentally (besides this self doubt from weight gain). I don't feel bloated, I feel like I can use more weight and I wore one of my shirts this weekend that fit but a bit tight in the arms, I am happy to say that it fit perfectly. So I will take losing inches. That was a nice victory for me.
Well I will continue on with this journey and hopefully it is just additional water weight. If not I will just continue to monitor but I will not quit.
