A horrible morning turned into a good morning :)
I stepped on the scale this morning just HOPING that maybe I would see 200. I know I just weighed in yesterday at 201.6 but a girl can dream right? Besides, I have been losing about a pound a day for the last week (however the hell that happened), so it wasn’t a totally delusional idea. Lo and behold, its up 2 pounds :(
But, I didn’t eat great yesterday, and I definitely didn’t drink enough water, so most of it is probably just water weight, and I’m trying to remind myself of that. Besides, I lost like 5 pounds this week, so I haven no reason to be upset about this.
On a very bright note, I calculated how much I need to lose a week to meet my UGW by next May (which is when I plan on moving).
1.4 POUNDS A WEEK. ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? THAT IS COMPLETELY DO-ABLE!
At my current rate, I’ll be there in 6 months!
This whole time I’ve been thinking that only losing a pound or 2 a week is too slow. We’d all like to be at our UGW in just a few short months. But today has made me realize that I have far surpassed the necessary weekly loss and I now feel great about it. So today I’m not going to the gym, because I can’t move on account of working my ass off the last two days (btw, my new favorite thing is kettlebell swings), and I plan on just relaxing until I go to work. AND DRINKING AS MUCH WATER AS HUMANLY POSSIBLE, haha.
I hope everyone is having a wonderful day today!
