Wednesday Weigh -in

Second week of posting my weigh-in....it's actually hard for me to do.  (Posting it....not getting on the scale.)  I feel self-conscious...like everyone knows if I ate healthy or not...which is the point ?  right?


Highest weight:  205
Weight on day of surgery:  180
Goal weight:  140-142
Last week: 144
Weight today:  145

A GAIN????  That's not what I was going for. Maintenance is tricky. 

I weighed in 4days in a row at 145.0...whenever my weight is EXACTLY the same, I know I am not eating enough.  I added in an extra 140 calories to my daily budget to see if that would break the cycle.  It did...weighed in at 144.4 & 144.6 the last two days.  Now I am starting to wonder IF maybe I don't need those extra calories??  I really don't want to gain.  I will start to cut back on some of my exercise since I go back to work tomorrow.

I guess I will have  to see what happens over the next few days and re-evaluate.
Happy Wednesday.

  1. Both weeks this summer during vacation weeks when I know I ate more than I would on a work week, I lost more than work weeks.

    Freaking strange.

  2. We aren't judging! You are doing awesome. Weighing in for a gain sucks, especially when you don't feel like you've done anything you shouldn't. Getting back to work has straightened me right up. Now I just need to get a weekend job! :)

  3. Love the cartoon! I feel the same way about the weekly weigh-ins (I do mine on Fridays), but it really does help keep me on track. It also helps me realize that my weight isn't just a result of calories in/calories out.

  4. I wouldn't worry about a 0.something gain, lady. You're in maintenance, there'll be ups and downs! I'm all over the place weight-wise, and honestly... it's no big deal.

    No one's looking at us saying, "Gross... I can really see that extra pound on her today!" ;)

  6. Don't be so hard on yourself! You are really doing great-- and being vigilant is excellent, except if you use it to beat yourself up!
    Hang in there and keep on doing the great work you are doing.
