Loss this week: 1.2 pounds. This is a three-week average of 1.9, a nine-week average of 1.7 which is about my overall average. Loss for the Month of February: 5.6 pounds. I am 7.8 pounds above the halfway point, my next goal. Loss since August 10: 48.4; total loss: 67.2; pounds to goal: 82.8.
The averages don’t reveal there was actually a downward trend in the last month, but I am looking for the cause. So far I’m seeing:
- May be eating too few calories again.
- May be eating too few meals.
- May have needed to increase calories when starting back on workouts.
- Water drinking is way down and need to get that back.
Today, I ate a smaller breakfast earlier and plan to work on eating *something* every 3-4 hours. I had almost cut out snacking at night but eating dinner late was happening too often.
My diet has gone to almost all lean protein, green veggies and fruits with a few nuts and seeds and a little cheese. I do occasionally have a *treat* of whatever is special or served up, and occasionally buy a candy bar.
I’m really thinking the too few calories or meals per day is the big culprit, so will let you know how my change in that area today is working. Working out is going great!
What are you working on today?
