Weekly Weigh-in - May 17th, 2009
This morning’s weigh-in was 247.6, which is 2.2 pounds down from last week. The 9-week gain, however, is 10.8lbs (1.2/week) which is usually the ‘number’ I look at to see how things are going overall. The other little compulsive number I look at is how many days I’ve been ‘on plan’ primarily with food. I still consider a maintenance week ‘on plan’ since I accomplished what I wanted to. So this is day 19 on plan with food.
Scary how quickly my weight went up, isn’t it? The quick drop appears to be over. I suppose I’d hoped that it would last another week or so, although I’m in the middle of my period at the moment, and my weight is often wonky around that time. I did briefly see 233.6 at the end of March, so seriously, no congratulations until then!
Next week’s plan is:
Continue the Break-in phase of New Rules of Lifting, 3 days a week. 30-45 min walks 5 days a week (with my mother), aiming for 45 mins on non-lifting days. For May at least that I’ll do 2000 on non-workout days and 2250-2300 on lifting days and see how that goes.
And the depressing little graph…
Well, what’s done is done….all one can do is learn from it, and looking at the graph now, it’s pretty apparent that you have, so rejoice in that!!!
Yep, I’ve learned that I really do have to track, all the time. And that when my sleep patterns are disrupted I can’t control my eating habits. Some of these things I already knew, hence my annoyance at not following them.
