I decided to work the sparkpeople.com website questionnaire to see how many calories it takes to lose lbs. per week. My range is 1330-1680.
I used Weight Watchers healthy guidelines and tried very hard to use the web site and truthfully did a good job. I also had the online site analyze what I had done and it was nice to see that I was within the healthy ranges that they want. I also weighed myself on my scale before I ate just to see how I did for this morning and remember I'm only losing an average of a pound a week on WW.
Well, this was shocking because I lost a pound overnight, not for the entire week.
I am very curious what kind of loss I will have for the next weigh day and also I won't know when I can weigh in because I won't have my work schedule until tomorrow but I do know that calories are easier to find online, easier to work with when you get the N.I. in restaurants and just on the labels themselves. I am very hopeful that this may very well be the answer because I am just doing very mediocre with WW and have been blaming it all on my age, activity,etc. It may not be my fault after all.
