And… I hope John doesn’t mind, but i’m gonna borrow this ideas from him because I think it’s GREAT!
Things I did GREAT this week:
- I lifted weights 3 times
- I tracked my food on sparkpeople
- I ate pretty clean all week
Things I did not so GREAT this week:
- I didn’t do scheduled cardio
- I ate pretty bad on the “weak”end
These past two days i’ve been struggling with FTG (fat girl thinking) a lot. I think the scale weight had alot to do with it - and I let it get to me. I have to constantly be reminding myself that it’s just a number on the scale and that I still lost fat and inches… My goal was to be under 200 lbs by Feb - but it looks like that won’t happen for another 2 weeks or so I hope… we’ll see & i’ll keep ya’ll updated.

They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery - no problem! I love the “weak” end - that’s a good name for it.

Muscles weigh more than fat. You’re doing well. Keep doing what you’re doing. The numbers on the scale is just a number. A more accurate measurement would be if your clothes is fitting looser or the tighter clothes are becoming more comfortable.
