This journey of weight loss has been a continuous battle for me. In the past month and a half I have been frustrated with the weight the scale showed. I thought that by starting this challenge I would see the pounds come off each time I weighed myself but that is not the case. I am eating healthier and exercising more but apparently I am not doing a good enough job at the two because every other week I gain weight. I currently weigh 188.6 pounds which is the same exact weight I weighed two weeks ago but over a pound more than I weighed at my last weigh in. I weigh 3 pounds less than I did at the start of the Knock Out The Fat Weight Loss Challenge. My BMI is at 30.4.
This week should be a challenge because I will be out of town at a blogging conference for the last half of it. I am sure I will be faced with a lot of unhealthy eating options so I am bringing my own healthier options. I also plan to put fruits and vegetables in a cooler to take with for the road trip so I don’t get tempted by fast food restaurants. For exercise I will be going on the morning walks and hope to find a gym at the hotel. I am also going to remember what I learned a few weeks ago- “moderation”. I will let myself enjoy my time at the conference and indulge in something I really want to eat but will do so in moderation.
(Disclosure: I am part of the George Foreman Knock Out The Fat Weight Loss Challenge. I am being compensated for participating in this 90-day challenge but all thoughts are my own.)
It is SO frustrating when the scale doesn’t seem to reflect our efforts. I feel ya.
Have fun at TypeA! I’m sad not to be going this year. Can’t wait to hear all about it!
Keep working on it and making those healthy choices … they will pay off!!
