Losing 100+ pounds – Weekly Update – Week 9

A few days ago I thought I would have better news to report this week. I’ve been exercising and watching my food decisions, and a day or two ago the scale was moving downward.

But today when I got on for the official Tuesday update, the scale just didn’t cooperate. I’m back up 2 pounds… so back to a total loss of 5 pounds.

I have to admit – I’m not liking that number. I don’t like this yo-yo weight thing. I feel slimmer, I feel better this last week. The Fat Loss Quickie approach of doing smaller doses of interval training throughout the day is helping my overall mindset.

Also a positive this week, is that I found a pair of jeans in the back of my closet that I had tucked away because I couldn’t get them on. And guess what – I can get them on! (just don’t ask me to sit down in them )

So, that’s cool that I have a visual, physical measurement of success – something I can try on and see how much better it is fitting. Definitely motivating.

I’d love for those jeans to be fitting comfortably enough for me to wear them while travelling to and from the conference in April. So, now not only do I have a weight goal, but also a clothing goal – and for me that is  a good thing.  New clothes to wear motivates me
