I’m a bit late posting my weight loss diary for this week as I haven’t been feeling too great – I seem to have caught a bug and whilst it seems to be going away now, I still don’t feel 100%.
After being so motivated last week to get 4lbs this week and hit my stone, I failed. Miserably. I was good most of the week but the weekend came and I lost my way. I still exercised and hoped that would make somewhat of a difference. But it didn’t. I didn’t lose this week, I didn’t even maintain – I managed to put on half a pound. It means I have still lost half a stone but I now have an extra half a pound to get to that stone. I really want that this week!
I picked up some fitness sheets from my consultant so I can fill in the exercise I do. If I do a certain amount consistently for 4 weeks I will get my bronze Body Magic award and that is what I am aiming for. I am currently walking at least 1.5 miles a day for 5 days of the week and trying to do at least ten minutes on the exercise bike every day or at least every other day. Half of my Slimming World ladies have also agreed to do the village Fun Run at 5k – I think it will be great if we all do it together, we will all get our body magic in AND be able to spur each other on.
I know half a pound on isn’t much in the grand scheme of things but I still am very disappointed. Here’s to working it off this week and getting back on the weight loss horse. I can do this, right?
Don’t worry 🙂 in the grand scheme of things .5lb is so tiny! Just keep it up 🙂
You can still do it lovely! Just keep at it 🙂 x
That is nothing to worry about 5 lbs is nothing! Hopefully it is a blip and you will continue your journey with no problems. Good luck.
Half a lb is nothing. I know its not what you want to hear but it will soon come back off 🙂
It’s difficult when there are little bumps in the road but it’s important to see them for just that bumps, not failures. It seems like you have so much planned exercise wise, it sounds like lots of fun especially the run! I
It’s not easy, trying to lose weight, and it seems to follow no logical path. I wish there was an easy way to do it! You’re getting there though, and that half pound could be from anything – water retention, hormones, etc. You’ll get there eventually, persevere! 🙂
You will get there eventually. Just keep at it.
weight fluctuates, i bet if you’d have weighed an hour earlier or later that 0.5lb wouldn’thave been there. And weight is just a number, so long as you’re feeling slimmer, you feel comfy in your clothes and you’re happy that’s all that matters. Just get yourself better XXX
I feel you…..trying to loose a small amount can get really annoying, I fluctuate through pounds, up and down every day. Depends on how heavy the food is, how much liquid is in your body.
Don’t forget…. Muscle weighs more than fat!!! So that half a pound could be muscle that you’ve made!!
Oh that half a pound will be decimated in no time at all, it is just a test to keep you motivated to get rid of it x
