Weigh-In Wednesday


Current Weight: 185.8
Body Fat: 59.5 lbs.
Body Fat Percentage: 32.1%
BMI: 28.1

Total Weight Loss: 5 lbs!

Well, this is a great way to start things off! I am down 5 whole pounds this week! What a great birthday present! This past week has been all about getting the hang of tracking my points and pinpointing easy ways to cut down on high-point foods. I have definitely found places where I can make easy substitutions or cut out things entirely. I dipped way into my weekly points allowance this week but surprisingly did not max out. I even had a few days where I couldn’t even eat all my daily points.

The biggest change I’ve made so far has been cutting back on beer and random snacking. I did enjoy some wine over the weekend (which killed my daily points allowance pretty quickly) but I balanced that by not over indulging in snacks. I’ve cut out some of my weekday snacks and replaced those with fruit (0 points!).

I know this upcoming week will be a challenge. Between my birthday and visiting family this weekend, I expect my weekly points to be at about 0 this time next week. My goal is to make sure to balance out days of indulging in fast food with drinking more water and trying to get a workout or two in. I definitely plan to treat myself to some of my favorite foods this week but I don’t want to completely undo this great start I’ve made.

My main challenges now will be sustaining some of the food changes I’ve made while increasing my daily activity (and maybe actually earning an activity point or two!)
