Weight Check, Week 2
Last week: 178.5 (Wii Fit), 180.2 (Bathroom Scale)
This week: 172.1 (Wii Fit), 173.8 (Bathroom Scale)
Okay, that’s not good. That’s nearly a seven-pound drop over the course of one week. I think it’s mostly dehydration, to tell you the truth. In addition to not really eating much, I haven’t had much to drink either. I mean, there’s busting a plateau, and then there’s going a little crazy. This is a little crazy.

Weight Check, Week 1 of Sleep Failure. ;)
Last week: 182.1 (Wii Fit), 183.6 (Bathroom Scale)
This week: 180.5 (Wii Fit), 182.2 (Bathroom Scale)
Gah… I feel teased! So close on both to that elusive 180 mark! I mean, technically the Wii Fit has me right there, but I tend to feel it’s not ‘official’ until I hit it on the Bathroom Scale.
Next week for sure. I swear it.

Sleep, Day 7: Compliments!
I screwed up sleep again, but church was fun this morning!
As much as I once whined about no one noticing my weight loss before, I really owe everyone around me an apology now. Admittedly, a loss of 60 pounds is bound to be more noticeable than a loss of 40, but still.. when you think about it, 40 pounds of a 245-pound woman is a loss of …what, 16% of my body weight? Where as 60 pounds is dropping my weight by a fourth of myself. It’s still a lot of weight regardless, but the overall change in my body is much larger.

Weight Check, Week 4.5
Starting Weight Overall: 241 (Wii Fit), 245 (Bathroom Scale)
Last week: 185.4 (Wii Fit), 186.4 (Bathroom Scale)
This week: 184.2 (Wii Fit), 187.2 (Bathroom Scale)
Uh…. NOOOOO! No, no no no no!
Not only didn’t I lose, I GAINED. Well, okay, that depends on which scale you’re going by, but STILL…. I tend to rely on the Bathroom Scale moreso than the Wii Fit, so …
Man, why is it that when I think I’m doing really badly, I lose? This week I really didn’t think I was doing badly. I thought I was more or less okay, even Friday Night notwithstanding. I guess this teaches me.

Lent, Day 32: Sweating the Weigh-In
Yeah, yeah, I know… I always sweat the weigh-ins. But this week I have actually not cheated and hopped onto the scale at any point, so I really have no idea what to expect tomorrow. It’s been a weird week, since as I mentioned yesterday I’m coming down off of a week where I’ve had a pretty healthy appetite following three or four weeks of having NO appetite. If the no-appetite weeks hurt my metabolism at all, this week will probably be bad.

Weight Check, Week 3.5
Starting Weight Overall: 241 (Wii Fit), 245 (Bathroom Scale)
Last week: 191.3 (Wii Fit), 192.2 (Bathroom Scale)
This week: ???? (Wii Fit), 189.4 (Bathroom Scale)
Okay, I should explain this… I was at the lake on Weight Check day, obviously, so I didn’t actually get to weigh in as per usual. When we got home I weighed in and the scale said 190.0. However, this was midway through the day, not first thing in the morning. I weighed again this morning and was told I weighed 188.8. I decided to average the two and go from there.
So..between 3 and 4 pounds this week. Weight watchers is suitably unhappy. I never did weigh in on the Wii Fit, but frankly…just being within 10 pounds of my Spa Day is enough satisfaction for me.
The Wii Fit can wait until next week.

Weigh In: Lent, Week 2.5
Starting Weight Overall: 241 (Wii Fit), 245 (Bathroom Scale)
Last week: 193.1 (Wii Fit), 194.2 (Bathroom Scale)
This week: 191.3 (Wii Fit), 192.2 (Bathroom Scale)
Yay! Right around 2 pounds. I know it’s probably irritating that I keep saying, ‘Wow! I totally didn’t expect that this week!’, but I’m not kidding… every time, I expect to find I’m finally hitting that much-feared plateau, but so far my weight loss has been either steady or surprisingly higher than expected. It’s amazing.
I will say, though, that this morning neither the Wii Fit nor Weight Watchers yelled at me.

Wow… 5 pounds. Weight Watchers is throwing a fit at me, and I guess I don’t blame them… but wow…
This puts me within four pounds of my second 10%!

Sleep, Day 12: Facebook and Fridge Graph
I’m going to have to just give it up with this sleep goal. It’s a great idea in theory, but I just keep blowing it. I’m doing fine on everything else, granted. I’m walking a ton and staying true to my ADF diet plan, so I’m not too worried about it. I just keep screwing up the sleep thing. Meh.
