Shrinking Days of Summer: Week 3
16 Jun 2010 by Becca, 12 Comments »
*sigh*
I gained 2.6 pounds this week but I’m pretty sure it’s either water weight of muscle. Let’s look at the measurements.
Waist: -.2 inch
Hips: -1.2 inches
Thigh: Stayed the same
Chest: -.5 inch
So basically, I lost in all but thigh this week. That tells me it might be muscle, but it might also be water weight from pigging out a little yesterday, ahem.
I completed last week’s challenge and did 13.14 miles of exercise last week, woohoo!
So, this week’s goal is to actually count points, because I’ve been slacking in that area, however, I have been trying to eat portions (if it’s boxed food) rather than just scooping out what I want.

great measurements….proof that you are shrinking even if the scale isn't showing it! Keep it up Becca!

@Mendie, Thanks! I need the measurements to keep me motivated, you know how harsh the scale can be sometimes…

Great job, Becca! Even though your weight was up a bit, getting smaller is the goal. Sometimes it's those non-scale victories that mean the most.

@Bari, Thanks for stopping by! You are right, although I still wish the scale would match the inches.

since looking smaller is the real goal – great job and keep up the good work (minus the splurge!
) chug some water and i’m sure those extra pounds will come right off.

@Brooke, thanks girl! I am going to make it my own goal this week to drink a full 8 cups each day.

@Heather@ShrinkingJeans, I hope I can keep to it, we'll see. I think sometimes I get too cocky with the points and then well, binge. Gotta keep a rope on me.

Great measurements! You can do it next week… Sometimes it is just getting back to what we know works!
@Tiffany, You are definitely right. Weight Watchers works, but you have to stick to the points to see results. Thanks for stopping by.
