I have a sinking feeling that I gained weight this week and since I weigh in tomorrow I decided to get on my scale at home (I never do this). It was first thing in the morning and it read 172. I went to spin class, came home and weighed myself again and it said 171. Of course I began to have that feeling of dread of no weight loss since I will be getting on the scale tomorrow at the program, but then I remembered last weeks lesson. Focus on the fat loss and not the weight loss.
I did weight training three times this week and I did exercise four out of five days this week so if I don't lose anything then it will likely be due to the fact that I have been trying new keto recipes this week, not journaling my food and not having a calorie deficit. I have no idea if there has been a calorie deficit since I haven't been counting. So, the fact of the matter is that I would only have myself to blame.
I caught myself being negative about my weight today. I walked into Target to buy a shirt and I bought my normal size; large. I thought for a second, "wait, I lost weight." then I thought, "but after losing 20 lbs I am still 170." What kind of sabotaging, negative thought process is that?!? I bought the shirt and I am wearing it proudly today. 20 lbs is a lot and I am proud of it!!
