Char Gets Thin's Journal, 07 February 2014

Well, finally seeing results after a very frustrating week! But I upped my exercise by incorporating jogging into my usually long walks. This week I changed my hikes from 3-4 miles a day to 5-7 miles a day, all done at a nice 3 1/2 mph...and saw small improvements in weight. Yesterday I kicked it up another notch, and for the first 2.7 outward leg of our trek, I did a jog/walk combo, then walked back...and today saw a .8 pound loss. I'LL TAKE IT! lol And last weekend I gained .8 pounds...and it took me all week to slowly get that pound off, so to have a loss on TOP of that pound? I'm happy with the results this week!

NOW...the biggie is NOT gaining again this weekend! Already warned the hubby, this weekend we play it straight, I'm not easing up because HE says it's the weekend, relax a little! Last week my "relaxing" only involved raising my calories up to 1500 a day, and shortening my walks to 2 miles Saturday, 4 miles Sunday, both at 3 mph...and THAT cost me a .8# gain! Nope, ain't going there again until I get to goal!

Wishing everyone a wonderful OP weekend, and remember...we CAN do this! :)

Oh I know what you mean... and if my husband gives me the slightest excuse I take it. I, too, find eating what is supposed to be a small amount of calories means I put on weight. I know that sometimes I fool myself about how many calories I have eaten, but when I am absolutely sure that I have only eaten around 1200 a day, I don't lose any weight. And I can put it on. I only seem to lose if I keep to 800 calories a day or less. So that's what I must do.
