In our last (JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS) Round 2, we began to see some significant changes in weight loss and logged the good with the not so good days! We are learning every day what works and what doesn't on this journey! It's so great to have short term goals and to break up our long term goals in smaller increments so it doesn't always seem so overwhelming. So Starting on May 3 to May 12 JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, will begin Round 3! -Lets see what we can do! Anyone else game?
Weigh yourself? Controversial you may say? Well for me personally, checking the scale can be motivating. I read in a study of 3,500 people who maintained 60 or more pounds of weight loss for at least a year, researchers from the National Weight Control Registry found that 44 percent weighed themselves every day. Another study in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine found that overweight people are six times more likely to lose weight if they weigh themselves at least once a day. I don't about you, but it helps me and motivates me to keep going or to tweak what I did the day before. I never weigh more than just once in the morning. Our weight fluctuates constantly throughout the day with what we drink and consume, so only make it a 'once a day' rule for sanity sake.
Let's give it our best 10 days ever for an inspirational jump start to Spring and Summer!
Here is what to do: Post your daily weight and little comments along the way of how your day went. Post everyday to let us know how you're doing! Copy and paste the days in your response--tell us how much you lost and other non scale victories you'd like to share.
On your mark

Interesting... I'm in. I already check my weight every morning exactly for the reasons you mentioned. It raises my awareness and starts my day off with the right mindset to stay on track for my weight loss goals.1

Of course I'll do this again. Let's see if I can kick this sucker into high gear over the next ten days. Goal is at least 7# in 10. No more Sunday binges ! Tomorrow may not be great, as it feels like I'm holding water from drinking a lot after activities and eating

I'd like to join! Love the idea of a short term goal on the road to the long term ones! I have a 7 week old baby so ready to start shifting the weight.

It's a little bit crazy. Was under my calorie goal. May be too much sodium.
