I weigh everyday.... and I just noticed something

KelLifts

Now I know I haven't lost much. But... this was pretty great to me. I log my weight every day in my planner. I see the fluctuations everyday and some days I feel awesome... some days not so much. On the days I feel awful I work out a little bit longer and watch what I eat a little more. On days I feel awesome, I work out and enjoy it as a fun activity and feel good. I have been doing this a little over a month. Working out has become fun for me. Strange how that happened. Anyway... I was looking through my planner of this last month. My first week I lost 5 pounds. Second week .2 lbs lost. Third week 2 lbs lost, fourth week 1.2 lbs gained ( I was on my period... tmi I know) and then finally this fifth week.... 2.4 lbs lost. For a total of 8.4 pounds in a month. Wow. I am blown away by that. I have a sluggish thyroid and thought it would make it so much harder for me to lose weight. But.... I am encouraged by my first month to really stick to my plan, because I want to change. I want to look better and feel better about myself. Anyway.... yay! If you read this... thanks lol. Good Luck fellow MFPs! We got this! lol

That's really good! I know it can be easy to get caught up in the day to day fluctuations, but when you look at the bigger picture, you're doing amazing.

Thank you for sharing as this may be extremely frustrating when there is no weigh change or weigh gain due to TOM. Congratulations. Keep up the good work!

I log it on a calender every time i lose weight. see how long it took to lose the weight and see how much i lose per month. it keeps me motivated. though since im already at a lower weight the weight loss is getting a lot harder. Dx

Great job...I was weighing daily but didn't work for me when Iost it seem to give me the ok to eat more when in reality I knew it was wrong. So I am weighing in weekly and finally had a loss.

Good for you! That scale can be definately motivating! I totally see fluctuations threw the week -- at one point it seemed like I was gaining weight as the week went on, but then I came back for a loss! I am trying to ease myself away from the scale hahaha!
