Sept 09:…..188.2…..(trend weight 187.8) A bad weight after travel, medical issues/worries and a bad death in my extended family. No more eating my emotions. Changing it today.

Notes: so frustrating. I suspect this is due to some chili powder I ate yesterday with my watermelon. It’a called Tajin and super super high in sodium. I had a little craving and completely regret that decision now. I hope I can manage to bring this back down by tomorrow. Today, lots of water to flush that out. 2 -

@mari_moulin I know how much I want the scale to go down so I can only imagine your frustration. Have you tried doing body measurements? It is cool to see inches lost, especially when the scale isn’t cooperating.2

Notes: A little fearless motivation coming your way…..
“You might be going through something right now… it might be frustrating… you might be working hard to change and not seeing any results…
You may have tried ALMOST everything and NOTHING has worked… You can be frustrated… but you can NOT QUIT… Because quitting is the ONLY WAY TO GUARANTEE FAILURE. QUITTING IS THE ONLY WAY TO GUARANTEE THE SUFFERING STAYS.
No matter how you feel… KEEP GOING.”

Hi Michelle. Yes I also do measurements on Saturday's which is my official weekly weigh in day. Over the first month of my training I’ve lost some centimeters all around except my arms. My biceps have grown lol. And In the past 2 weeks there has been no change in measurements. I do see a physical difference tho. I can see much more muscle definition in my arms shoulders and thighs.2 -
