I think a few posts back I was talking about a goal being to lose 10% of my original weight. I was totally wrong there, WW does it in 5% increments. I also mentioned how I hopped on the scale earlier this week and found I was at my personal goal of losing 5lbs/month on Tuesday or Wednesday and was uber excited about that. Today is official weigh in day and I did it at the same time I do every week (after wake up/morning business) and not only did I keep the 10lb goal I had met earlier, but I went even farther and passed my 5% goal!! I lost 3.8lbs this week and I couldn't even tell you how. Well, I guess I could, eat better, be active, don't over-eat... but seriously, 3.8? That's ridiculous! I didn't expect to meet my goal this soon. So I set another goal of the next 5% which just gets me closer and closer to my ideal weight and moving into maintenance. I can't really explain what caused me to lose more this week than others, but I don't want to focus on that. 1-2 lbs is manageable and healthy. 3.8 was a nice surprise to push me past my goal. (of course I think it's wicked awesome and I'm super proud and all but I'm trying to remain realistic.)
So a reward. I said I would reward myself when I met this goal. It's funny, I sort of feel like I didn't really meet it. Like, tomorrow if I got on the scale it would go up and today would just be a fluke. But I can't manipulate a machine and if it says I lost the weight than at least for today I did. Right? Does this even make sense? Oy I'm not going to stress about it. Instead, today is for celebration!
Woohoo!
