Okay, so I’ve been counting every single calorie I put in my mouth for 3 weeks now! I figured I would give using LoseIt! a shot for a while before reporting back.
During the past weeks, I have regulated my eating habits, influenced others to join me, and even LOST WEIGHT, which was the main goal in the first place! After the first week, my husband, Cliff decided to join me on LoseIt! and so did my mom! It has been really fun to be able to comment on each others progress and encourage each other when we lose a pound or even just a half a pound at a time.
At one point my mom got frustrated with the process because she had been counting her calories for days and had no actual weight loss yet. I told her to hang in there... That it took time for me as well, and within two days, she had lost 2lbs! The next day, she lost 2 more!
My recommendation is to weigh in only once per week, which is what my husband has done since he started. Because our weight changes from day to day, the best way to really track weight loss is to give it time…
(Even though you may have a strong urge like I do to step on the scale ALL.THE.TIME! Also, I can’t help it that every time I lose half a pound I am running to Cliff to tell him! – poor guy!)
Okay, Okay, I know you are dying to know how much I lost, so here it is:
I LOST 4 lbs so far!
(Only 13lbs
left!)
