Sunday Weigh-in

Hey guys,

Last week 251.2

This week 248.7

Almost forgot to weigh in! knowing I would be accountable helped me stick to a plan. Back under 250 lbs again! Hopefully eventually I will get under my low of 247 lbs! Good day today, walked 9 holes of golf, played ok.

Sounds like you're on the right track.

I weigh myself every morning first thing. I've gotten it down to a science where I know my weight pre and post bowel movements, dehydrated or not, etc. Then I track the nutrition (not calories) so I get in enough protein, fiber, etc.

I also track steps to make sure I'm doing something everyday. The more I do, the more I am willing to do.

It's somewhat of a self fulfilling prophecy on health.

Funny!

I weigh myself with my shoes and clothes on. I know most like to weigh themselves with their shoes off and only a towel, underwear or even naked. But I like to think my weight is as people see me, also it helps me when I do go to the Doctors, take my shoes off to be weighed and its a couple lbs lighter than what I think I am.

Great idea with the steps. I am fortunate to be in an office with a 2 floor large Storage warehouse behind me, I'm able to walk around it each day. Around and through the hallways of each floor is around 4,000 steps. So I go once in the morning for 30-35 mins, once in afternoon 30-35 mins, and some days I am able to get in about 15 mins of steps at another storage bldg down the street, so by the time I leave to go home I have my 8,500-10,000 steps at a good pace. Then once I get home I walk the dog about a mile or so (his pace of course) and that is about another 2,000 steps. I'm pretty consistent in doing this keeping track on my phone.

Now I just need to work on journaling the nutritional part. Although I am Intermittent Fasting I don't want to do like some and over eat in that 8 hour window. So I'm back to using MFP. Only been about been a week but a good start. Thanks for the encouragement!

Glad you joined us Willie!
