DAY 35

Get Ready To Weigh In

Day 35 this is the last day of the fourth week, congratulations for making it this far!!

Remember when you weigh in, it is just information. If you have only lost ½ pound celebrate that ½ pound. Some time the loss is not seen in the numbers on the scale but it is seen in inches which is by far a accurate number.

The book suggests carrying a small version on your weight graph with you in your wallet or purse on a small business card, I think that is a great idea and one that I am gong to use

My official weigh and graph day is Fridays.

Hey Bevy,

I am at the Airport on my way home, have not had a chance in the past 4 days to jump on the scale on a daily basis and to record only on Monday. I will be weighing myself in the morning and regardless of what the scales say my pants are very very loose this morning, and to me that is a better indicator of how my week went. I must say I am proud of myself for maintaining my food plan, I just drank large amounts of water in place of eating. I practiced not eating telling myself it was not an emergency and I'd be able to eat in couple hours.

I must say I m extremely happy I practiced what I have been learning over the past 3 weeks. Girl I had my ammo. ready, my advantages and response cards my snacks my practices, I did talk a lot to myself, I didn't want the other folks in the conference to think I was crazy lol so I did it in my head. But what the hell who cares i am on a mission to get healthy lose weight and I have no choice this is what I really want.

WAY TO GO MELVA!!!
                

Way to Go Melva.   I agree your pants are a big indicator of your success.

I did ok this weekend.   Water issues over the weekend, and a few slip ups.   I really wanted to emotionally eat.   I had a rough weekend on that aspect.    I forgot to look at my book yesterday until last night and realized that it was about emotional eating...LOL.    I am going to work on it today as well.  

I did decide after this weekend that I may go back through the book again, but really taking my time on the days that I feel I need to work on.   Originally I was just going to redo the days "I" thought was necessary, but I had a revelation this weekend, that I need to get it this time, so I am successful at losing, and later at maintaining.   

--April

April, I understand the "I need to get it  this time", I knew with in the first few days of starting this program that I was going to have to repeat many day...several times. 

I am really thinking right now about where I can improve when I redo the days, and how I really need to focus on this 110%  and give it all I have.

When we  re do our days it would great if we could post on  what day we are doing and what are we are  focusing on. What we are having trouble with and share any light bulb moments. 

Just an FYI everybody, as I said yesterday the pants were a bit more droopier but the scale this morning told me I lost 1#. Before Beck's I would have been upset the scale didn't go down anymore, but as it was stated to give myself a treat for every 1/2 # that means I get 2 things, staht are non food treats, so I went and had a pedicure and my eyebrows done, that was a treat...

I am glad to hear you all are going to read the book again. I was thinking the same thing I will re do the entire book just to reinforce what I have learned/learning ...
