Progress Report: Week 2
Weight: 259 pounds
BMI: 37.2
I lost no mother f&#*ing weight this week.
F&$%!
I did go into this weigh in very nervous, b/c while I do not think my diet has been completely horrible, it could have been alot better…but…I worked my ASS off in the gym this week, I still had the hope that that would have counted for and help me lose at least something. I was even at the gym THIS MORNING, for gods sake!
I could say “its okay, weeks like this happen” and I could say “week 2 on the biggest loser always sucks, its normal”…well, I can say it, but I am not going to use it as rationale, because I am PISSED at myself for letting this happen. It’s too early for a plateau, I just got careless with the food and it nullified all of the good work I did this week.
The goal calorie burn this week is 13,000…on any machine. I’m also going to incorporate weights and keep a stranglehold on my calorie intake. It’s too early and I’m still too big to see a number like that.
As far as the Biggest Loser and Team Lean Challenges at work, so far no one else has lost anything either, in my unit or on my team…which still isn’t comforting.
Hope everyone else has a better day.
Don’t be discouraged! You are doing great! If I eat a salty dinner the night before weigh-in then I don’t see any loss. I’ve learned to not eat for 2 days before my weigh-in. (kidding) Seriously, I can gain 5 pounds in water weight from high sodium intake. It eventually works itself off over the next few days. Are you drinking a lot of water? Anyways, don’t feel down on yourself. I think it’s an accomplishment to maintain my weight, so I say good for you!
Take a day off of the gym. Wednesday night, for example. Just stick with your normal eating routine limiting calories — I bet you’ll lose some weight overnight.
Just try it and see. I might be wrong, but give it a shot.
