Comments:
Well, it was going to hit at some point, but all is not quite as it seems.
One of the recommendations for weight-loss is not to weigh in daily, but over the years of doing it anyway, I've come to recognise that the scales can vary wildly, and it no longer has the emotional hit for me. It's just data, and I'm less interested in the number each day, than the overall trend.
Getting past that emotional hit has another effect though; I recognise that my weight can vary wildly from day-to-day.
Back in 2012 when I lost all that weight the first time around, when I had a week like this, where the weekly public weigh-in was a much smaller loss than expected, I'd be devastated.
The daily weigh-ins mean that I've seen my weight fluctuate, I know that a lot of it is water weight, and I also broke through the 160kg barrier yesterday for the first time since July 2023.
I also drank a lot of liquid yesterday, with over a litre of sugar-free lemon-mango Solo, which is something I'm low-key obsessed with right now (and isn't cola, yay!)
Some of these weigh-ins won't be what I hoped, and I'm OK with that. The trend, however, is down, which is what I planned.
