In addition to getting weighed in by my Lecture Prone Weight Watchers Leader every week I also check in with the Wellness Machine at work every few weeks.
In the past 7 weeks I’ve made the following progress..according to the machine:
The good:
I’ve lost 6.8 lbs
My body fat mass 3.3 lbs less
My BMI is 1 lower it went from 31 to 30
I’m not shrinking, I’m still 5’8″
The bad:
I’m still 35% fat with a poor % of body fat
I’m still overweight
please note: I’m fully clothed when I do this, but I do take off my shoes and watch. When I weigh in at Weight Watchers I wear leggings and a t-shirt and I weigh in first thing on Saturday mornings before breakfast. I’m usually 1-3 pounds lighter at Weight Watchers than on the machine. I weighed in today at Weight Watchers as was 194.0
Yes, I’m going in the right direction, albeit, slowly.
It’s awesome that you are losing about a pound a week. It is a loss that shows up over time – which we all have seen on your blog. You keep saying that you are not losing and that you are at a plateau…..? You ARE LOSING WEIGHT!:)
Don’t worry, the other numbers will catch up if you keep on keeping on.
This is good stuff and you need to acknowedge how excellent you are doing. This stuff isn’t easy and you are getting it done!
Great job Delane! You are looking great. That is a great thing to do for tracking your progress.
I had two really good weeks at the end of March and the first week of April. I’ve lost 1 lbs in 5 weeks according to weight watchers. I could be worse, I could be going the other way. But if you look at month over month progress, every month but April I’ve lost around 4-5 lbs per month, which is about 1 lbs per week. Which I’m fine with.
Excellent!
YES !
There is nothing better like that feeling 🙂
Cograts, you are on the right path.
