Another weigh-in day

Didn't have time to make this post before dinner... so I'll get to it now.

I am definitely down 3.2 pounds. Today's weight 228.8 vs. last Monday's 232.0.

Still mystified as to why the 227+ I hit and held for several days in mid-January went away. My eating, though spotty at times, has really not been bad overall. The plan is to improve compliance and see what happens next. Mind you, I'm not unhappy to be that much closer to goal!

I have noticed a slight downward trend on both my Tanita body fat scale and my Omron body fat monitor. That may have to do with better hydration levels lately, or it may be that my body composition is indeed subtly changing for the better.

Half my trouble I think, is that I am so spotty with compliance to my plan, it becomes hard to judge if my current eating is really working for me or not. Oh, it's working as to my health and well-being, no doubts there, but I need to see if I am losing at this calorie level and not just spinning my wheels up and down the block.

So, publicly stated goal for this week is to hit 90% compliance. I might add that I need that compliance, because we may elect to go out to eat for Valentine's Day and/or my husbands birthday, both of which fall during this week. So I'll need to have a couple 10% meals set aside. 

I will post a screenshot from Joe's Goals at the end of the week.

  1. Good Morning Cynthia!

    I have enjoyed your comments on the EO's Weight Warriors blogs, thank-you.

    I have added this blog to my Google Reader, it looks like you are pretty tech-savvy. I love all the gadgets you are using. The only gadgets I use for my weightloss is a Taylor Digital Scale, WeightWatchers On-The-Go for my Palm m515, and an analog food scale.

    Of course I use a number of gadgets and widgets on my personal blog http://rejectedreality.wordpress.com to track the progress to my goals.

    Its good to find another Pendletonian in the blogosphere. They are as hard to find as a parking spot during Round-Up!

  2. I'm enjoying following the EO Weight Warrior blogs and will probably include a mention of y'all in a post soon. People need to know they are not alone in the quest for health. I'm not a native Pendletonian or even Oregonian, but I'm enjoying living here.

    I've got you in my reader now, only JUST downloaded one a couple days ago. It's all new, but fun!

    I'm not all THAT tech savvy, but I do like computers and have owned one since the old 8088 processors were around. I guess I sort of learn what I need to know, but there's a lot that overwhelms me, LOL!

    I hate to say how many gadgets and widgets I have around, but I like them and use them. More later on those.

    I've applied for directory listing on the ORBlog.com site I found from your blog. If that goes through OK, you won't be the lone listed Pendleton blog anymore!
