Weigh-out

OMG!

I made my dietbet. This involved eating almost no carbs yesterday, 1200 calories, drinking all my water. Close this morning, but not there yet. No breakfast, just a cup of tea (tea is a diuretic). Waited until, ahem, nature took its course; took off fitbit and hair clip and extraneous clothing and got husband to hold the phone. And I made the weight! Under by 0.1 kg. Even getting on and off a few times so it wasn't a false reading. I weigh 80.4 kg. So skinny.

Very happy about this. Now I need to not put it all back on, I have another 3% to lose this month. Today is a free day with food, will talk about that tonight. Going to be a tough day emotionally, so it's great I have this positive start.

  2. Good for you for reaching your goal!

    However (I'm not judging you), this is why I'm not a big fan of the dietbet. Part of the goal for us is to learn how to live consistently in a healthy state. When I look at your posts from this first part of your dietbet I can see a clear trend of starting healthy to a slow progression back to your old ways followed by a mad dash to the finish line. Ultimately you reached the first marker but you did so very inconsistently.

    My comment is not meant to make you feel bad and you should be proud that you are heading in the right direction, just please don't lose sight of the overall goal; it's not a number on the scale.

    1. I totally agree, that is my pattern. I'm hoping a six month bet will get me into better habits. We'll see.
