Playing around in MyFitnessPal today, I ran a report for my weight over the past year. I wasn’t surprised by the roller coaster, up and down, spikes and dips, mountain ridge profile of my weight graph. I already knew I’ve yo-yo’d like crazy.
What did stop me in my tracks, though, was realizing I haven’t weighed below 200 pounds for over a year.
Wow. I am only 5’3″, so weighing over 200 pounds is very noticeable on me, to say the least. And I have let that go for over a year? That was sobering. And mortifying. And sad.
I have had steady weight losses for the past month, at least. That’s a start. I need to focus on that. It was discouraging and depressing to see my weight chart today, and now I wish I hadn’t run it.
If I work out today and tomorrow, I will complete my goal of working out every day in March. A friend suggested taking a picture of my calendar covered in stars (I put a star on the calendar for each day that I work out), so I need to remember to take that picture!
