Despite feeling like walking death I dragged my pathetic self to the gym tonight. I did so mostly so that I could weight myself. I anticiapated it would be a rather brutal weigh in as I hadn't been to the gym since saturday (again, I've been sick) but by some magic I managed to lose 2.6lbs this week. (My graph looks a little weird and skewed since I changed my weigh in day, but you get the idea...) Frankly I think that is more due to my having no appetite due to my fever and sickness and maybe not eating enough. I had a few points left over for the past couple of days (I know I know, bad girl) but I just haven't be well or even wanting to think about eating. I certainly haven't been hungry or feeling deprived. I really feel like I've had the stuffing taken out of me from all of this, seriously. Anyway, that is why I probably lost so much despite no gym time, but if I had felt up to going to the gym I probably would have also felt inclined to eat more.... Anyway, I have recognised the problem and made an effort to eat more (ie. all my daily points) and have done just that today. Of course now I feel over full and kind of gross but there ya go.
BUT this week's loss has earned me my 5% milestone! Fairly exciting. I know it really isn't all that much and that there is a whole lot left facing me to lose, but 5% feels good. It also brings me over the 15 lbs lost mark as well, which is pretty encouraging as well. Weight Watchers clearly works for me. I am such a structure driven person, and having a clear and set number of points to eat each day really plays into that perfectly. So basically I am feeling encouraged. It'll be nice to say goodbye to the 290's and it is possible that could be next week. :)
