Another week, another graph. Nothing huge to report this week. I've started experimenting with different Tae Bo workouts through netflix to change things up a bit and keep things interesting, but I haven't found one I really liked yet.
Another thing to note is the fact that, finally, a large spike down was recorded on the graph. So it does exist! I'm hovering around 265ish now which is fine by me because it's better than hovering around 275ish.
My total is somewhere between 15 and 20 pounds depending on where I measure my starting point. Last time I did this, I kept all my various sizes of pants and now I've found that I can step down a size and it works out. Wooo. I love seeing actual benefits.

It's that time again for the weekly weight loss update. This week was a pretty big one for me mentally as it was the first week where I dropped down below 270 pounds in my daily weigh ins. Historically, my weight has always sat around 270-275, only dipping above that number (quite a bit above actually) recently. So any time I can get down below that I'm a pretty happy camper. February 1st was my birthday and I ate a bit more than I would normally and didn't exercise, explaining why I jumped back up. Next week will show that I jumped back in the opposite direction quite drastically.
I hate it when that happens on a boundary in the chart because you can't see it as well. But oh well. Since this has also concluded the month of January, I'm going to include the full chart for the month, starting on the 14th since that's when I started keeping track.

This week, I was honestly surprised at my chart due to a couple factors. First of all, I ate out quite a bit this week due to parents asking me to go out, friends coming over and me not having enough time to make anything before class. I also cut back on my exercise a little more than I would have liked because my wrist has been killing me over the course of the week.
So I'm a little shocked that I was still going generally downward. I think that large downward spike towards the beginning of the week was a fluke and the no-change between friday and saturday was a result of my non-exercisingness.

Well, week 1 of really keeping track that is. I found this neat website physicsdiet.com that you can use to keep track of your daily weigh ins and it creates a little graph for you with a rolling average line to help take the daily fluctuations out of the process. So here's my chart for last week:
The blue line is my average weight after the site does it's math-y stuff. The points below the line are my daily totals. It's shaded green if I'm below average and if I have an above average day, it'll show as red. The goal is to keep the line green. I find it helps a lot to be able to see it graphically like this. Kinda like keeping score in a game. I also really like how it can show you a big picture without driving yourself crazy over natural weight fluctuations.
