ok, so there's been a weight gain as of yesterday, and from the lowest point this week (167.8) to today, there's a 2.2 pd gain!! I've really focused on the diet this week, and eaten plenty of greens, all cooked meals--none of the frozen processed entrees, and drank plenty of water (3L or so daily). Worked out more than before, and at the end of the week--on the weigh-in day of all days--my body is uncooperative!! Stupid body--doesn't have a mind of its' own--and doesn't want to get with the program!!
I did ALL OF MY MINI CHALLENGE-GOALS (except the one about waking up at 6 am and working out in the morning)
Here's what the new plan is: 1) Continue to cook and eat as last week, with the following modifications, 2) be sure to have a big salad with ALL of my meals, 3) have smaller meals every two hours or so--crackers, fruits, veggies, (don't know what else), 4) workout MORE: the c2k will definitely up the ante, but I also need to add other things to it--daily 1 additional 30 mins. exercise--no matter what (e.g., workout DVDs, walking outdoors, ab crunches, etc.) 5) Make a firm commitment to workout at 6.30 am!!

Don't weigh yourself so much. Hormones can cause you to hold water. Weigh one day a week. If you don't lose this week (or gain a pound or two), if you keep following your plan, you will likely see the loss plus more the next week. I have been on WW since Dec., and some weeks, even though I did not cheat, I lost nothing. But I have now lost 43 lbs. I have stopped worrying about my weight week-to-week and focused on eating/exercising according to the plan. Relax!

Leo has a good point. If you look at your weight a week ago, you've lost 0.6 pounds. If you kept up that rate of loss, you would lose close to 30 pounds a year, which isn't bad at all! I used to weigh every day, and then I got so obsessed, I started weighing twice a day, and then it seemed like every time I passed the bathroom, the scale was calling to me! Now, I weigh in twice a week. Once on Saturdays to post my official weight, and once on Tuesday or Wednesday, to see how I'm doing for the week. It's a lot less stressful than seeing the daily fluctuations! You might want to try it!

Our bodies don't always cooperate with what they should be doing. There is so much going on under the surface that we can't know for sure what will show up on the scale. But you can rest assured that your efforts will be rewarded. My guess is the new exercise has caused a temporary stall with some water retention and that you will see a greater result for next week. You are doing everything right so just continue with your fantastic effort and know that it will all balance out in the long run.

I love your To Do lists! It's such a pro-active way to tackle what you perceive as disappointment (but what the rest of the world thinks is you doing an amazing job.) And your list of steps are exactly what I'm currently obsessed with -- so it makes me excited to see them. I TOTALLY subscribe to eating a large leafy green zero point veggie salad BEFORE every meal. I started doing that and was so tired of chewing (like you said), full, out of time, that I ate less of my calorie-dense protein/carb entree. I am also TOTALLY on board with frequent snacking - I've been eating almonds and walnuts like there is no tomorrow for the last few months because YOAD said I should, even though they were previously taboo due to high fat and calories, but I'm losing/winning because the good fat and satiety signals have worked their magic. I started portioning 1/4 in a baggie or counting out 4 walnuts/8 halves (for 100 cals) or 12 - 15 almonds. And upping exercise as long as you don't overdo it an get overuse injuries (story of my life) or get too tired and run down if you sacrifice sleep. Can you add Get 7-8 hours sleep. Period. To your list? Sleep is SOOOOO IMPORTANT for weight loss physiology, curbing hunger and carb cravings, stress and emotions, ETC.
