Week 15 Weigh-in

Jan 30, 2015

As promised, I'm reporting the bad and the ugly.  My weight is 276.8 lbs! I have gained 1.6 lbs since last Friday.  I've been told that it's probably because I gained muscle from working out this week (it's been awhile since I've been back in the gym).  That very well might be, but in the absence of evidence to support the muscle theory, I refuse to make excuses for my gain. My scale is supposed to measure body composition in terms of body fat%, but It never changes it's percentages!   If I've lost 42 lbs I would expect body fat % to be changing.  If it's muscle, my metabolism should be better and I should see some loss when I weigh in 2 weeks.

In the meanwhile, I accept what the scale says for what it is and I am going to work my tool with all my might for the next 2 weeks.   I am going to track all my food daily, do 2 days of water aerobics and 2 days of cardio and weights, get 5000+ steps in per day and increase my water intake to at least 90oz (I was told by someone yesterday that I should be drinking half my body weight in water..I will have to work up to that).  I have my meals planned out and will be eating on schedule.  Most importantly I'm going to pray that these efforts will result in some noticeable weight loss in the next 2 weeks, but in case it doesn't, I'm going to take measurements too.  I will report my results in 2 weeks.  Until next time, God bless!
