08/2019 loss: 11.2 (TOTAL -11.2)
09/2019 loss: 9.1 (TOTAL -20.3)
10/2019 loss: 6.8 (TOTAL -27.1)
Monday, 11/4/19 -1.6 (TOTAL -28.7)
I noticed my monthly losses have gone down each month, but that's okay. I have not been 'perfect' and a 6.8 pound loss in one month is still really good. According to WW, the average loss is 1-2 pounds per week. A 6.8 loss in one month is 1.7 pounds per week. So I'm still right on track!
Here are the treats I enjoyed this week and still had a weight loss:
1 hard seltzer
peanut butter crackers
biscuits and gravy
1 piece of pizza
1 small blueberry muffin
1/2 of a Kit Kat bar
And here are some non-food related wins/random thoughts:
*3 pairs of jeans that no longer fit (too big!)
*I put on my 'winter' jacket (which is just a light jacket) yesterday morning and after I buttoned it up, I pulled it away from my mid-section...I had a lot of room. I may need to get another jacket, but not this year. I rarely wear a jacket here at all, so it can wait until next season. Plus, the jacket has a belt, so I can cinch it up if necessary.
*I did a 3+ mile hike yesterday by myself. It was a moderately easy hike, but at one point I thought about turning around. I saw a couple ahead of me hiking on a steep incline (think...staircase) and I paused because I wasn't sure if i had the motivation to do that and I couldn't see where the incline ended. But I wanted to finish, so I did it. And it wasn't bad at all.
*I had to keep hiking up the leggings I wore on the hike.
*I said 'no' to a LOT of treats this week. Peanut Butter Pie, lots of chocolate, and pastries at break yesterday.
*I drank a lot of coffee this week. I found some almond milk caramel flavored creamer that is delicious.
*Trader Joe's mandarin chicken with cauliflower stir fry mix makes a great dinner. It's kind of pointy (10), but it's a lot of food. SO GOOD.
And here are goals for November:
*More Barre!
*At least 2 more hikes
*More detailed tracking. I track every single meal, but sometimes I get REALLY lazy and will do a 'Quick Add' in the WW app, and just plug in 'Breakfast' 6 points and 'Lunch', 8 points, etc. I want to be more detailed so I can see how many vegetables I'm not eating ha ha.
*More water. I haven't been hitting my gallon per day lately. Usually I get around 75 - 80 ounces, but I'm going to strive for 128 oz consistently this month.
