Weight-loss Check in: Week 1

Weight loss this week: 4 lbs! (4 lbs total, 16 to go!)

Healthy eating highlights: I did great with eating healthy this week. I made some dinners which I *hate* doing, but it was okay because it gave me lots of leftovers for other meals! 

Exercise highlights: Tuesday's Zumba class was canceled, which I found out via a flimsy piece of paper taped to the locked gym door so since I was already in workout clothes I decided to go for a long walk then came home and did some strength training. Yay me. 

Goals for upcoming week:
  • 3 Zumba classes + at least 2 days strength training
  • Keep up the healthy eating and cooking dinners!

Thoughts:I'm proud of myself for getting back into the swing of healthy eating so quickly and already making progress. I know that 4 lbs in a week is a fluke and is likely water weight but it's good motivation anyway. I am looking forward to being back in the 100's when I step on the scale next week!

  4. Congrats on the weight loss! It's definitely encouraging to see any weight come off even if it's just water weight to start with. It's definitely hard to cook and eat healthy, but in the end it makes a huge difference.

  7. Woot woot! That's amazing progress! I'm so impressed with/jealous of people who do Zumba classes because it looks like so much fun, but I'm too uncoordinated.
