Weekly Weigh-In 2006-02-05 February 5, 2006

I’m still making good progress, but I’m finding it hard to reach my target of 1kg (2.2 lbs) of weight loss per week. It’s always the weekends that beat me!

This weekend we spent three days away with friends in a quiet little village down the coast. We had all the usual derailing factors – beer and wine, peanuts, chips, cooked breakfasts, crackers and dips, ice cream, etc – plus I wasn’t able to take a decent stroller to take G for walks with me. We also stayed up late both nights, so I probably wouldn’t have gotten up early to go walking anyway :-) . So that was three days of no exercise this week.

I really need to get my weekends under control. My weight loss graph always kicks up slightly every weekend, slowing my progress. If I could maintain my discipline through the weekend, I’d lose an extra 0.2 – 0.4 kg (0.4 – 0.9 lbs) per week! That’s got to be worth trying for!

That said, I was actually a little surprised that my weekend blowout didn’t derail me more than it did. My daily weight measurement today only jumped 1 kg (2.2 lbs) compared to Friday’s measurement. Given the amount of junk I ate, I think I got off lightly!
