jimmie65's Journal, 11 February 2012

I give up trying to figure out this weight loss thing. I was stuck on a plateau and couldn't get off it. And I did not expect to lose weight yesterday; not only was it a low-exercise day (crunches and pushups only, no cardio) but my son got engaged so we took them out for a nice dinner. I didn't eat badly (mixed grill) but did have bread and potatoes, and a couple of beers.
And yet I dropped 1.4 lbs.
251.8 lb Lost so far: 18.2 lb.    Still to go: 51.8 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.

I'm the same way. I think when you exercise alot your body retains more water. Then after a few days BAM! you drop a few pounds. It's all good Jimmie!

I know there is a lot of science behind weight loss...but when it actually comes down to when it shows up...it's anybody's guess! You have been rewarded, just a bit later than expected...well done!
