I know I can't lose on the scale every day; it's happened the last three because I have just started dieting again. I want to keep trends and overall loss in mind. I know from past weight losses (and gains) that many days the scale stayed steady for 3-4 days before recording a change. I want to focus on the habits of wellness (decent, healthy foods in reasonable amounts, and daily activity) rather than daily numbers on the scale. I also want to keep track daily because it helps to keep me accountable and honest with myself.
I'm on my way out the door for a Sunday walk - 6 miles today.
Total steps today = 19,009 No sodas! No refined sugars! Took my vitamins! Only unplanned snacks were cherries and part of DD's orange. Holiday weekend continues - but really well!
