Hmmm...

Aug 19, 2010

Last week, I lost 4.8 pounds.  This week, I lost .2 pounds.  Hmmm...  Five total pounds, but so odd in the disparity.  Nothing about my weight loss ever makes sense to me.  I exercise 6-7 days per week.  I continue to lose inches even without losing weight. 

Does it make sense?  No!  Does it discourage me?  A little bit.    However, one thing I've learned is that weight loss, even with WLS, is not steady and predictable even though my efforts may be.  I've lost 12 inches off my waist, another 12 off my hips, and several inches from various other places.  I can wear 2X shirts and blouses now.  My wonderful pear shape means that my lower half is more of a 3X/4X.  But, the scale isn't congruent with that loss. 

I'm looking forward to my next appointment with my nut and exercise physiologist.  Maybe they'll have answers for me.  The "I'm building muscle" statement may be true, and I hope it is, but I don't want that to be an excuse. 

I've undergrown some of my "new" clothes that I bought at consignment stores.  All of the smallest clothes from my closet are baggy now.  It's nice to shrink and that makes me happy. 

God bless everyone reading my blog.  I appreciate you so much!
