The 21st night (October 18th) I lost 1.4 lbs.
If you remember I was supposed to GAIN weight by this week because I was too far “under” my maintenance weight. So, no tracking this week and I went out to eat 5 times….
Well, yesterday I only GAINED .8 lbs. It wasn’t enough….so I put my jacket back on (b/c usually I take it off when I weigh) and I had GAINED 1.4 lbs.
So, I’m still not up to my “maintenance weight” but I’m getting there. So, between now and next Tuesday I need to gain .4 to get to my maintenance “goal weight.”
So, AGAIN….pack on the pounds!!!
There are a couple of things that I don’t really like about Weight Watchers:
1.) You can wear whatever you want….and lose/gain weight by your clothes. So, for example, I had to GAIN weight this week. I had to wear my jacket in order to get close to the right weight. (Therefore, it really messes with you and what you ACTUALLY weigh…it’s based more on your clothes). Brenda said next week I could just bring a bag of rocks with me and hold those if I needed to get up to my GOAL weight (seems kind of messed up if you ask me).
2.) Also, once you hit maintenance (or your goal weight) and maintain it for 6 weeks you don’t have to pay anymore. But, you cannot go above or below by 2 pounds….or you have to pay. I don’t really understand why I would have to pay if I lost weight….if I want to lose weight, I should be able to do that without penalty. But, having to pay to lose weight just doesn’t seem right. But, I guess I’ll stick with it and see what happens–
