4.3 kg lost... is it?

by DeeWidiastuti on 21 Oct 2013, 06:47

After two weeks of weight fluctuations and/or plateau, this morning I finally saw the scale go down again, which brought me to 4.3 kg lost. Is it possible that I've finally broken the plateau? :?:

Anyway, I've entered my weight log to Libra App, and this is how it looks for the last 2 weeks:

That highest peak on Oct 14 was what I talked about in previous post. The next peak (but lower) was from Oct 17. I had been increasing the intensity of my workout between those dates, which resulted in really sore muscles all week long, so I think water retention from sore muscle is a factor here.

I've been looking back on my eating, and I realised that I've had very salty snacks.. those cocktail peanuts mix are really the killer.. and high cal too! I really need to control my snacking.

Anyway, from Oct 17 to today, it's slowly going down again and it's making me more hopeful. I ended up doing 16:8 through the weekend as well. I tried to eat more veggies and drink 2 liters of water a day. The weekend exercise break has recovered my muscles. So I think the combination of all that has worked out to deliver today's weigh in.

I'm feeling much more positive today compared to last week. Today is also my 6:1 day, so I do hope it well help me to keep the weight loss trend downward.

Here's to a better week! :clover:
