It's been a bad week for me. I gained weight on my diet and it's the worst feeling in the world. Now I'm taking Laurie comment into consideration, and trying to decide what day to weigh in. Monday might not be the best time to weigh-in because I’m most likely go off plan on the weekend. Weighing myself on Wednesday or Friday may gave me time to correct my eating if I'd slightly gone over at the weekend. However weigh-in on Monday morning might motivate me to eat and exercise better on the weekend knowing a weigh-in was in the near future.
What do you say, what is the best day to weigh in?
Though the number on the scale this week drive me mad, I still have a better reason to celebrate. If you read my previous post, you'll know that I'm kind of "addicted" to fiber supplement. Fiber supplements has a number of health benefits, including normalize bowel functions but I use it to 'undo' a splurge.
I certainly feel discourage after realize that I have eaten more than I planned on fun outing last weekend. I don't want to deny that it's really tempting to take another shot of fiber supplement. But I want to be less dependent on this laxative to lose weight. I haven't bought fiber supplement beginning this April, and I didn't either buy one when I tempted so this week. I simply go back to healthy eating. Victory!!!
I hope you guys are having a great week! This post is a link up to KTJ Weighing In.
Victory on not leaning on that fiber supplement this month. Way to go!! It will be come a habit and not a good one to rely on. Try playing with your weigh-in days and see what works for you. I have a tendancy to weigh daily, but Saturday is my write it down day. I also do my measurements then. You will find that perfect day that will work.

Thanks for the encouragement, Laurie. I will choose other day than Monday to weigh in. Monday sucks. It's the day everybody hates to have to put up with :)
DeleteKeep going! It's soooo difficult to lose weight. When I was trying to lose weight, I weighed in on Fridays. I'm not sure why I chose that day. I don't think I really had any reasoning. Then I fell off the wagon and gained everything back. I'm tired of it and ready to start losing again.
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking about going to weigh myself on Friday, too. I lost about 6kg last year and shortly before New Year I gained it all back. I feel worse about myself, have to start from scratch again. I'm so grateful with all the support I can get from a friend like you :)
DeleteGood job getting off the fiber supplements! I weigh in on Monday's because it helps me stay accountable for my weekends. But I know what you mean about the fun weekends. I have those too sometimes! It's a struggle. Keep your chin up! You will get there!
ReplyDeleteHow sweet. Reading positive comments like yours is so encouraging. Thanks.
DeleteI think it is great that you have been working to get off fiber supplements! A great NSV for sure! Thanks so much for linking up and sharing!
ReplyDeleteThanks also for hosting the linking up, Katie. Reporting for NSV is really helpful for me to track my goals.
DeleteI usually like to weigh in on Sundays, because its riiiight before the start of a new week! But that's just what works best for me and my mindset! I found you through KTJ Non scale victories, one of your happy new followers!

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, and for the follows.
DeleteI chose Monday's...I tend to come off the rails on the weekend and knowing I have to go and weigh on Monday holds me on plan...
ReplyDeleteGood Luck! Don't beat yourself up too much!
Monday morning weigh-in is maybe perfect for people like me who feel a need that as an anchor over the weekend. But I fear that the scale might derail me after a spoiled weekend.
