Sometimes the scale just doesn't budge. No matter how much you work out and how well you eat, sometimes the number on the scale just doesn't go down. I kept this in mind during today's weigh in. I knew before the weigh in that I had been bloated for a few days, so I wasn't expecting to lose any weight. And sure enough... I only lost .2lbs. I'm not discouraged because my clothes are starting to feel looser, so I know that I am losing weight. I've been through this before, once a month my weight goes up about 2lbs due to water weight. In a few days when I lose the water weight, I'll post an update about on the percent of weight I've lost since the beginning of the competition.
No-one on my team lost a great amount of weight this week. The first week we lost 12.10% of our weight. This week we only lost 2.5% of our weight. I'm hoping that my team stays positive and realizes that sometimes it takes a few days or weeks before your hard work shows up on the scale.
We haven't received the results from all the other teams yet. I have a feeling that most teams didn't lose as much as they had the first week. I'll let you know as soon as I find out.
Daily Journal:
I ate 1300 calories. At the gym, I burned 670 calories in an hour and six minutes on the elliptical machine. Today was my upper body workout, and I spent about 20 minutes lifting weights. Later at home, I played Dance Central and burned another 100 calories.
