Diet bet is over tomorrow. As of this morning I was 361.8, I needed to be at 362.5 to win. Nervous, but happy I finally got to win one. With that being said, I won't be doing a dietbet next month. I feel like I have an unhealthy obsession with the scale and I was starting to try and starve myself to my goal weight (359).
I was talking with a co-worker who said he didn't get on the scale just stayed focused for a month. I was jealous. I get up every morning and weigh myself 2-3 times to see how low I can get. I think dietbet was great at jump starting my journey again and keeping me focused, but I need to just leave it alone for a bit.
For February my goal is 8 lbs, if did dietbet it would be 14, which would be awesome, but not sure how doable it is, or how scale obsessed I would become.
The other issue is, I might be in a plateau from losing so quickly. 16-17 lbs in a month is a lot, even at my size. I've been sitting around 361 for a few days. It also might not be a plateau I might just be getting on the scale so often the little changes are hard to see.
Yesterday I said eff it and had a mini cheat day (orange juice, apple juice and jelly on my toast). Wednesday is usually when I burn out on eating eggs. I was a little scared I would gain, but I need to be able to eat sustainably (made that word up) and suffering eggs everyday forever ain't the way. To balance the cheat I decided I was going to workout. I couldn't get out of bed early enough so I promised myself I would do it at night.
I have never managed to work out at night at home. EVER .
Ever.
I workout out home and I owe it all to fitness glo (FG). I think the reason I was able to get up the motivation to do it was, it was at my fitness level. I did a workout (totaly body tonig, level 2) . At first I thought it wasn't hard enough, but I felt lit later on and the next day. I was able to do 90% of the moves. I still need to modify plans, mountain climbers, and pushups)
I queued up the tabata and by the half way mark I was saying very mean things to the instructor, but then the time rushed by and it was over. I was pretty happy I had done it. I actually have another workout for tonight. I don't have the dread I did with other instructors (beach body, the firm, daily burn). I also love that the instructors look like real people who are fit. Level 2 is level 2 not level 1 with weights or level 3 and just slower. I was hating tabata, but I will probably do that one again....maybe.
