A post for myself, so I weigh myself too much but generally, Monday morning is my ‘proper’ weigh in for the week.

I’ve stayed around the same weight for about 3 weeks now and it’s been hard. It’s gotten me really down some days. For example- this week I really pushed myself- I haven’t drunk any alcohol in 9 days. I’ve been pushing myself really hard some days and having rest days to keep my recovery up for my knees and mix up my routine. I’m eating lots of green veg and lean proteins, drinking tons of green tea and lemon and water.

And so today with the scale on the same number it’s been for the past 3 Mondays I’d like to talk about none-scale achievements from this week.

I’m going to have to get a tape and start measuring myself so that I can keep on track as my clothes are definitely looser this week. Tshirts I used to avoid wearing because they were tight or showed off my stomach I can now wear. My leggings I bought around March are now loose at the top! They are shape fitting ones that are supposed to suck your stomach in and give you a better figure and now there are a little loose! 

This week I noticed my high wasted jeans keep falling down and bunching- I’m at the annoying weight where I’ll soon need to get some smaller ones but I’d rather lose a little more weight before spending all that money.

In 5 weeks of wearing my fitbit I have walked/ran 250 miles :) 

I can only hope that I’ve been losing fat and gaining muscle these past few weeks, I’m hoping that’s the reason for the lack of loss on the scale.

It’s hard when you aren’t happy with where you are on your weight loss journey... I have days where I panic and feel worse about myself now than I did when I was a stone heavier at the beginning of the year...

My self-worth has been a huge reflection on my weight loss lately... I’m trying hard to not get obsessed, I know how easy relapses are with eating disorders, I found myself last week looking at old pictures of myself. Back when I was 8 stone.

I know I wasn’t healthy then. But gosh it’s hard.

Be patient with yourself. Self-growth is tender; it’s holy ground. There’s no greater investment.
