Don't let the scale get you down.



This isn't the cleanest looking photo but I'm short on time and don't feel like taking a crash course on blogspot.com. This graph came from my Excel file which I am using to keep track of my weight loss data.

I'm using this graph to photographically show the importance of measuring during a weight loss journey.

I know I stated in my last blog how happy I was to have lost inches despite weight gain, but I just wanted to reiterate by showing this graph. The lower bar represents my total inches. Notice how it has been decreasing steadily. My weight is represented by the top bar. It had been decreasing at a less-steady rate than total inches, but the sharp increase would have been discouraging had I not also been measuring. See it now? It's amazing. I love graphs.

This coming Saturday marks the end of week 4, and I will be posting a newer version of my front view photo, as well as any other comparison shots that I find noteworthy. I cannot wait to update the frontal shot though because I assure you, I am not nearly as rolly as I was back then. It's funny to look back. How the hell did I let myself get that bumpy?!

Thanks for reading! Tonight I'm going to the gym for a power interval workout on the bike and some muscle pumpin'. Love it.

Cheers!
