Recording Your Body Measurements

Today I want to talk about the value of recording your body measurements. We’ve talked about weighing ourselves in this blog (To Weigh or Not to Weigh) and I think that’s a useful measurement to track. It’s certainly useful to know that your weight jumped five pounds in the past month. I gained some weight on my super-duper exciting summer of travel and now I’m trying to take it off. I went to the beach twice and on a ten-day visit to Italy and had a great time. There always comes that moment when you come home and jump on the scale. Sigh. Putting weight on is so much easier than taking it off. It doesn’t seem fair, but I guess it’s also a lot more fun...

to weigh or not to weigh

To Weigh or Not to Weigh?

After losing weight several years ago, I'm still weighing in everyday. I know that there is some discussion online if it is a good idea to weigh or not to weigh everyday. For me, the choice is to weigh. I was reminded of this when something popped up on my Facebook feed in the memories section. It was about weighing in and BMI. 5 years ago on Facebook - March 2013 - Had a great day the gym yesterday...

Maintaining Weight Loss - Consistency Over Intensity

Maintaining Weight Loss – Consistency Over Intensity

During the winter months, it can be difficult to stay the course for maintaining weight loss. Long dark nights. Cold blustery weather. We are almost six weeks into New Year's Resolutions and I find that I need a reminder about what I promised myself. Maintaining weight loss. Developing muscle strength. Cultivating good eating habits. Already this year I've not been to the gym on a regular basis as much as I intended. Maybe two days a week instead of my usual four or five. Generally I go skiing down the slopes at a nearby resort during the winter months. This year I haven't been outside as much as I've wanted to, partly due to sub freezing weather the early part of January. Then I've also been dealing with...
