Eat 4 Today – The Commitment. Keep your eye on your weight to keep your weight in place.
I’m not eating between meals and I’m not going to take seconds. Just Today. And I’m going to try this for a year to see what happens.
I’m seriously considering adding “I’m going to weigh myself today,” to the start of my chant. Because a daily weigh-in is that important to maintaining a stable weight and helps keep us focused when we are reducing. Don’t do it with the idea that you will see dramatic weight losses — that’s not the purpose of this weigh-in at all. The purpose of this weigh-in is to spot trends.
If your weight is up a pound or two one day, that’s normal and fine (even if you’re on a reducing diet) but if your weight stays there for several days and rises from there — that’s what you’re watching for. That’s a sign that it’s time to measure your portions and focus on The Commitment more closely.
For those of us with weight problems, particularly those of us with a history of obesity, our weight if unchecked, will always drift up.
This is why I think obesity has to be considered controllable, not curable.
I am reluctant to tinker with a winning formula. But, the fact is I actually have been weighing myself through this entire process. So, I haven’t put it into the official chant just yet, but I’m seriously considering it.
What do you think? How does this sound? I’m weighing myself and I’m not eating between meals and I’m not going to take seconds. Just Today. And I’ll do this for a year to see what happens.
I just don’t know.
