Bodybugg update
Well, I’ve finished my second full week wearing this little gem.
Last week I figured I’d lose about 1.5 pounds so when I lost only .2 I was pretty upset. I couldn’t figure it out.
On Thursday, I had my coaching session with a Bodybugg coach. She walked me through the website and showed me some things I didn’t know about even with all my playing around on the site. She also said to give things another week and see what we might need to change.
Well, I started weighing my food after talking to her because, as she said, I might have been underestimating how big a portion I’m eating.
Well, what I found explains EVERYTHING – all the problems I’ve been having getting to my goal, all the weeks I should have been down and wasn’t, EVERYTHING!
Popcorn has more calories than I ever could have imagined.
I LOVE popcorn and clearly was underestimating how much of it I eat. I looked one night at how many calories I had left and thought I would figure out how much popcorn I could have. Turned out to be about two handfuls!
Not even a bowl full.
Seeing this, I realized that at least twice a week, I was eating half a big bowl (shared with Beloved), and I was assuming it was only a few cups and totally messing up the points (on WW) or calories.
This week I weighed everything (well, after Thursday’s coaching session).
I lost THREE pounds this week!!! Three pounds!!!
And that was being sick yesterday and not really being able to exercise much. We went to Pizza Hut on Friday and I went out with my writers’ group on Saturday! And I lost 3 pounds!
I love this little thing!!!
