So getting sick really messed me up for a while, slowed me down in my work out routine because it was threatening to move to my lungs, so I didn’t want to work up a sweat. In the mean time, I’ve restarted Weight Watchers. I’m debating if I want to change my weight to their numbers from now on, or keep using my WiiFit as my scale. Neither are really as accurate as I’d like to be because of a few reason which I will now, in typical blogger style, expound upon…
The Wii asks you to guess how much your clothes weigh… I kinda don’t have a clue how much my clothes weigh, it seems very generalized, and of course I could just weigh myself naked on the Wii, but its set up right next to my slider out to the balcony. Sure I have the binds drawn, but I’m paranoid… plus there is something inherently odd to me about the concept of playing the Wii Naked… there is probably some internet fetish on it though… I’m going to stop contemplating that now, as it weirds me out, feel free to continue on your own if you so wish.
In contrast, at WW I’m usually wearing heavy jeans and I’ve had breakfast and hopefully drank at 32 oz of water. Meaning, just living has added some weight, and the number at WW is always higher than the number on the Wii, lol… vanity, I know… so I dunno, anyone have thoughts or opinions?
Anyway, onwards to the measurements for this week… like I said, getting sick slowed me down.
Weight: 199lbs/90.5kg (WOO, 100 club!)
BMI: 34.18
Arm: 15″
Bust: 44″
Waist: 37.6″
Hips: 49.5″
Thigh: 28.5″
So, in general, a small loss everywhere, which is a pretty good victory for taking a whole week do to nothing but laying in bed sneezing. The goal for this week is to really track everything I eat, and keep tabs on my WW points. I really feel like not tracking last time I went to WW is why I didn’t lose any weight. This time, I’m gonna do it right.
go with the weight watchers scale and don’t let the clothes you have on be a factor, we where clothes everyday.
Just don’t go in with like huge ass hiking boots and a 10lb belt.
WW is as the best scale to use. keep up the good work!
I just weight myself naked, and don’t go to the WW meetings, just the online.
That said, you can just weigh your clothes. Just grab whatever you normally wear and plop it on the scale so you know what it weighs. A bottle of water, too. Food is pretty much negligible, since it’s not like you’re eating 3 lbs of food.
Sarah, just keep with your Wii. You’ll always have that. Get UNparanoid and weigh in the morning with lighter clothese and before you drink gallons of water. That IS accurate. The jeans and all that water at WW is disheartening and not accurate to your true weight. Just my two cents.
