Day 99. Water Retention & Results Day 14.

Woowho another week of weight loss, down .5 kg (Which brings me to 86 kg | 13.6 Stones | 189.6 lbs in weight), some would say am on a roll but without the bun :o) bum bum….I know, I know bad pun intended.

Actually I wanted to talk about water retention today. Mid week I actually lost a whole kilogram, it was rather bizarre. I weighed myself Sunday morning and found myself to be 85 kg, I then went to volleyball practice and since then I found my weight up to 86 kg for the rest of the week, but this is where something weird happened.

After today’s body measurements I could hardly believe my eyes. In fact it prompted me to re-measure myself several times, just to make sure…. and to my astonishment I found major losses in inches around my waist, hip and thighs. Tallying up my weight loss being only 0.5kg loss in comparison to last week results, you would think, how can I lose so many inches in these areas? So I’ve kind of come to the conclusion it has to do with water retention this week not truly reflecting my real weight.

I’ve lost .75 inches in my Hip area, 1 inch in my thigh area and 1.5 inches in my waist, incredible don’t you think?!?! I guess not, after all I am doing the low carb lifestyle ;o) hehehe!

That’s all I really wanted to report for today. I hope you all are equally having the same success.

Ps. I also had a buzzcut, arrrrr much better ;o)



Pss. Plus I had my first McDonalds Toffee & Oreo Mc Flurry.. oh my gosh.. tastes so good!

hey baldy ;-)
it may also be muscle gain too! :-) when you have less body fat to lose the numbers on the scale slow down.. that's normal and besides, muscle is much more dense than fat, so gaining a little bit of muscle makes the scale stay the same too! you're doing fantasic

Hey Goldilocks :o) Doesn't quite have the same effect back... lol! True it could be some muscle gain but half a kilo is a lot, but I like the theory ;o) & Thanks for the encouragement, I hope your losses are going well.
