Doing WW for Weight Loss

I decided to do WW as I work on losing the last of my weight.  2023 was a rough year but thankfully I was able to maintain my weight loss within the 6 pounds maintenance allowance.  I feel that I have a space of time now that is great for working to lose that last 15-20 pounds!

I started 2 weeks ago with WW tracking and I'm also tracking with the Carbon app just to make sure I'm eating enough food.

Here was my 1st week data of points vs. calories:

Thur. - 26 points; 1555 calories
Fri. - 23 points; 1526 calories
Sat. - 24 points; 1287 calories
Sun. - 26 points; 1431 calories
Mon. - 40 points; 1719 calories
Tues. - 37 points; 1577 calories
Wed. - 38 points; 1745 calories

I actually got sick the beginning of the 2nd week because I gave up trying to track and just ate what I wanted really.  So, I don't have data for my 2nd week but I still managed to lose both weeks:


Since I'm not necessarily reaching the Carbon Diet Coach ranges for calories and protein, I just mark non-compliant each week.  I'm merely using it right now as a guide, not the master and it helps a lot to see weekly averages.  I will return to using the Carbon app exclusively when I'm back to maintaining.

I also did my measurements and here are my 2-week shrinkage locations:

Under Bust -1/4 inch
Waist -3/4 inch
High Hip -1/2 inch
Low Hip -1/2 inch
Thigh - 1/4 inch
Calf -1/2 inch

Down -2 3/4 inches and 3 pounds for March so far!
