Alright, so here's my first September weight:
weight: 228.6fat percentage: 52.9
hydration: 32.3
muscle: 23.1
bone: 10.5
cal: 2403
This is the weight I was using for my August check-in. It's a little higher than it was before my period, which honestly doesn't surprise me - I've been eating more junk food, and eating out more lately. This is also the month with the year anniversary after having lost someone very close to me; it's already shaping up to be a difficult month, so I need to be kind to myself right now. That's why I'm not going to set a new goal for September. Instead I'm going to just try to maintain what I've started to build (yoga twice a week, and walking once a week) to stay healthy.
I debated about setting rewards for maintaining these habits; is a reward needed for the yoga twice a week habit now that I'm in my third month of doing that? Or is this long enough that I should be okay without the reward? I ended up deciding that I might as well, so I have something to look forward to (especially during this month of grief). I've also heard that you need a few months for a habit to stick, so maybe I'll try going three months with rewards, then try stopping and see what happens? I'm hoping that in October I won't need a reward for continuing to do yoga twice a week.
I know I mentioned possibly reworking the weight goals this month, but with everything else going on at the moment, I'm going to put that on pause for now. If I'm able to, I'll reassess in October; otherwise I'll ride it out until the new year and see how things go.
