My Weight Loss Regimen

Sooooo, here it is it's been a week since I've been trying to get into shape, not just for the summer but, for my overall being. Some things I've been doing to lose weight were eating certain foods with a certain amount of calories, exercising to something I enjoy which is house music, and setting a curfew for my eating time ( I guess you could say that). So far I've lost 6 pounds and I plan on keeping it off for good but, of course things doesnt always go my way but I pray this does.

I also did some research on when it is best  to weight myself as in what time of the day and how often should I do it. According to some sources, they recommend once a week and according to some sources, they say weight yourself once a month. Before doing research, I was weighing myself everyday because I just wanted to see results instantly but it didnt work like that. See, what I failed to realize was that throughout the day my body weight fluctuates because I'm constantly eating and my body is constantly processing. After doing research I found out the best time to weight myself was in the morning time after I relieve myself, which does in fact makes sense because this is when your body is the lightest. Overnight your kidneys are flushing and filtering out fluids and wastes while you are resting and your other organs are doing their parts as well. It's easier because when your sleeping your body is fasting (peep the word breakfast, break-fast get it, youre breaking the fast from last night) there arent any foods or fluids entering the system.
 
This here is one of the healthiest dishes I created at my job  for
myself to eat....Romaine Salad with shrimp and a tease of
Macaroni and Cheese :)
 It all makes sense when I wake and have the urge to use the bathroom and empty out my system. So I weigh myself and the results are very much different.........satisfying to see I'd say.
