I graphed out my weight loss and applied a number of different rolling averages. You can see them all put together in the final graph (although it's very hard to read which is why I split them up).
Some things I learned from this:
-
When I fall off the wagon, it seems like it's usually for a length of 2-3 months.
-
When I fall off the wagon, it's not as bad as my good times are good.
-
I have difficulties in winter and tend to do very well in fall.
-
It's important to look at the weight loss numbers from a wider context. I may feel like a failure sometimes, but my 365 day rolling average has never gone up!
-
I really have come a long way. I'm 75% of the way towards my goal, and I've never felt better.
If I had to choose one rolling average to look at, I would choose the 30 day rolling average. It can both account for swings but also keep a broader picture in mind. The prettiest graph is definitely the 60 day rolling average one though.
If anyone else has a long history of weight measurements lying around somewhere, I really encourage trying this out. It can let you know where you're messing up and give you a broader look at how far you've come.
