Hi guys
I've been contemplating recently how best I should keep track of weight loss. I weigh often but find that I have long stalls with no loss, even though I know I'm eating at a 500-1000 calorie deficit every day. I was wondering whether, rather than taking pride in what the scales say, I can cut down on weighing myself and try to track my weight loss success in terms of estimated calories burned - which is what matters, right? I log everything on MFP and have a Fitbit, so I should have a decent idea of my deficit each day, and I feel like this is the one thing I have control of and should be able to track - so rather than celebrating 3lbs lost, I'll simply celebrate 10K calories burned instead, or similar milestones.
Does anyone else try to think this way? And have any ideas of charting progress/visualising the data in a way that provides the same perspective into progress that weight loss charts do? I was thinking of something like putting coins in a jar for every 1000 calories burned, or similar.
