Good and bad news...

By some miracle I weighed 227.5 this morning!! I couldn't believe it!! I was so happy to see that number. I even saw a glimpse of 227 once but it settled at 227.5. 
I'm so surprised. The scale seemed to be stuck at 231.5 and I even decided to put it away for a while. Maybe deciding not to stress out over it helped? I dunno but I'll take it!! 
I just knew I would show a loss on the ww scale. Unfortunately I wasn't able to go.
The car has been acting funny lately and my dad came by and took a look at it yesterday and it seems to be transmission related. Not good at all. I tell you if it's not one thing, it's another. Just when I thought I was getting ahead a bit, here's something to push me back some more. Ugh...I'm going to try and remain positive though. It could be worse. At least we do have another car. It hasn't been driven in FOREVER though and of course this car has no ac. Oh my goodness last night I was stressed out about this. I was ready to do some serious stress eating. I wanted something sweet so bad but I didn't have anything in the house. I thought that was kinda funny. So I had my ww smoothie and called it a night. My dad offered to take it to try and get a valid inspection sticker on it so I can drive that. I sure hope it passes. He hasn't gotten back yet so I have no way to get to my meeting. Oh well. Man I so wanted to get to my meeting today! At least I know I lost something! Last Saturday I weighed 229 and today I weigh 227.5 so I'll count it as a 1.5 pound loss for the week!!
On to next week. I think not stressing over it helped me this week. I just followed the program and I decided no matter what the scale said I was going to be happy because I know I'm making progress. I still would like to know what the ww scale would have said though. Oh well onward I go!!!
I sure hope it doesn't cost too much to fix the car.

Congrats!!!! I think the biggest fear for many of us is that damn scale! I'm tormented by it on a daily basis! I just want to stand on it a hundred times a day to see if I've lost, but I think you wisdom that putting the scale away for a while is the best thing! As long as e know we're eating right, then the scale will show in the end! Boy did it show for you this week!!! The car thing totally sucks!!! Try not to worry to much about it so you can keep losing that weight though! I've read many studies on stress and weight loss and the comparison to oil and water. Keep up the good work!

227. Girl just keep doing the right thing and everything else will fall into place. You are strong enough to handle anything that comes your way. |
