So, I jumped on the scale last night. Ugh. Why do I do such things to myself?
One of my roomies and I were talking about weight and diet and all that jazz last night. She was sayin her normal weight is usually around 128lbs. *le sigh* Then I had the horrifying realization that I am damn near 100lbs more than her. Good lord.
How did this happen? How have I gained 65lbs over the past 11 years?
Now, in fairness I just got on the scale again. I wanted to see if there was a difference between last night's number and the number I got first thing in the morning. And there was a difference. A 5lb difference! The last time I weighed myself was when I was on vacation. I jumped on the scale one morning before breakfast - that number was horrifying. Suffice it to say I'm down from that number. So I am losing, which is a good thing. I just wish it would go a little faster. But I'm at about an 8lb loss overall. Mind you it has taken me 3 months to lose that 8lbs. Now if I could just get rid of about 18lbs I'll be out of the 200s. You have no idea how happy it will make me to see the 100s again. Then from there about another 30lbs to get back down to a reasonable weight.
While I don't like the number on the scale right now at least the number is changing in the right direction. If I could just figure out how to stick with it, I'd be all set.
You can do it!!
ReplyDeleteSo you wouldn't tell me your number but now you're telling the whole world! pfft I feel unspecial :P
It's great that it's going in the right direction!
ReplyDeleteAnd congrats on the 8 pounds! It may seem small but it's still an accomplishment.
