Well, after one HELL of a week (boyfriend slept with another woman, electricty threatened. To be turned off, etc)...I finally weighed in this morning.
223 lbs!
There's a lot to be said for feeling like you want to puke all day long from stress and sorrow. Ya lose weight.
A fine week preceeding my birthday today....(sigh)
Love you girls!!
I was at 222 yesterday. I think because of lower activity level courtesy of chest congestion. Back to exercising and I think heading the right way this week.
Oh no, Julie. :( That's not the way you want the scale to go down for sure. Hugs to you!!! So sorry about your boyfriend. I hope your birthday was good anyhow and you surrounded yourself with friends who truly love you!Quote:

Oh my heaven! You know, you don't want to win the 'worst week EVER' award, right? :) Trust me. I won it in Dec when my nephew was killed. Not an award I'm looking to win again, nor do I want to see any of you win it either!Quote:

(Though sadly I do get the whole - bonus that I'm feeling so lousy I can't even think about eating. Just not a way I want any of us to lose any weight!)
That's the perfect attitude!! You control your own destiny. Can't control what others do, but you can control your attitude and how you deal with things.Quote:

I hope everything goes better this week!Quote:

I'll weigh in today since I'll be out of town for the next two Fridays.
166.2 :mad:
I don't know how in the world I gained 2.5 lbs. I want to give up. I just can't take this trying and then being disappointed by the scale. It ruins my whole day. I need to not let the scale determine my mood and self-worth, but I need to lose weight. Ugh...
I'm so tired of being fit but fat. :( Maybe this is who I am and I need to make peace with it...
Since last week, I lost a pound, then gained 2. Between yesterday morning and this morning, I lost 1.5 pounds. Small amounts like that could be due to water gain/loss as much as anything else.Quote:

I just feel like the fat one of my peers, and I am in comparison. I need to stay away from cameras and mirrors because I feel beautiful until I see myself- and then the self-loathing begins... it's all in my head. I wish I could fix it.Quote:

Unless someone chops off both my feet in the night I think I will have gained at least 2 pounds come tomorrow morning :(
