Today I felt like a kid at Christmas! I woke up at 6:30 a.m. and sprung out of bed ready to weigh myself as that it has been a week since my last weigh! I get on the scale 5 pounds, 5 pounds, I am telling myself. I worked so hard this week. 4 times working out! My butt is sill sore from all the walking and my arms are kinda like noodles from lifting weights. I have had so much water I could float down to the coast! So I know the results are going to payoff right!
So as my palms are sweaty and my heart is racing I get on the scale. The zero light blinks three times and I close my eyes and look down open and 1.8 pounds. REALLY! I am so disappointed how can it only be 1.8 pounds I worked my ass off this week literally and this is my results.
OK so I know what some are saying it is a loss, Rome was not built in a day, you did not put all the weight on in a week, and I get that. But coming off a 8.5 week I was hoping for 5 pounds.
Next week who knows and I can only take it week by week, and I have my workout classes all set for next week so I pick myself up get a bottle of water and do this all over again.
I also have to say that I have some amazing friends, last night during my happy hour I did get tea instead of anything else and when I got up to leave they gave a me a round of applause for working so hard this week. It is so nice to have friends that are so supportive! This will help as I move through this year. Thank you guys I love you!
Well that is it for today thanks for listening (or reading)!

ReplyDeletewell, it isn't 5 lbs but it is still weight loss - I know that doesn't sound like much support but it is, believe me - I have lost 14 lbs since MAY 5 - so I know about slow loss - but the standard for loss that will stay gone is an AVERAGE of 2-3 lbs a week - so you are still above average (like we ever doubted that!) just think about how good thin feels and how much closer you are than you were even 6 months ago - love you sweetie and I'm so proud of you
ReplyDeleteI'm proud of you friend!! Hugs!! Keep it up.
