Today's WI

After a TOM gain of 1 lb two weeks ago and a post-Easter gain of 0.4 last week, I was really nervous about today because I was part of a luncheon yesterday (was the chairperson). I did a fair share of walking around (in heels, LOL) but I also scarfed down my meal when I was served -- chicken marsala, two servings of vegetables, skipped the mashed potatoes. The servers wouldn't wrap the cheesecake, so I ate that too! The verdict: down 3.8! I would have loved to crack 180 today, but I'll take it! The WW receptionist who weighed me had never met me before and she was highly impressed. I've said this before but I'll say it again -- no matter what the scale says, don't quit what you're doing! I swear, that WI made the drive in the rain completely worth it!

I'll have my pic from yesterday scanned and in my photo album tomorrow.

Heya,      Oh no!  Not the dreaded cheesecake! :-0  That was my bane last month (TWICE!).      One of the reasons I think weight loss is so hard is that the effects are not immediate.  As in when I exercise extra hard/really watch my food, the big drop in weight tends to occur several days later.  So there is often no instant gratification.  And the opposite is true as well.  When I eat too much, the effects seem to be the worst 2-3 days after I ate the stuff.  If only we could have immediate rewards on the scale and immediate punishment for our behavior.  I think we could "train" ourselves much better that way. LOL      I'm having another day of insane cravings (I even DREAMED about a binge last night).  At least I realized that I'm almost at that TOM, so it's not really me...it's these blasted hormones.

Wow! Good job.  That is very motivational - 3.8 down.   I so agree - just keep on keeping on despite the scale.  That is the key. We tend to get so depressed and give up on our food plans.  I did not know ww ever met on Sundays! I have not weighed now for two weeks, due to vacation and TOM last week. My day is coming up Tuesday.  I have not had a great day today, but I'll keep the faith.
