Some of you may have read my posts earlier. I am at the point of my journey where I am slightly underweight. I weigh exactly 100lbs by my scale and I have weighed this give or take 2 lbs for my monthly cycle since around November. I step on the scale everyday because I must for some obsessive compulsive reason just to see if I am safe. I keep my sclae in the kitchen, and when I am tempted to eat something bad, I step on the scale to remind me not to. Yesterday, when I came home from work, I stepped on the scale and it read 107.5! It was not my cycle time! Oh my gosh! Here comes the dreaded weight gain! I am in an instant panic. I checked the scale, yes it was on absolute 0 when I started. Oh my Gosh! I am repeating over and over out loud. My husband came in because he heard what he likened to an Irish death keening sound. What is the matter he asks? I have gained 7.5 lbs in a day! I am going to blow up again. I don't know what to do!. He looked at me for a minute like I was a total idiot (I can be at times) then he said calmly and coldly, "Put your purse down." Whew, instantly 7.5 lbs gone forever! What do I carry in my purse?
