To prove them wrong
Uncategorized August 28th, 2008Though I’d told myself that I would check my weight only once a week, the one-notch tighter belt tempted me to check my weight. I have not lost any more since my last weight-in. Not a bit! It is kind of disappointing. But then, it was silly of me to expect sudden miracles. On the other hand, I am PMSing right now and I do typically bloat up during this period. So maybe, just maybe, I have lost something and it’s not showing because of the water-retention. I guess that’s just wishful thinking. Oh well! Anything to get me going.
On a positive note, I met a friend after 3 weeks and she said that I was looking visibly slimmer. Yay! I sure hope it continues. My friend’s not so nice husband is always cynical every time I mention that I am going on a diet (and yeah, that’s happened many times and never led to sustaining weight-loss). But her husband can really be irritating, especially when he gives the knowing smirk. Well this time, I shall show him!
Today’s reason:
Reason no. 3: To prove my friend’s husband wrong

It always helps to just hear one person say four words ..- have you lost weight? - you look skinnier today! .. It just completley changes your outlook on the diet, and Its no longer just hopeless being miserable. Its people looking at you and seeing improvements.
and i will enjoy reading your blogs since we really have similiar goals and are new to this site!
And … on the bright side at least thats your friends husband and not yours. He sounds like a total waste of life. I would try to avoid those people until i was at least 20 pounds thinner so he has to eat any doubt he has.
But then again those people are never happy.
And I would try the South Beach Diet, but i feel like ive lost 5 -8 pounds in 20 days on atkins so I might reevaluate at the end of my 2nd month and say , “did i gain it back, did i feel tired a lot?, did i stop losing weight,etc”
Thanks for the encouragment, it actually put me in a much better mood
Reason no. 4: - Because im tired of the sadistic scale making me have bad days or good days.
