I was pretty annoyed with myself for a few reasons. I weighed myself at the gym and it said I am 221. Which means I gained a pound. And then I dug my scale out from hiding and weighed myself again. Why did I do that? I really just couldn’t go a week without weighing myself.
And then I went to Costco and had a few little samples here and there. A french fry here, a little piece of chicken there. And a chocolate bar. I’m allowed to have chocolate but not everyday. And I went to the gym but only ended staying for an hour even though I had A LOT of time I could kill. I know its probably ridiculous but I just don’t feel good because I don’t think I’m losing weight. Plateau this soon? AH! I know I am probably overreacting and obsessing. I just want to keep on losing!
I so need to stop being so hard on myself. Ya think?
I just wanted to say that because of your weight loss I went out and bought the South Beach diet book yesterday and went shopping today to get the food.
It’s probably just water weight from working out too hard =)
That can happen right?

I KNOW about plateaus and it all about perseverance and patience…hmmm where did this impromptu pep talk come from?
