Yesterday went pretty well. I was really hungry at night, so I had an extra couple of spoonfuls of peanut butter. The lady at the center told me I could have anything on that sheet as a snack, so I suppose it was okay. I really wanted to do without the snacks, but oh well. My schedule makes it difficult because mealtimes are not ideally spread apart evenly as they would be if my work/school schedule weren’t so crazy. I only have a couple more weeks of that left, though, so that’s good.
I’m updating my weight ticker, so it will now be displaying my real weight. When I went in to weigh, the lady said, “Wow. You haven’t weighed that since December 1st.” I thought that was rather insensitive. I mean, I’m back and re-enrolled, so obviously I realize there’s a problem, and I knew how much weight I had gained. It was like she thought I wasn’t properly humble or upset about it. I knew what the scale was going to show. Now I just need to stay positive. She’s one of the people in there who have never had a weight problem ever. Some of them have been through the program, and some of them haven’t. Most of the ones who haven’t are fine, but I have never really liked her very much. She just tends to say the wrong thing at the wrong time. Okay– just needed to vent.
weight at home (Monday): 179.5
MRC weight: 181.5
As a side note, I’ve already weighed this morning (Tuesday), and it’s 174, so I’m dropping fast. I know that’s not real fat, but it’s still a good loss of something.

Great job on your first day. Only having some peanut butter for a snack is pretty good. That lady was pretty insensitive. You don’t need her to inform you of that! You’ve obviously decided to do something about which is wonderful and a lot more than most people would do - so at that point you need positive encouragement. Goodness!
