Default Holy crap!
Today has been a stressful, depressing day. But I stepped on the scale anyways, because for some reason I am just addicted to knowing. TOM is here. I haven't walked in two days. Calories have been low, but that's because I'm too stressed out to eat. Anyhow, not a good combo, for sure. But I did it anyway, because stupid inquiring minds HAVE to know, even if it's not a good idea.

302.

302!

Granted, it probably won't look that way tomorrow. Probably back up to 305. But I SAW it! It was THERE, right in front of my eyeballs. I almost cried. At this moment, I am only 3 lbs away from 299...a number I have not seen in over 5 years. I will officially weigh in wednesday, because that's just what I do, and I am sure the number will be higher than that. But I saw it. That's what matters. I saw it, and I WILL see it again soon. And now, I am going to go work out.

Congrats! I know what you mean about the scale prob going up again but SEEING that number IS important. It's the lows -- however they come about -- that help spur us on.... even if we know they may be temporary.

You're doing great!!!!!

Yahooo, Winter!!! I love seeing a low number on the scale. I think those count. Because even if it's a fluke of water or something else, that is what your body weighed right then. How could that not count?! And if your body bounces up for the next few days, the beauty of it all is that if you stick with it, you will see that number again. Congrats for you on getting ready to kiss the 300's goodbye!!!

Oh, WinterStarzz, that is absolutely thrilling that you are so much closer to that goal of 299! I'm probably darn near as excited about it as you are!
