Today's weight is......
 

172.2
Stellar!
Had a fabulous week and a half.
I have a feeling the next weigh in won't be as generous, could even show a gain, but I'm thrilled that my effort paid off.

I know its awful to be so emotionally connected to the weigh in, but its hard to keep those emotions in check, whichever way they sway.

Its worse when you've done everything "right" and the scale doesn't reflect that...but on the other hand when you've been "off" and the scale registers a loss, its a different emotion altogether, huh?

My weigh in exceeded my expectations, although it does reflect the effort I put into it.

Edited to add...after 3 weeks the same, and a small gain.....5 pounds dropped is HUGE!

Couldn't agree more! Great job on a fabulous weigh in!

wow! 5 lbs is awesome! I would be flabbergasted if that happened to me! Congrats!

Wow, great loss! Congrats. :)

Yay for exciting losses!!! (and for great attitudes!)

Yeah!! What a wonderful weigh-in ;-) Whenever I get a big woosh it's even more motivation to want to see an even lower number!
