Okay I am really getting upset with Mr. scary (aka my scale) I got on this morning and it said 204.5!!!! Woo hoo however stupid me said let's see that again. Got on again and it said 207!!!! I'm totally annoyed!! I am counting the 204.5 and going to buy my reward!! I derserve it like A said!! I stayed on plan and worked out when i was sick!! I drank 3 litres of water yesterday! I have thought about getting a new scale but I don't have the $$ at the moment and I'm nervous that the numbers would be different and I may have to start again. I've read a few stories like that on here.

I think I am going to try a leek detox today. It's from french women don't get fat. I am definitely retaining something so it is worth a try. Also I don't feel well so I figure soup will be a good thing now and easy to do since I don't feel like eating!

L- my smoke alarm was like yours so I got annoyed after awhile and took it down!!! Now I have to find what I did with it!

T & A- I'm feeling a bit guilty, like I'm the new one here and now I've caused some kind of trouble. Can we please put this behind us?

T & A~ i wish you too could work this out for the thread However I respect everyones feelings and will not bring it up anymore.

B~ We should write a book about the scale I feel like I'm reading my own post. I always have to jump on the scale twice to make sure the scale is right. I guess the way we step on can affect the numbers...or it's just evil I'm up .4 so I thought I did really good for not writing anything down...Oh well I guess thats why WW says to always write it down. maybe the scale knows I didn't write it down
I'm getting sick too I can feel Dh's cold coming on. I may be doing that soup diet with you. I eat alot of ice pops when I'm sick too ...not a big fan of soup but do eat it when I'm sick.

T~ How's your plan going? And the job Hope everything is okay there

I don't know whether I should get on and if it's good just get off the scale and be happy with what I got or should I take the average of 3 weigh ins? I bought my book toady and I am feeling happy with myself! As for the leeks. It is only 1:30 and I am hungry!! Leeks are not that filling!! I love soup but this is just broth and boiled leeks!! The book says to do it for 2 days but I think one is all I can handle!! If that!! I may eed to eat a real dinner or at least a piece of chocolate!!

I'm waiting for DD to come home from school then I am taking her for a walk, getting out my double stroller ..that will be a workout. The stroller weighs 35 lbs , DD 2 weighs 26 and DD 3 weighs 20!!!

L- I'm sorry you are up but point 4 is nothing!! Was that at WW? Do you weigh in with clothes on? At home I mean. I know at WW you have to

I hope you feel better soon! I'm getting sicker by the minute!!

L, dont worry about the .4 it is nothing.You are sticking with it and that is the important thing!!!
2b2, my advice here is to ignore your scale for a few days. That way you can focus on your daily goals, I did that and it really helped.
Today was a pretty good day, I may be getting transferred at work, but only for a short term. Went to the gym and spent an hour on the treadmill and 35 minutes in the sauna. Feel great!!!

Yuk...I'm really starting to feel crappy It sucks with dh not home cause now i still have to keep up all the TO DO's without any help. I should go up to the store and buy some cold meds but I so don't feel like it. Most likely will skip my meeting tomorrow if this is just the beginning of being sick.

B~ i have no idea what a leek is but will look it up later When my head doesn't feel like it's going to blow up. I weighed in at home. My meetings are usually tuesday but not sure about tomorrow.

T~ great job getting to the gym...the sauna sounds great too. Are you looking forward to being transferred?

hey l!

i decided not to dessert you! instead, i opted to fix my preferences so your posts are all i see i hope you feel better soon! i wish i lived near you to help you. i dont feel so good either

T- I had the same idea! I am still doing daily weigh ins but I will only really ffocus on my friday weight. What type of work do you do? Special ed? When will you know about the transfer? An hour on the treadmill is amazing!! Good for you!

L- some how you and I are catching what each other has!!! First the crazy scale now the cold!! Yesterday I was so sick I couldn't even stand up. It's now 3:45 am and I am awake. I feel crappy but I also can;t sleep so here I am! I also want to get soem cold meds but not sure what I can take as a nursing mom.

Leeks look like giant spring onions or scallions but they are actually more closely related to garlic. They taste really good. They are also a diuretic so very good when you are retaining water or the like. I think I may try to incorporate this soup just before my TOM. I didn't make it the whole day! At dinner I broke and had soem meat(sloppy joe night) and then I needed my chocolate fix!! I had some no sugar added bittersweet.

feelin better l?
