I know it's important not to get too fixated on the numbers on the Electronic Number Generator; and that's it's crucial to celebrate the NSVs loudly!
but I want to make a plea for being brave and accountable too.
Last week I was feeling so grim, didn't eat good quality stuff, although I did keep to the calorie budget. I KNEW I was getting to the 'I'm going to gain weight and I just don't care' stage. It happens. It does to me anyway.
So I got on the scales and discovered a 6 ounce blip up. and I was encouraged that it wasn't more.
A couple of days on (today) I got back on, let's monitor this creep up, and I'm back down the 6 oz. and now I'm: OK! let's do it! let's start losing properly again!
In my past, I've allowed the little blips to go unnoticed, because I was too scared to get on the scales and see them. STG, that's how I regained 89lbs! just by being too scared to get on the scales and see how bad the numbers were. 89lbs of denial. wow.
Not promoting over-scalization but if you think something's slipping, don't be afraid to check it out - catch it in time, tie a knot and go on.
Steps off soapbox.
