Date with the Scale – 8/17
24 Aug
Oh what a crazy week I have had. I moved into a new apartment this weekend and since then, I have done nothing but run around to buy this and that for the new place. In that chaos, I completely forgot to update you about my weigh in… it did not go the way I wanted it to but the end result was positive.
I set foot on the scale and weighed in for a 2lb. loss. I usually do really well my 1st week back on program so I expected maybe a 5lb. or 7lb. loss that week. I tried not to be mad at myself though. All in all, I think I did really well even though I wished it was a bigger loss. I spent some time in the pool and ate more vegetables than I have in a very long time.
The 1st week’s loss may not be stellar but the week after that can be a good one. That has happened to me a few times, my good behavior catches up with me eventually. Had I weighed in yesterday, I think I would have had some good news to report but with all the craziness, completely spaced on my weigh in. I’m going to go weigh in on Saturday instead, maybe make that my day instead of Tuesday. I’ll let you know what the scale says then.
Congrats on the 2 lbs and the new apt.
I applaud your re-connection and your 2 lb. loss. Yay for you! Your statement “my good behavior catches up with me eventually” is GOLD. That’s what we have to bear in mind when the scale is a bit stingy (I wrote on my blog that I was not thrilled with my .5 loss this week, so I feel you!)
Yay for the veggies, and yay for a fresh start.
