Today has been a much easier day than yesterday. I feel less famished, which is a good thing.
What has NOT been good is when I weighed myself this morning I was up 3 lbs from yesterday. Now I know that can't be "real". And I know weighing yourself every day is not good.
Have I mentioned I'm slightly OCD? I am. I check the knobs on the stove every morning, full well knowing I didn't cook a damn thing. At Christmas time, I put my presents in a pile seperated from everyone else so that nothing gets mixed up. And I weigh myself daily. (Ok...I might be more than slightly OCD. I may be full blown crazy, but let's keep that between you and I).
Despite the obnoxious fact that I was up 3 lbs from yesterday, I LIKE seeing the numbers on the scale move. Hopefully from here on out, they will be in the OTHER direction. Even if it's only ONE pound, I like seeing those numbers move and seeing that I made some progress, even just a little.
On a side note, the lastest episode of the Biggest Loser premiered last night. As much as I hate that show, I still watch. (Again, crazy pants).
I hate the fact that they show someone losing 29 lbs in one week. (It may be that I am slightly jealous that I can't lose 29 lbs in one week.) But, I don't care how big you are, that's not healthy. Not only that, but that show is such a sham. If I had the time to work out 6 hours a day, you bet your butter covered popcorn I could lose 29 lbs in a week too.

Oh that show drives me bananas but there are some things I just love about it too! I cannot stop watching. It's inspirational to see the huge changes the contestants go through but I HATE that people watching at home might think they aren't trying hard enough because they can only lose 1 or 2 pounds a week. If only everyone could take a year off to do nothing but work out all day and have their meals prepared for them!
ReplyDeleteExactly. I just saw an article about the season 3 winner who gained all but 30 some lbs back. It's so sad and unfortunate because you know these people really want to lose the weight, but they lose it so quickly and lose it working out 8 hours a day its just impossible for it not to creep back on!
