TMI and an apology

"I'm not losing weight. I'm getting rid of it. I have no intentions of finding it again!"

 

Some weeks are easier than others. This week has been dang hard. I haven't felt super duper. I know. Excuses, excuses. Well let me tell you, I've had a migraine or at least a horrible headache since Tuesday evening and...

 TMI warning

Aunt Flo decided to make a surprise visit.

I hate that!

I hate her!

And if I haven't been super pleasant around you, I'm truly sorry.

I type this as I wait to weigh in for the night. I'm not expecting a loss today. If  there is one, it most likely will be minimal. I have to be ok with that.  I've lived the program 100%. What this means is, if I've bitten it, I've written it. You'll see in my daily tracker that not everything I've eaten is green, grown in the ground or has come from a tree. Not everything I eat has loads of fiber and protein. I actually eat REAL food. Food from my pantry that isn't labeled "high fiber," "low fat," or even "whole grain." I actually eat at restaurants. I just don't feel like I've done anything that will show on the scale. I DO feel like I'm losing inches though, and those won't show on the scale. It sounds weird, but my toe ring is loser, my wedding ring is loser, and my t shirts are a LOT loser. And I noticed that I can even turn the steering wheel in my car without my belly getting in the way. #littlevictories just keep adding up and I'll take lost inches any day! Now, I won't get rid of my toe ring, or my wedding ring or even my car for that matter, but I did go through my closet this morning and build a bag of clothing items to donate to our church's service project. I'm not losing weight. I'm getting rid of it. I have no intentions of finding it again, so I don't need the too big for me clothes anymore either. 

 

So now I pause this writing as it is my turn to face the scale. Stay tuned.

*Hum Final Jeopardy music if you must*

And I'm back.

The scale surprised me. If you've read up to this point, your support is appreciated.

 

 

Weighing in:

- 2.2 Week 9 (I was TOTALLY not expecting that!)

- 27.0 total

 

You guessed it....

 

I think that's ok, Right?
