Before After

Karma's a bitch

I offically hate my scale and want it to die a thousand deaths. Perhaps it is a TAD mellodramatic for me  to be so upset about 2 pounds when up until this point I haven't gained at all, really, but I am very frustrated. In fact I think that's why its bothering me so much. I am freaking out about back sliding all the way to 219.5 again. I need to get a grip, and fast. Maybe after I chug this 32oz bottle of water...

breathe slowly...

Has it occurred to you that its muscle weight?  I mean, you look fabu!  Eventually that muscle is going to start catching up to you...

I know what you mean, even watching the scale go up for ToM is depressing.  But its life, hon.  And what's with the karma?  Did you make fun of a really fat person or something, and they wished their fat on you? ;-)

the sky is falling!

You had a really long run without gaining so I can see that thee 2 lbs would be very upsetting, BUT:  you are not going to gain everything back in a week or two, and you're not going to repeat this weekend's indulgences on a regular basis. 

Keep drinking water!  If you can still think enough to feel scared after chugging 128 oz or so, you have amazing powers of anxiety--I always just have to pee so bad nothing else bothers me anymore. :)

hey girl, have been doing so well.  That scale is just a maching to give you a guide to how you are doing.  Weigh in the morning over a week, then see how it is.  It's ok. 

Breathe

Take a deep breath... Good. Now relax. TOM blows and so do scales. Do not let one weekend of eating other than healthiful get you down. You cannot undo all the positive changes that you have already made that quickly. You will not go back up to your old weight. Just breathe...

Thanks again for the Core recipes!!

I misread your title as "Karma's Bitch"--which works well also.  I purposefully indulge in negative fat people thought (I am fat, so this has its limitations). To keep myself from indulging at restaurants, I find one person in the room whom I DO NOT want to resemble, and one person in the room whom I DO want to resemble.  It works, sometimes.
