Week 25 WI - Worlds Biggest A-hole

OK guys, thanks for indulging me while I took a swan dive off the deep end. I don't know what got into me... I could sit here and make excuses all day about why I freaked out over nothingm really, but I won't because the bottom line is I don't have any room to bitch. I feel badly for complaining about what turned out to be water weight (I could feel it releasing itself from my ankles last night--ewwww!) and making such a big deal about it. I know better, and I thought I was better than that, but I guess I am not.

This morning I am back at 162.4, no change from last week. That's the last time I say I want to lose 3 pounds in one week!

Glad

Glad things turned out better for you than you thought they would.  Don't worry about your freak-out, we're all entitled from time to time.  Now, if it turned into an all out perpetual pity party that would be another thing altogether... ;)  It's a new week, and I'm sure you'll kick some serious butt this week!

I hear you

Even though you know now that it really wasn't that big of a deal... at the time it's devastating.  You're working so hard and then when the stupid scale doesn't show it... it's hard.   But you're SOOOO close to goal... omgosh... Here's to a new week!

Don't sweat it...

We ALL have our freak out moments along this journey.  That is what we are all here for.

Keep up the great work.

You're Not!

An A-Hole!! Lol. That was funny though! We all freak out at time! Be gentle with yourself. It was your time!! Have a wonderful weekend!

Btw: can I eat FF yougurt on Core? Like, Dannon Lite n' Fit? I don't think I can eat plain FF! Yuck! What about Kashi Go Lean for breakfast! Help!!

So glad....

to know that I'm not the only one on this site who completely freaks out! I go into a tailspin over the littlest gain b/c of my fear of gaining all of my weight back. So you are not alone!! I have the same love/hate relationship with my scale.

Keep drinking the water and remember that muscle ways more than fat so if you are exercising and developing all of those wonderful muscles...you may still be losing the fat but gaining the weight which helps us boost metabolism in the form of muscle mass.

You are doing great! Keep up the good work!!

tailspin over water

Thanks for stepping into my role as resident freaker-outer while I was out of town. Glad that water finally got out of your ankles. It's funny, but I get less upset when the scale jumps up a lot, like two pounds, because I know it's water. No one can gain two pounds in two days. For example, last night I ate a small bag of popcorn that had that orange popcorn salt all over it and some cured olives. I knew the scale would show it this morning. So, when I was up 2.5 lbs from yesterday, I just had to laugh. Wow! That was some serious salt!  I didn't record the weight and popped a water pill. If it's still up tomorrow, then I'm in trouble . . .

welcome back from the dark side!

Something I need to remember more often - this too shall pass.
