This is crazy! I put new batteries in the scale yesterday, but didn't get on it because I had already eaten breakfast, and it was mid-day. This morning, I get on the scale, dreading the fact that I didn't do very well over the weekend. 241.0 lbs.! I knew that couldn't be right; something was wrong with the scale. 5 times, I got on the scale with exactly the same results. Hmmm. This time I picked up the trash can and a basket of DW's lotions and got back on the scale. 245.0 lbs. So, OK, the scale is responding to a difference. After I got dressed, I decided that, after I put on my full attire for work - safety shoes and everything - I will weigh again on the scales at home, and then again on the scale at work to compare. 248.0 lbs. at home. I get to work and weigh-in on the scale at 248.0 lbs. The nurse tells me the scale in the clinic was just calibrated. My home scale is accurate. Holy Moley; 241.0 lbs. My motivation is back. Even though I spiked to 251.0 right after I started back up, at 249.0, I am considering my starting weight at 249.0. That's an 8.0 lb. drop since the 14th. I guess those treadmill workouts were doing more for me than I thought. I'm psyched! Even if it's a fluke, it's a good morale booster. I was getting a little lackadaisical after my experience with the Pagoda this weekend.
I didn't do much yesterday. Washed one of the motorcycles, and the dog. Ran a few errands. Very hot and humid! Going to be about 93 today and 96 tomorrow with a heat index of around 104. I plan a good workout on the treadmill tonight, but other than that, who knows. Here's hoping all my FS Buddies have a wonderful and comfortable day. But not too comfortable; get that heart pumping! Toodles!
