dbdmom's Journal, 20 April 2015

Well, I think it's a bad idea for me to step on the scales the morning after my "cheat" day. I stayed at 164.5 for 5 days straight, and after endulging in a (and I reallly did enjoy it) juicy hamburger and a few fries and then some late night snacking (I really should have left that out)...my 3-lb swing scale swung 3 lbs in the wrong direction.

Oh well. I'm back on track today, and after I recover from all the salt I had yesterday and get back with the program, I half expect the scale to swing 3 lbs in one day back down again at some point this week.

My burger indulgence coincided with having dinner w/ my brother and his wife and their two kids who were in town for the afternoon/evening. My brother hasn't seen me in a couple of months, and he said, "You look GREAT, Sis!"

So, silly scale, take that. My brother thinks I'm looking great, and so does my sister-in-law, and my pants that I couldn't get into a few months ago are loose on me today. And I'm on top of this eating thing, and that number is gonna go back down before too long.

167.5 lb Lost so far: 25.5 lb.    Still to go: 32.5 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.
