The scale is broken. It must be broken. It keeps coming back with the same freakin number! I tried to tell hubby it was broken and we needed a new one. He agreed... because his weight keeps going up. Apparently he doesn't weigh 163.6.
I think the scale isn't moving because I maybe celebrated a little too much this weekend. I found out I got the promotion Friday at work. Then I found out the promotion came with a lil raise. Here I just wanted the word Senior put in front of my title and I got Senior plus a raise. Woohoo! To which my hubby peed on my parade by figuring out what the raise equaled and compared it to some of his farm bills. Like the $3000 diesel fuel bill or the $7000 feed bill or the $4000 morgage payment. He didn't find the humor in my saying how many shoes I could buy or how many pairs of skinny pants I could buy and try to fit my butt into.
I think another reason the scale isn't moving is because of my mother. I recently put some pictures on face book of me holding little man or standing in the backgound of pictures of the 8 yr old. Usually I would burn these but I didn't think I looked so blimpish so I kept them. A couple days later a mysterious package appeared from my mother. Full of hot cocoa mix. Homemade hot cocoa mix. OMG It's chocolate, creamy, comes in gingerbread, french vanilla, and hazelnut. It's better than sex. It also requires 1/3 cup mix to 1 cup water. I asked for the calorie count or even a list of ingrediants and they still haven't come. I couldn't resist temptation though. Now my mom and I have both been around 180 for as long as I can remember. Sometimes I was a little heavier but we've both always been within 10-15 lbs of each other. Now.. I'm 20 lbs less and I'm pretty sure the woman is trying to set me up! She used the hurricane that barely touched us as an excuse. How does hurricane = hot cocoa?!?!?! The woman is evil.

Congrats on the promotion and raise! A little celebration... ok in my mind, you'll see a loss soon after good behavior this week! I hate when my scale reads the EXACT same thing for days on end.. like seriously, no change at all? Not even a little water imbalance??

We need a reward of some sort like if we don't slip up for a month then we go shopping or something.

That HC sounds amazing. I definitely would have caved as well. In fact, I am thinking that you should give my mailing address to your mom and she can send me the next batch. You know... to save you from it. You don't have to thank me, that's what FS buddies are for. ROFL!

DFW We can't wait that long... holiday shopping! And yes you can feel free to share. Flavored HC's are my weakness in the winter!

I surfed a few recipe sites and I think it equals to about 150 calories a cup from what ingrediants I remember her using. Between the powdered sugar, creamers, cocoa, and who knows what else I should be bouncing off the walls tonight. I'll be sure to share.. if there is any left by morning.
