Hermiones Mom's Journal, 27 September 2015

Got a good example of HCB's point about "Why Scales Lie." Weighed in at 182.4 this morning for my first weigh on my brand new scale. Now there is absolutely no way I lost three pounds this week. But it is possible that a) my sister was right, and her scale weighs a bit heavy or b) since I finally went to the bathroom after I came home to my own house, I now weigh less. But I'm pleased nonetheless, because even if the scale isn't quite representative of the reality, it's clear that I am losing every single week. Goodie.

Meanwhile, did two walks today -- about 35-40 minutes this morning, and another 35 minutes late this afternoon. This afternoon I left poor Hermione at home and just took Carson. At almost 11, two 35 minute walks at good speed is a bit too much for her. Even Carson has now collapsed for a pre-dinner nap.

Next week, I'm hoping to get started getting an extra 20 minutes in on a stationary bicycle. I want to get going on that because it's the kind of bicycle that moves your arms as well as your legs, and I really need to start slimming my upper body. At the moment, my legs are getting thinner and thinner, but my middle is still too thick, which is making it difficult to find pants that actually fit. I'm going to try to stop by at the health club that's run by the hospital to see if I can get into some kind of program.

I know what you mean about pants fitting. If I get waist big enough it looks all baggy in legs and rear. Proper fit in legs and rear and can't button waist. I have found that the pants (and even jeans) that has a little bit of stretch to them is a godsend! I think my tummy is finally going down.....

Scales are all calibrated differently and the flooring effects the scale too (should be hard level surface). They should all be within a few pounds of each other. That's why it's best to weigh on same scale for most accurate gauge of weight loss. Same clothes, same time of day, same everything.
