This morning, after my weigh in, I'm full of anticipation. I want to scream, cry, shout with joy and jump up and down like a child with sheer abandonment. I have finally, FINALLY, gotten under 170 lbs! The satisfaction I feel would be intensified only if I had reached the 169 mark, but unfortunately for me the scale was not that generous today. 169.6. Now .8 oz is half a lb and my bathroom scale will say .8 if you're close to a half lb and if slightly over will round you up to the nearest half lb. IF you're just under a half lb it will tell you so, but if you're say just 2 oz from a whole lb it rounds you down. SO, I'm stuck and 169.6 or a 1/3 of a lb. 6 oz is all that stands between me and my 90 lb weight loss mark today. Peanuts is what it is. Peanuts...I hate peanuts.
I guess it's kind of my fault. I have been taking it rather easy lately. But with all the holiday hustle and bustle I'd rather not burn myself out and quit altogether. We have been eating out a bit, even though I make healthier choices and skip options like pop, french fries, sauces, or chips. But the salt, it adds up. Over the next few days it should start to drop off. I'll get there, but if I don't watch the salt on Christmas eve and Christmas day I'm in trouble. Fingers crossed. Soon.
