Not my feet, not my scale, not my weight
One of those pounds I lost last week found me again. Given how stressful the week was, I’m glad it wasn’t worse. It could have been worse from a weight perspective; I was very stressed due to Joel’s episode, and I wasn’t able to work out the way I normally would. I’m still down 111.6, so don’t cry me a river.
There was also a little voice saying, “go ahead,get something decadent! You deserve it! You need it!” I did well ignoring that voice, and didn’t get the slices of cake strategically placed by the entrance of the grocery store. But I did pound down more of those “filling foods” than I usually would have. I’m a little disappointed, as I was doing so well there for a while.
I did talk to my leader about what my goal weight should be, and her perspective was that if I’ve made all the changes I’m comfortable with, and if I’m satisfied with the weight I’m at, I should talk to my dr so I can get a letter so I can go on maintenance at WW. Maintenance is a big deal for WW, because you can get weighed in and attend meetings for free. It’s a different mindset for sure. I’ll have to think if I’m ready to say “this is it.” Given it will take two months to get an appointment with my dr, I’ll have some time to think about it.
