A Reprieve

After two disastrous days of eating this week, I was a just a week away from my doctor's appointment, where I'd hoped to be "Overweight" instead of "Obese."  Just one week to lose 3.5 pounds. That's a lot to lose in just a week . . . wait a minute. Today's Friday.  Next Friday?  We have co-op next Friday! 

I called the office to reschedule and got an appointment for the 16th instead. So I now have plenty of time to hit that mark--almost three weeks!  I'm tempted to adjust my goal down a little, and I might still do that. But I'm  interested to see what I can do by next Friday as well.

I know it's just a numbers game, and making healthy choices is more important. But it's still gratifying when the numbers reflect those choices, too.

Hi Kimmer! I feel you on wanting to see the scale reflect our healthy choices. I don't feel that it's just a numbers game at all, especially when you have as much weight to lose as we do. It is imperative that the number on the scale continues to go down; otherwise, we'll never become healthier and reach our goal weight.
