So, it’s that day. If you’ve read anything that I’ve written the past couple weeks you know I’m in a funky mood (aka I’m depressed…might as well call it what it is and face that music as well). Last week I had a very weird weight gain so I took a free pass for the challenge. But, I’ll fess up here…the scale screamed 210.something when I got on it. It was my TOM so that played a part in it but I just didn’t want to face it. Plus, I had eaten more meat that week then I’m used to and I’m finding that meat and my body don’t get along too well.
So, I hopped on the scale this morning…
Challenge Start: 208.8
Last Week: Free pass (prior week 206.2)
This week: 206.2
Loss for the week: 0.0 lbs
Total Loss for Challenge: 2 .6 lbs
I’m not even looking at or thinking about what the scale actually said last week because I don’t need that on my mind.
So, if I want to be positive a two week maintain in with the mood I’m dealing with is actually very good. But, I need to move onward and updownward.
So, this week, I need to focus on:
So, those are my goals this week. Water and weigh ins. LOL
But, on a really good note I have to tell you about something that made me happy last night. I think I’ve mentioned before that my family makes comments about the “weird” food I eat. I’ve actually stopped wanting to eat with them because of it. Well, last night I was helping my sister-in-law with something and she started making dinner. She looked at me and said “I have some beans in the cupboard do you want to stay for dinner? We’re having burritos. I have leftover chicken but there’s some beans and you can make a bean & rice burrito.”
It was one of the nicest comments I’ve received in a while. I don’t expect special treatment or special meals made for me because I’ve decided to cut meat out. I just don’t want people making a big deal out of it. So, it actually made me really happy to have a bean & rice burriot with my brother’s family.
OK…now to face the music in my inbox. Sigh…
