Change in perspective
Posted 01-28-2008 at 10:17 PM by QueenMama
I've been obsessing over the scales. Weighing every day, being discouraged by the up-and-down, up-and-down movement (enough to cause motion sickness!) of the scales. Seeing a lb go, then return.
I started on the original Atkins plan on January 4, so it's been just a bit over 3 weeks, and as of Sunday I've lost 3 1/4 lbs. At first I was just kind of peeved at not seeing consistent losses, but looking at it again, losing this is actually about a lb a week, a very reasonable loss, nice & steady.
Guess I'll stop the daily weighing, and just do this every Sunday morning. Perhaps I'll have less angst, and feel better about the losses. I'd really be happy with just one lb a week, that would be absolutely fabulous.

I am the same way when I weigh every day, Nita. I know it doesn't work that way, but I tend to feel discouraged without the constant downward motion, and my weight doesn't come off like that.
A pound a week is very reasonable and steady. And you know what I always say: Any pound gone is a good pound gone, man!Posted 01-29-2008 at 05:47 PM by Goddess

Isn't life a roller coaster. The ups and downs can really be a B&*^%.Posted 02-05-2008 at 04:16 PM by dad2bike
