The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly Truth

I have good news and I have bad news. I prefer getting difficult information first so that I have something to look forward to after my world crashes down around me, so here it is: the scale hasn’t really moved much since I weighed-in on Saturday. The good news? The scale hasn’t really moved much since I weighed-in on Saturday.

Considering that I just got through two Thanksgiving dinners complete with dessert, I think that is cause for celebration… cheesecakes for everyone!!! Just kidding! I am very happy that my weight didn’t skyrocket with all the yummy festive food though – and, in fact, I am actually very slightly down which is definitely a first following a holiday feast – but now I need to get back to regularly scheduled programming. I will have to work even harder over the next few days to make sure that I have another good loss when I next face the foul one-inch thick beastie that haunts my washroom floor.

  2. Not so fast taking back that cheesecake! To stay the same for 2 big dinners is simply terrific. Now you can breathe again or get back to your "regularly scheduled programming." ( I love that.)

  4. That scale is nothing to be afraid of. You've gotten smarter about food choices and it sounds like you didn't go overboard too much. Stand on that scale with confidence.

  7. Two holiday meals w/ dessert and you didn't gain weight? That is nothing short of a miracle I hope we can all do that well.
