TheChunkyOne's Journal, 19 Nov 10

I woke up this morning to step on the scale for my official weigh in, and the scale said 138.8. A .8 gain. :( I was really upset about it this morning. My weight has fluctuated a ton this week, and i'm not really suprised that i gained...
I just wish i wasnt so hung up on the number! I dont know how to not care about it. I mean, its not even an entire pound, whoopty doo, but its killing me. It has almost ruined my day. I'm trying really hard not to let it.

I should have never checked my calories yesterday. I feel that sense of panic and anxiety now, thinking about every calorie that goes into my mouth. Its 9:45, lunch isnt till 12 and i'm starving. I ate about half of my oatmeal this morning, had my snack about 8:00 when i got here... and i'm afraid to eat anything till lunch. I know i've already had enough calories.. i cant stop thinking about the number!!

Seeing how many calories i've been eating (probably averaging 1500-2000 daily) and then seeing my gain, i'm freaking out.

Hang in there hun you will do just fine. Like you said it is only .8 and your aware of it, just don't cut back your calories too fast because it will mess with your metabolism =) You got THIS!

You just have to keep on trying. All of us have our off moments and weight loss can get to be extremely frustrating, but so many factors go into our weight fluctuations. Don't let it get you down because you're not finished. With every attempt, we come closer and closer to success. Keep it up. You can do it!

Well I have no wise words.. but I shall try.. ahem.. DUDE that stinks.. and keep a stiff upper lip.. how about this to shall pass. Did that help? Yeah.. I though not.. cause saying it did not make me feel very helpful either.. but you are doing an awesome job and you have lost a fair bit of weight.. and that was not just luck. IT was hard work and being mindful.. so rest assured you are not going to gain it all back in one week or one day with one slip up or 500 calories to many or to few here or there. So take a deep breath and try to not let that bastard of a scale get you down.. the scale is just a tool. ha look a double entendre. Anyway you are going to be fine you are just figuring things out.. making a plan.. And the scale is only one small part of said plan.. on one small thing to help you stay on track.. you tape measure is also a tool as is the way your clothes are fitting.. so dont let one thing override what the other things are telling you. And remember you awesome success you have had so far. All is right with the world and things will be just fine. Because you are aware and in control.
