For the first time in three months the scale took an entire week to move. I weigh in on Thursdays. I actually get on the scale pretty much every day but I only record my weight loss on my ticker and on the calendar on Thursdays. From last week to this the scale would not go down for the life of me. So I decided I had better take a closer look at my calorie intake and again be more diligent and honest with myself about what I am putting into my body. I have been doing that and finally today the scale moved again and I was down 1.6 pounds today. What a relief!
I had a lot of doubt go through my mind as I watch the scale defy me to make a change. I will continue to change and as I do I know my body will become more healthy. I am not destined to be where I am, just because I haven't been smaller than I am in a very long time. I can overcome these challenges and I WILL! To all of my friends who are working so hard to take their lives back-you can do it! When there are days or weeks when it seems like your efforts are in vain-keep going! We are in this together and WE CAN DO IT!
What kind of pep talks do you all give yourselves when the scale won't budge?
