Can we all please take a vote and agree that July is going to be the crappiest month this year and it’s only going to get better after this?? Please?

I’m having a truly sucky day.  Mostly just one of those days where every damn thing that could go wrong has gone wrong.  Not the least of which is that I had my oil changed on Saturday (finally) and now it’s leaking something where it most definitely wasn’t before.  So now I get to go in tomorrow and get that checked out.  I so want to get back to my old schedule without having to get up early so often.

So then, among the various other assorted bad news and accidents and mistakes that have plagued my day, I hear that my favorite actor for like the past 20 years was arrested.  The same actor I raved about over the weekend.  Mr. Batman himself.  I refuse to judge, though, until the truth of what happened comes out - if it ever does. 

It’s just been a long day and I’ll be very pleased when July is over with.  Oh, and on par with the rest of my day, I failed on my first day of my personal dare.  I had so much going on that I never got around to eating breakfast.  Although, with the way the antibiotic I’m on has been affecting my stomach, it’s probably not so terrible that I didn’t.

The only good thing to happen to me today is that I didn’t have the exorbitant gain at my weigh-in that I thought I was going to have.  It’s a miracle.  Hallelujah!  It would have been totally undeserved (although I did slack on my exercise), but it’s just been one of those days where I was sure it would happen.  Luckily, I was wrong.  I only lost 0.9 lbs, but it’s a loss! 

On a happier note, I also lost another BMI point today.  In total, I’ve lost 26 BMI points since I started WW.  I’m also really close to reaching another mini-goal for myself which I’ll share when I reach it.

I am also perilously close to losing another point.  Ack!!  I’m having a hard enough time with the amount I’ve given now!  When it happens, and I lose another point, I think that I’m going to feel something that I haven’t really felt yet on this journey.  For the first time since starting Weight Watchers, I think I’m going to start feeling like I’m on a “diet.”  Ugh.

Total lost to date:  162.3 pounds
