Oh man, what an incredible episode this week’s show was! So much inspiration – both by the contestants’ example and the sharing of their new insight. I can’t imagine how they must have felt to put those body suits on that made them their old weights. That must have been extremely difficult. But what perspective it must have given them! The video flashbacks had me tearing up, of course. They’ve all come so far and have put themselves through so much over the course of the competition.

And the roller coaster continues! I lost 2.5 pounds this week! So, I am back down 149.4 lbs. Only 0.6 lb till I reach 150 lbs gone! I followed the plan really carefully last week, tracked everything I ate, and drank a lot more water. It evidently paid off. I’m determined to do it again this week!

There is a great article that I read shortly after joining Weight Watchers concerning the perils of constantly peeking at the scale. It was recently brought to my attention again and I still find it incredibly useful.
If you ever have a tendency to peek at the scale and perhaps freak if you see an abnormally large gain, this article is for you.
Why The Scale Lies

WHOOHOO! I lost 1.7 pounds this week! I’m not quite back to where I was before I started gaining (need to lose 0.7 lbs more to get to where I was), but I’m exactly one pound away from having lost 150 pounds. Let me tell you, there will be a celebration at my house on that day, as well as an update to the Blue Shirt Comparison picture. Maybe next week? I’m afraid to be too hopeful, though. For today, I’m pretty darn happy.
I think that has been part of my problem. The novelty of the weight loss had worn off [ ... ]

Considering the week I’ve had, I was expecting at least a six pound gain. Especially since I literally ate everything in sight. I saw it. I wanted it. I ate it.
Somehow, miraculously, I was only up 0.4 lb this week! It’s either a miracle, or it just hasn’t caught up to me yet. I guess I’ll find out next week. Keep your fingers crossed for me (or say a little prayer, whatever you’re into)!

Whoohoo! I’m back on track, guys! Even with my little after weigh-in binge of last Tuesday, I was able to pull it together to bring in a loss of 1.2 pounds this week! Yay! I’ll just ignore the fact that I weigh exactly what I did 3 weeks ago. <sigh> But, at least I’m heading in the right direction again. Hopefully I can keep up the momentum!

Sadly, I was only down 0.1 of a pound this week! Ugh. I prefer to believe that it is a glitch – hormonal or otherwise.

I admit it. I peeked. I peeked at the scale today. Sadly, it says that I’ve gained another pound. See, this is the danger of peeking at the scale in between weigh-ins. It can make you crazy. I refuse to believe that I will gain for a second week in a row while following the plan. Keep your fingers crossed that it’ll disappear by Tuesday!
