Okkkkkkkkkk............I'll admit it. When someone else loses 1.4 pounds, I am all over it, congratulating them, cheering them on. BUT, when I lose 1.4 pounds, it is "only 1.4" and, yes, I am extremely disappointed. What's worth celebrating for "them" doesn't feel so good when it's me.
YES, I have been inside my head all day long bantering back and forth trying to be okay with this loss. I wasn't at class last week, so it's been two weeks since I weighed in and at my last WI, I gained 1.4.
Some background information is that I have been completely tracking and staying within my PPVs (daily and some weeklies) since April 29 when I first had access to etools. Prior to that time, I was tracking in my head and we all know how that works--it doesn't.
I know, I know..............a loss is a loss. A loss is a good thing.
Sooooooooooo, what now?? I do what I've been doing and head back to class next Saturday morning and the next and the next and the next...............I will NOT quit until I reach goal!!!!
And, now on June 3rd, I update this to say that I did keep doing what I'd been doing and went back to class on Saturday and lost. I lost .4 of a pound. Disappointing, to say the least.
How did I respond this week? Not quite as good as last week. I left my WW class and drove through Bojangle's. (Why did they have to build one of so close to my house???) UUGGGHHHHH!!!!! Made me sick as a dog, which, I guess, is a good thing. Bleck!!!!
Then, as I realized the frame of mind I was in and that I could not trust myself, I decided that the best thing to do was to quarantine myself to my home. I needed to run a couple of errands, but I realized that the better thing to do at this point was to protect myself from myself, so I grounded myself. I had plenty of PointsPlus friendly food at home, so I would be fine. The only thing I didn't get in today was my dairy servings since I'm out of milk. It wasn't the best nutritionally balanced day, but I stayed within my daily PPVs.

Love your thoughts today dear. They sound like they have met mwa.
Just press on dear. It's gonna get better in the days to come. I'm with you on this journey. I know it's rough at times, but you are enduring and succeeding by trying to figure out the real you. It's when we don't face the real, that we tend to just aimlessly float around getting into things deeper and deeper.
Woo HOOOO!!! for the .4 of a pound. Very proud of you! That was a hard .4 to lose wasn't it? I bet it was, so Proud of you!
