Losing the Last 14 (One More Time)

Weekly Weigh-in

I did actually weigh in on Sunday, but I've just been too busy to post.  I was shocked to see the scale move down to 132.6.  I don't know if I'll get a number that good on Sunday.  My eating has not been wonderful this week, although not terrible.  I did have an anniversary dinner where I drank two glasses of wine.  I've also had a few treats.  My exercise has been consistent but not outstanding.  So,  we'll see.

Getting so close to the 120's again is honestly making me a little nervous.  I'm afraid of screwing up so close to my goal.  The silly thing is that I'm pretty much back where I started in October, when I originally wanted to lose about 7 pounds.  And then I gained 7, the first time I've ever gained while weighing regularly.  So painful. 

But I figure it was BECAUSE I weighed regularly that I stopped gaining and then started losing.  In the past, I've gone into much deeper denial regarding my weight, and then I end up in a real mess. 

I need to be a little more positive with myself about finishing this.  Maybe I also just need to focus on getting to 129 and then do some re-evaluating.  Maybe I'll want to stay there.  Maybe I'll want to go a step farther.  Either way, it's fine.
