Grrrrrrrrrrr.... not a good morning! I was so excited to see anything under 300lbs today! But...NOOOO! I get up early and step on the scale (after 5 days of liquids) and see that I gained 1/2 pound! WHAT?! and HOW?! I am exercising...sticking to s strict liquid diet..so what the heck?

 

I know it is just a 1/2 pound...but let me tell ya..to me it was like 10 lbs! I want to see that scale sing any number under 300! "299.11"...I don't care...I just want it! :rolleyes:

 

Oh well...had to get that off my chest! I am better now..and have strong hope for tomorrow! More water and walk a little longer today...surely that will help improve my numbers on the scale!

 

:P

Scales are fickle. Make sure you are taking other types of measurements as well. I took before surgery pics and then take updated pics at every month. I also measure every two weeks. I measure my upper arms, upper and lower legs, hips, hip and butt (the widest area), neck, waist and breasts. I often find a drop in inches even when the scale hasn't moved. :)

I agree with LindaS. The number on the scale may not budge, but you could lose a dress size. Also, your weight fluctuates throughout the day, so weighing in at the same time can be more accurate. The weight will come off. As hard as it is, be patient.

I weigh everyday, first thing in the morning...but no worries...it will come off...one way or the other! ;)

I am just so excited to see ANYTHING less than 300!
