    Default I can't believe it

    I'm in shock. Utter shock. I weighed myself yesterday (I only weigh weekly on Tuesdays). The scale said a number I haven't seen in FOREVER. 300 lbs. 300lbs!!! After two weeks of only losing a pound at a time, I couldn't believe it. During the last two weeks, I became so discouraged. I mean, I know when we women get our monthly friend we can put on a lot of water weight, but I didn't think it was that much! Wow.
    I am so happy! Just thought I'd share this with all of you.

    Congrats! I'm a firm believer in staying off the scale early on, weigh maybe once a month. (Or your once a week works too, just not daily). The fluctuations mess with your head! Happy for your progress!

    Nicely done! Stay the course and your life will be forever changed. I agree with previous comments about the scale. It can really mess with your head and we do that to ourselves enough already! I am just doing once a month until I reach my goal weight and then I will use daily just to keep myself in check from the previous day. Best of luck on your continued Journey. Just imagine yourself and your pictures in just a short 11 months!!!
