I gave up standing on a scale months ago. I decided to give myself the gift of not stressing over every pound or two. I used the fit of my clothes as a guideline. But this morning for kicks and giggles (and possibly a little vanity) I stepped on the scale.
That stupid candy bowl has made a weight gain victim of me. I'm embarrassed. I'm disappointed in myself. I even tried to convince myself that the extra weight was the clothes I was wearing. (right! no one wears THAT much clothes)
Damn it! I knew I might gain a pound or two from my last trip. I had kind of built that into my diet. I even had myself convinced that maybe I had lost a pound or two. But this morning the scale handed down the cold hard verdict. I need to stay away from the candy bowl and find a way to get more exersize in. It would help if I could also stay away from fast food.
I'm going to let it go until monday. Enjoy the last few days over the weekend of reckless eating. Then it's back to work. I worked too hard to get to a good point in my weight to fall back into the habit of over indulging.
I knew I should have stayed off that scale!
