Well, Saturday has come and gone, and this morning, before heading to the train park, it was time to get on the scale. I actually look forward to it, I don’t dread it like I used too. I knew that I wasn’t going to be at my mid week weight, for two reasons: I always seem to weigh more on weekends, and there was the buffet dinner on Wednesday night.
Part of learning to control your eating is knowing your pit falls. My pitfalls are buffets and pizza. If you put a 36 inch pizza in front of me, I will eat it. And I mean all of it. I just can’t stop when it comes to pizza. My other pitfall is a buffet. I mean, with so m any options, how can you not go back. And so I knew that my midweek weight was not going to stand, but still, I was hoping for a loss.
I am happy to report that I weighed in at 358.4, for a total loss of 6.6 pounds. I got my little 5 pound star in my weight watchers online tracker So, since I like to put things in context, I am now less then a complete circle. My next big goal is to be less then two people, which is less than 340, since the friendly folks at the FAA consider 170 pounds to be an average adult. I think they need to revisit that measurement some time.
I also now have a tape measure for taking this scary body measurements. This ought to be interesting, but I will save that for another entry.
