It's not even day one, tomorrow is day one.... but my scale is already going down. I know from years of dieting that this is a fluke. You know, one day can never be the tell all! The scale might say you're down a pound today, but you might be back up two tomorrow. I mean, of course we all want to celebrate the numbers spiraling down, but it MUST be a pattern.
This is real. If you celebrate losing one pound today and cry tomorrow when it comes back, you are doomed to ride the misery roller coaster! I DO weigh myself everyday, just to be aware, not to count on it. If I'm slipping I want to know. If I'm doing something right, I want to know. You just can't wrap up too many emotions in that number, or you'll head for the Haagen Daaz and we all know where that leads.
So, today, day negative one, I'm 1.5 down. It's a fluke. I know it. ;)
