Late As Usual

Well, I am a total loser and I haven't gone to buy a scale yet. I had totally guessed at my starting weight last Saturday since I didn't have a scale. On Thursday, I dropped by one of those weight loss clinics near work that I had the guy on the radio talk about. I knew before I walked in that I couldn't afford to do their program, but I wanted to check just in case. And, they had a scale.

On Thursday, I weighed in at 8 pounds less than what I had guessed as my starting weight. I know what I weighed last time I went to the doctor, on April 12th, and I had actually guessed 5 pounds more than that. Considering that I had totally picked the wrong time of the month to start a diet, I can understand why I had guessed what I did.

Last Sunday, after I signed up on eDiets, MRF had come to Dallas and went spent the day shopping (and yes, I'm an idiot and forgot to buy a scale at Target). I did get 5 new shirts for work, a pair of shorts and two pairs of capris. I wore the black capris to work today and I could tell that they were not as tight as they were when I bought them. If they had fit this way last week, I probably would have tried on the next smaller size before shelling out the dough.

Since I know what I weighed on April 12th and on April 25th, I am going to use those numbers to adjust my "pounds to go" and "pounds lost this week" and I am going TOMORROW after work to buy a scale.

So, my what I am hereby claiming as my "official" stats for the week of April 22 - April 28 are: 3 pounds lost, 78 pounds to go.

Way to go! Even though it kind of seems like a waste of money, it's nice to find the pants you just bought are getting too loose already! :)

I participated, as you already know. :)
