Carbonation!!! I feel bloated a lil today!!! But I relaxed and enjoyed my evening!! Already did a bike ride this morning and yoga and calisthenics!!! Now I'm starving and ready to clean my dirty house!!!

The scale can be discouraging for some and inspiring for others.

I find that when I weigh myself and lose about 5 pounds I get scared and then start gaining weight on purpose. Seeing that I am actually losing weight scares me for some reason and I will sabotage myself. So I generally do not weigh myself unless I am in a really balanced frame of mind.

Does anyone else feel afraid when they see the numbers on the scale going down?

My husband and I are not on the same page. It's getting to me. When I bought him the shed.....I had expected him to motivate. Really go after his dream!! He has tools a place to work of his own all the things he said he needed. Still he stays in bed till 11 everyday and hasn't produced but a hand full of items. I know it's hard to build a business.....I did it while fighting him!!! Now that the truck is broke down he has done even less with more time on his hands while I work like crazy to get the parts and tools to fix the truck!!! He lashes out with rude comments and insults!!! We haven't touched hugged or kissed in over a week!!! It's BS!!!! I'm so over this feeling.....lonely!!!this wife is down and out today!!! Gonna ride the bike tonight and do yoga later!! Trying to motivate even though I'm sad!!!

I'm old school. This hangs over my desk. I've recorded for years. I like to go back sometimes and see how I'm doing at holding steady. As you can see by the times I have a serious problem with what time I get up in the morning. I'm working on that, too.

I have had so many people say not to watch the scale, but I weigh daily. Weight has always been an issue, but when I dont watch the scale, I gain. Constant monitoring helps me celebrate to giid days and stay focused on bad ones. Currently,
I need to lose 74 pounds more after I have lost 12.4 in the last 3 weeks. I was due for a plateau. Just hoping I can pwer through and not get discouraged.

Alright y'all, this is gonna be super hard for me!! My whole life, my weight has effected me. My friends and family were my worst critics "chunkapunk" and "fat girl" were the names they gave me. Of course they didn't mean to hurt me, but it did. When I met my now husband I was 256lbs within a year of his positive love I had lost 100lbs. Had a baby gained it all back plus 25lbs!! Lost it within a year!!! Kept it off for 3 years oh yeah!! Then had another baby!! 263 when she was born!! Took me 6 years to get to 205. Last summer I turned up the heat and lost 35!! Gained 9 back... currently 177.2!! I cringe Everytime I step on the scale. So to help my anxiety and insecurities I am gonna post a pic of the scale everyday whether I like what it says or not!!! I know that we all fluctuate 5-10lbs daily.....but I need to get over this insecurity!!! I believe this will help!!! Feel free to post pics of your daily weigh in as well!! We can embark on an inner and outer journey together!!! 💝

Yea, the scale fluctuates daily. Stop looking at the scale daily.
You may want to check it weekly or monthly

Have you seen my mental transformation through this process???? This is really working for me!! I conquered the fear of the scale by getting on it!!! I wouldn't even own a scale the first two times I lost weight!! Y'all I have overcome so much weighing myself daily!!! Before I weigh myself make progress then binge two days cause I lost some!! Gain it back then lose it again!!! Not now!! I am learning what our body does daily and it is teaching me so much!!! This has healed the scars of my family calling me fat....my husband too!!! Y'all sometimes you gotta punch the fear in the face not avoid it!!! Realizing that my success has nothing to do with the number on the scale and everything to do with healing my mind and soul .......that's the game changer!!! Read the rest of the story!!!! This journey has been amazing and I'm truly thankful for what I'm learning and achieving!!!
