First weigh in nerves!!

My first real weigh-in is tomorrow morning (it is for the Biggest Loser through my Church) and I am so scared. You see I did something the other day ( and everyone who is more experienced I give you my FULL permission to laugh at me for this) that was beyond stupid I realize now LOL. You see I couldn't wait to see how much weight I lost so I got access to the scale that I weighed in on last Sunday and couldn't help but see my progress. Well I was about to throw in the towel for it said that I GAINED two pounds. I stay under goal all the time and work out about two hours a day so how on earth could I have gained. Then as I was walking a few things came to mind. 1) I have been struggling to get my sodium below goal for I am usually blowing that out of the water [though I think I am getting it under control now] 2) I was wearing my shoes [I know for a fact weigh a pound for I weighed them before] 3) I was wearing a jacket that had my keys, phone, mp3 player and a couple of other things in it 4) I had just eaten lunch [sandwich and jello fruit cup] and finally 5) I was wearing sweats not the shorts that I wore for the weigh in. So all of those factors I am hoping are what put on those two pounds. But tomorrow I am scared to death to still see those two pounds being there even with all of those or at least most of those factors gone or changed [sodium]. So yeah I am nervous about my weigh in.

Mine is to loose 50 pounds by April 1st. Ok that might a bit hard but I am trying. I want at least 40 gone by then though for if I can lose that 40 then I win a bet with my kid and he will have to pay up big LOL.

We are on the same "Cruise Ship" Natz, lol! My first weigh-in is tomorrow and I'm definitely feeling a bit anxious about it. I figure any weight loss (no matter big or small) is in the right direction. Wishing you a move in the loss direction (-: -Dawn-

Oh me too! I always feel so nervous, no matter how good I think I've been during the week! The most improtant thing to remember is that we're doing this to get healthy and that it's always going to be a learning experience. We need to listen ot our bodies and do what we can to stay on track.

I've been at this healthy eating / exercising since last summer and still get nervous every weigh in. Don't think it will ever change. I know my shape is completely changing but I'm also watching my BMI as I want to get it lower.

Good luck for your first weigh in.
