I gained a pound...

So why is that a success story??

Because I'm not freaking out! Ya, so my scale says that I've gained a pound, but it's my 31st day, and my scale can suck it.

A couple things I've learned.....weight loss isn't linear, and there's lot of factors for why my scale might be up today (because I know I haven't actually gained a pound of fat lol), but I know I have done well and this is not discouraging me at all! Yay!

To my dear scale I say "Don't talk to me. You're stupid. I am awesome." :laugh:

    Such a refreshing attitude. Usually a 1 pound gain leads to 1 of dozens of posts seen every day about how "I'm doing everything right why am I not losing?!!?"

    Keep up the great work! So much of this process is psychological.
