That scale. Blessing and Curse.
It can be very discouraging when you suddenly jump up 3 Lbs and then .5 the next day. It doesn't really mater to my lizard brain that I dropped 21 LBS in 17 days. A lot of that was water weight due to a medication change. I'm sure the upswing was just my body adding some water weight/waste weight back and it will start to…

I know I should just get out there and enjoy it on my own. There’s a pool about 15 minutes away from me and I’ve gone with friends during the…
