Hi all
Well I did it... went back to group tonight.. all started well, my consultant was really pleased to see me back, said how great I looked etc etc etc.. anyhoo handed over my tenner stood in line and then the moment came. I kicked off my flip flops cos you know how much they weigh!!! And then it happened. The blinking scales showed 13 stone and 11 pounds. What? Eh? How? Flipping heck I thought (censored version) The scales at group showed me 7 pounds HEAVIER than the scales Ive been using for the last 8 weeks. I felt my heart sink and tears pricked my eyes . I really just wanted to pick up my bag and come home and eat crap. But I stayed for Image Therapy and told myself .. " Does it matter how many stones and lbs any scales say to me?"
Now the thing is I have lost a stone according to Boots scales and therefore I have still lost a stone!!
So now I am just going to count the pounds lost.. not look at the actual weight I am.
I wanted to lose 3 stone .. 1 down 2 to go.
I want to be in smaller sized clothes and look good naked. I am not going to be held back by the scales!!!
