Accidental weigh-in

[BijouHope]

Despite intending not to weigh myself again until 8th July (which would be my second official weigh-in, at two days short of eight weeks on Exante), I was in the bathroom this morning, thinking about how it is exactly five weeks since I started the diet. And before I had time to wake up and stop myself, I was on the scales. As if it were some sort of reflex. Anyway, I suppose it is good news, in that I have lost 3 lbs since my last official weigh-in nine days ago, making 20 lbs in total in five weeks. Not a spectacular loss by the standards of this forum, but I suppose it's not too shabby either. At least it's going in the right direction, even though continuing at that rate will mean losing much less than the hoped-for stone a month for TS 100%.

I'm still trying to work out why I weighed myself, though! I didn't even think about doing it -- just climbed on the scales and saw the result before I realised what I was doing. Old habits, eh? Already, I find myself fretting that today's reading means that I've lost any hope of hitting the next stone threshold on my next planned weigh-in. Interim weighing is bad for my sanity!

You'll be fine! It's so easy to do, sometimes we do things by rote. At least you know you're heading in the right direction. Just lock away the scales now - out of sight, out of mind!!

We're on a similar path Bijou, I lost 21lbs in six weeks, so quite similar to your losses. We'll both get there, maybe not as fast as we'd like but we will. I think we long to weigh in cos we so desperately want to see the evidence in black and white, cos I don't know about you but I still can't believe I've lost an ounce! I'm in smaller clothes but my eyes just don't see a thinner me! I have to get my hubby to hide the scales cos I just can't control myself. I'm not weighing in til the end of the month, it'll be 17 days and I have absolutely no idea how much I will have lost! Terrifying!
