Following on from my post on Wednesday, I now believe that my weight was wrong, it should have been 13.9. I think the helper read it wrong. Which of course means that I put on 4lbs rather than one.
The big shocker though, came last night when I stepped on the scales at home. I’m heavier at the weekend usually, but I was not at all impressed to see the scales reading 13.12. That is terrible!!
To get this into perspective, I started out at 14.7 and lost half a stone before joining a weightwatchers meeting. That was two years ago and the first weight on my card reads 13.13.5.
Yesterday, I was 13.12.
Two years of weightwatchers, and I have a 1.5lbs loss to show for it? This really, really isn’t at all good.
I know that only one person can change things. And that’s me. I know that I can make excuses, and I know that I can excuse myself because of my ME and low exercise tolerance. But I also know that, in spite of my challenges, I can make a difference to my weight.
I know that I can’t blame my over-eating on my ME, my mood or my lack of exercise. Sure, that’s WHY I overeat, but overeating is something I CAN change. I can’t change the fact that I have a disability, I can’t change the fact that I have challenges to face, but I CAN change what I eat. And I CAN change how much I eat, and when I eat.
