Your brain is weird?

Feb 12, 2010

I have seen the problem with weighing yourself everyday recently. I am at 276 right now down basically 95 lbs. in three and a half months. The results are unbelievable. It has changed everything for me in such a short time. But from the beginning I refused to weigh myself everyday or every couple of days. But recently I have started to weigh myself more and I find myself complaining to myself that I am not losing fast enough. But I go back to the health tracker and I see that I have lost ten more pounds the last two weeks but it seems like so much less. How ridiculous is that? I looked and I lost 14 pounds in three weeks in November and I am still losing at that rate of 15lbs a month. So maybe if I don't step on the scale so much I can get back to some peace in my mind. That is why the brain is weird as the old feelings and thoughts come up about food and it drives me crazy to have them come up when everything is going so well otherwise. But I seem to have much more control over not eating the junk but the urges still rear their ugly heads. Really I don't think about candy or chips as the few I have tried just don't sit well with me. Not sick but an oogie feeling.  I am trying to recognize when I am in one of those modes and doing something physically rewarding to keep them at bay. It is tough but a necessary part of this life changing process because it ain't all physical, you have to do the mental change also and that may be the hardest part.
