I made it - I am officially in "One"derland

Jul 08, 2009

Ok, for weeks I was unable to get my scale to move - oh my, my first stall!  Like everyone else that hits their first stall, I was completely frustrated.  I continued to go to the gym, eat my required protein, drink my required water, etc.  But nothing.

Then I went away for a long weekend at Lake Winnipesaukee for the July 4th holiday.  I don't know how or when it happened, but it did - I slipped into Onederland.  Maybe it was because I wasn't eating according to schedule - I didn't miss any meals, they just weren't spaced out right;  or maybe it was because I was eating different foods than usual;  or maybe it was just the rain and the air in the mountains.  Who knows?  I know I don't.

I weighed myself as soon as I got home home New Hampshire - not the best time weigh in, late in the afternoon with sneakers on, but I just needed to know if I did any damage over the weekend.  Lo and behold, my scale shows me at 198.5 lbs!  This can't be right.  I have been stuck at 207/208 for about 4 weeks.  I could be seeing things as I'm tired from the drive, so I'll wait until tomorrow to check my weight again.  I go to bed happy thinking "Thank goodness - I didn't gain anything."

It's Tuesday, July 8th - the first thing I do is go weigh myself.  It reads "198.5" - I jump off the scale and go grab my camera.  I need to document this momentous occasion!  My husband is still sleeping and I have no one to share my happy news :(
It's ok, I'll get over it.

I weighed myself again this morning (Wednesday, July 9) and I'm now down to 196 -wooo hooo!  I am a very happy women right now.
