So for the last month I went up 4 pounds and then took a month to get down to 191 where I was when my weight shot up. Now the last week I have seen 188,189 and 190 on the scale different mornings,. Well as of today I had to ask for smaller pants in my work uniform as the waist and butt where clearly starting to hang all of the sudden even though the DAMN scale is not giving me any encouragement. While it feels good to know my pants got too big, it is till a mind mess to deal with the numbers on the scale.

It is so strange how that works! When I go through little stalls, it seems like my clothes keep getting bigger, too. You are doing so great!!! You will get there, I know it.

Scales mess with my mind all the time. Last Wednesday I was 304.4 at the gym my wife and I are joining but today at my Dr. their scale says 305.2. My last post-op Dr. appt was right after reg Dr. and there was 3lbs diff between their scales. So I am not going to put a TON of faith in scales in this journey or I will choose one scale and use it to judge.

I tell the nurse when I go to the doc I have to weigh in room one! I will even wait for that room to open. I hate to use a scale that says I gained! I have found they are all different.
