Naked Saturday: 300.4 (-54.2)

Celebrating: Crossing over from BMI’s “Severly Obese” into just “Obese.” Yay!
Grateful for: I wrote earlier about an increase in [otherwise healthy] carbs and my trepidation over weight fluctuations this week. Well, the mystery seems to have been solved when I experienced another ovarian cyst rupture yesterday at work. Thankfully, this one was only about half as severe and debilitating as the one linked above, and that is what I’m grateful for this week — that I was able to ride it out with my office door locked, get home safely, and rest. (And, heck. Maybe once my body re-absorbs the rest of the cyst fluid, I will have crossed into the two-hundreds!)
Starting weight: 354.6 pounds
Last week: 301.6
This week: 300.4
Change this week: -0.8
Total change: -54.2
Next milestone: 55 pounds gone
This week’s mantra: I’m too close to ease up! TIME TO CROSS 300!

Sorry to hear about the cyst, glad it was a milder one. I hope you feel better soon and maybe you’ll see that magic number next week.

Also so sorry about the cyst, but glad you suffered through it okay. Also sorry that I’ve been quiet around these parts. I’ve been reading, but not commenting.
You’ve really been inspiring me, Mal.
This week’s mantra: be more like Mal!
p.s. funny how little medical emergencies quickly fall into our weight loss train of thought. I’m going to have to get my gall bladder removed, and I thought to myself that maybe a gall bladder full of stones would show a decrease on the scale once it’s been removed. Ha!
