Naked Saturday: 301.2 (-53.4)
September 13th, 2008 at 6:55 am (Physical, Progress, Weigh-ins)
Celebrating: Living in an era of modern medicine where simple lab work, blood draws, and tests can begin to yield answers when you’re not well.
Grateful for: Let’s not anyone be shocked that my weight is up this week. In addition to everything else going on, I got my period this morning. So, today I’m grateful for perspective. After all, aren’t I the one always preaching about the power of perception? Three weeks ago, I would have been squealing with delight at these numbers. And that’s what I’m grateful for. Knowing that I have the power to put a positive spin on this. Knowing not to let a negative perspective smash my forward momentum. And, so, I am grateful to have a body, to be making peace with it, and to have a good doctor and amazing health insurance.
Starting weight: 354.6 pounds
Last week: 296.8
This week: 301.2
Change this week: +4.4
Total change: -53.4
Next milestone: 60 pounds gone (since I already reached 55 pounds gone)
This week’s mantra: Trust the doctors to figure things out, trust the universe to give you strength, trust your body to respond as you GET BACK TO BASICS.

Good news on the cholesterol/triglicerides. Hope they can figure out what’s causing you all the pain. I bet the scale numbers will go back down when you’re feeling better.

Yes, periods ALWAYS pack on the weight. And a gain this week just means there’s gonna be one hella big loss next week. Let’s all get giddy in anticipation!!
