Total weightloss to date...

There's a glitch in my head....

182.6

I keep expecting this to stop. I climb on the scale every morning thinking "I doubt it"... but then it happens. I lose a little bit more weight. The numbers keep getting lower and lower and it amazes me.

I think this is the longest period of time in which I've lost weight every single day. I'm a little amazed..... and a little scared. I think I may be having a little bit of an anxiety attack about weighing in under 180.

This isn't new. Usually when I am doing this well I end up feeling like this and then immediately do something to ruin it. It took me almost a year to get out of the 190's. I don't know if this time I am feeling anxiety about actually succeeding or if its more for the fear of self sabotage. All I know is that whatever I'm doing right now is working and I don't want it to stop. I WANT to reach my goal...

So, to keep the anxiety at bay... I'm only going to weigh myself on Monday's. I know this is working, I don't need to check my weight everyday. Maybe then I can sneak into the 170's without my mind freaking out.

I know how you feel! Everytime I see a loss, I feel good, but then I go and do something to ruin it too! I definitely think there is anxiety. Hiding behind all the weight for so long and then having it gone is life changing. Here's to Mondays! :)

Awe shoot! U n me are at the same weight again! U may just beat me to 179! I've had a couple of days of eating out and that has caused me to go up a few lbs. Boooooo! But I'm way happy for you! Make it happen girl!
