Weigh-In with New Scales

So...I can't guarantee accuracy, but I am pleased to report that my weight this morning with my new scales shows a loss!!

Last week my weigh-in was 197.9 at the gym. I no longer have my membership so yesterday I went shopping and bought myself a new scale. I asked the girls over at the 'hood what they recommended and didn't really get a definite "gotta get this one!" so I went to Target and bought this one.

This morning my weigh-in was 196.0!!! Woohooo!! I haven't seen that number show up on my scales in quiet some time!! That only leaves me with 1/2 pound to get to my 30 pounds loss goal. Of course, my real goal is to weigh 142 so I still have a long way to go, but each pound is another one closer to that ultimate goal.

I can't really credit it to my "good eating habits" this week, because there weren't a whole lot of them. I can't really credit it to drinking plenty of water this week either, because there were a couple of days I probably didn't even drink 30 ounces of water the whole day. There have been several days this week that I DID NOT eat even though I "felt" hungry. However, there were a couple of times that I DID eat when I wasn't hungry.There were even several nights I didn't get my exercising done, either.

So, I guess bottom line is I didn't blow it as much as I thought I had or these scales are off from the ones at the gym. I'm going to pretend that I didn't blow it!! Please don't burst my over-inflated bubble, k??
