Today is the first day of the rest of my life! Definately cliche but totally fitting. Everyday I step on the scale staring and praying that the number will go down. Last night I stood in front of the mirror and put on the same bathing suit I bought a few weeks ago. To my suprise it looked great, better then it had. How weird because my weight barely went down! I refused to accept this and went to sleep.
This morning I woke up and went to the gym; I did a half hour on the treadmill and came home. I put on the capri's I bought a few weeks ago, that I was dying to fit into. They fit comfortably and my weight still hasn't changed. I'm finally realising that the number doesn't have to be your prison, toning is going to add muscle and burn fat which might flucuate the numbers on the scale. So even though those jeans from high school aren't comfortable they still fit. And in high school I didn't have an @$$, who want's that? lol!
I changed my goal to 127. Two more pounds, not hard at all. The hardest part is remembering that I have to exercise and eat well for life and that's what I'll be working on starting today, the first day of the rest of my life.

YAY! i love this! i am a slave to the scale, but what's more important is how you feel and how you look in your clothes/ how comfortable you are with your body. it's also about nutrition- we have to remember that we have one body and we have to treat it right- like you said "remembering that I have to exercise and eat well for life"
you're so close to your number goal which is great! it's a good reminder though that you're the only one that sees the number, everyone else just sees the body- so if you look banging in that bathing suit at 129, so be it!

I know about that scale nonsense. I am a total slave to it as well, that's what my journal is about today, too! Exciting that things you purchased now fit better than ever! You are doing wonderful! A complete turn around from journals earlier in the week!

Why are women (and at times men!) a slave to the scale? No matter how hard I try, that nightly number still matters to me! It affects how I feel about myself for the rest of the night and most of the next day. 1000 people could tell me I look skinny, but again, like allicat said, I too am a slave to the scale. Let me know if you can change your frame of mind and how you did it because I am looking to go on a journey towards health, not a number on a stupid scale!!!!
