Really, Disappointment?

Weight: 7.5 lbs lighter
Listening to: Some random, horrible movie
Mood: Mellow

This past Friday meant another meeting of the fats. Since I had lost 5 lbs the week before, I set myself up in my mind to lose another 5. Although, I did find myself begging God to give me just one pound. When I stepped on the scale of torture, I discovered I lost another 2.6 lbs.! This is where I should have felt excitement. Strangely enough, I felt disappointment. I had set myself up to lose another 5 lbs, when realistically you should expect 2 - 3 lbs a week as success.

It was great losing the five in one week, but it definitely set up an expectation in my head. Hopefully I'll know better in the future.

In any case, I'm back to elevating and icing my knee AGAIN 'cause I got too confident on it earlier today. Good lawrd this is beginning to get obnoxious.

Oh, and I also blew all of my extra points for the week on dinner with Brian . . . . and I loved every minute of it!
