Angry Why did I do that?

Yesterday I decided to buy a new scale since my other one was reading incorrectly or so I thought. I bought one sponsored by "The Biggest Loser" which is accurate up to 400lbs so the box stated. I get on the scale and OMG I have gained 5lbs! So I chalk it up to being the afternoon. I just finished a workout and I have eaten. I was so psychologically traumatized So what did I do? Yup, you guessed it, I drowned my sorrows in a sleeve of Oreo Cookies (damn those Oreos). I felt so sick and yucky after I ate them so they definately didn't have that "comfort" that binging would normally bring. So I said to myself "let's weigh ourselves first thing in the morning" NOPE still showed a 5lb gainHOW CAN I GAIN 5lbs WHEN I'VE BEEN EXERCISING EVERYDAY AND WATCHING MY FOOD INTAKE My son even said to me there is no way you could gain 5lbs, you've been eating a lot healthier and a lot less. I think you can't use digital scales.
Then I was at the gym this morning, of course giving myself a brutal workout. Even Jillian would be flabbergasted hahaha and I hear this noise as if someone is clapping. What is that sound? It is my stomache and my thighs slapping together as I run like a mad woman on the treadmill. My own body was giving me applause but in all seriousness it was embarrassing but I didn't care. Me and my self applausing body just kept on running
When I go to the nutritionist at the end of this month, I swear to God, Buddha, and any other entity that I will have a cow if I have gained. I will make her make the doc roll me into the OR that second and the surgeon will do my WLS probono LOL See I have a plan for everything Now I just have to get out of my head and NOT fall into bad habits. I was talking to a friend this morning about eating the Oreos. I said, "If I am going to be a fat chick then I am going to be a happy fat chick and eat my Oreos". The craziness of it all...... I am now done venting so you can get dressed nd go to work because I am sure I have vented that long..... Thanks for lending me your ears or in this case your eyes

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Awwwww Esha ((((HUGS))))

I can SO relate!! And not to alarm you, you will STILL have those thoughts after surgery. Thank God we can't eat as much as before! Or you can be like me and be able to tolerate EVERYTHING! I don't dump or anything on anything that I've ever eaten. Now THAT'S scary!!! Your hard work is going to pay off, I promise! Well, you know, they say that muscle weighs more than fat. Maybe that is what's happening!

Stop Beating Yourself Up Esha!!!!!

All Scales Are Completely Different So You Should Only Go By The Scale At The Nuts...

Maybe You Can Weigh In More Frequently, Say Every Week Or Two???
The Whole Month Is A Long Time To Wait...

Keep Your Chin Up Girl & Remove Your Hand From The Cookie Jar!!!!!!!!:biglaugh :

You Have Worked Out So Much Lately, I'd Have To Advice You To Increase Fresh Protein.....

Remember You Must Fuel Your Body...

Love Ya Esha.
Call Me If You Need To Talk!!!!!

Lol,

The Prob Is Not You Gaining Wt. Hun. You Probably Didnt. The Prob Is You Cant Use More Than One Scale. You Have To Stick To The Scale That You Started This Journey On. All Scales Do Read Different.

You Just Keep Fighting And Reaching For Your Goal

You are doing so great both by eating right and exercising. One mistake won't ruin all that hard work. But as for the scale, of course it was because it was the time of the day and a different scale. I NEVER step on a scale other than first thing in the morning, except at the doctors office where they don't have 5am appts and make you leave your clothes on, lol!!!
