Confessions of a Fat Girl Part 5

I CHEATED! Yes, I'll say it loud and clear. I cheated in weighing myself today rather than waiting until this Saturday which is my usual day. But let me tell you why. I did my normal weigh in this past Saturday as usual and no change one way or the other. What an UTTER disappointment. It was really hard for me to get past this but not surprising there was no change because the previous week was a little on the stressful side......one piece of news being that I need to go ahead and have surgery this month to get part of my thyroid out. Anyway, I decided after last Saturday that I HAD to reach one of my mini-goals this week. I wanted to get rid of 40 pounds. I weighed today at school and hit the mark! My exuberance cannot be described. Every 10 pounds is a mini-milestone. I could not be happier or prouder of myself. So I am tooting my own horn. I will "officially" weigh in Saturday and hopefully throw another pound in there.

On another note about this weight loss though........I said the other day that I wished I could see a difference when I looked in the mirror. I mean, there is a definite change in my clothing, however I see the same fatty staring back at me in the mirror. The person I made this remark to said, "you don't see a difference because you see yourself everyday." I said, "I need a break from myself then." hahahaha
Onto 50.............................
