Um...ok. That's just...weird.

So, in the bathroom a few minutes ago, I looked in the mirror, and just..paused for a bit. Face looked different.

So, pulled out the scale, not remembering the last time I'd looked at one (It's been at least 2 weeks), and scale has me at 197.

WTFBBQ?

Stepped off scale, moved it a few feet in a different direction, and tried again.

197.

Somehow, I've managed to hit my goal, bypass it, without knowing it.

Need to check on another scale eventually, but as of this moment? I'm past my target...

COngrats. I know I'd be thrilled with 197.

Well, the whole saga starts in late 2004, when I was 240, and Chol was 296 or so, and they threatened me with meds...talked em into letting me have some time, and in 3 months, managed to drop 30 lbs (Calorie counting, and switching to Diet coke, then coke Splenda, then Coke Zero), and cut the chol by more than half. The goal for the last few months has been to hit 199...suffice to say, Drs were happy with me.

So, yeah, am quite happy at this moment in time.

Wow. That is NOT what happens to me when I fail to pay attention to my weight. Obviously you've built in exactly the right habits, even with all the stress. That's friggin' amazing. Bravo.

Yeah. that's not what happens to me either... Usually the scale starts malfunctioning and reporting my weight as higher then I think it should be... :P

Yeah, well, this evening, it's got me at 199.5, but I'm still thinking that's a bit better.

And yes, I'm well aware of what stress does. Now we'll see if I manage to stay here, or if the stress level kicks down a notch. Though, I still want to check another scale.
