Hold me back…

That’s right…someone better hold me back, cuz I’m gonna smash the friggin thing.

You guys, I’m doing SO good! Really I am!! I am eating awesome, stopping eating before 6:00 p.m. (actually I haven’t eaten after 4:30 p.m. for the past 3 days) drinking water, and I have been on Lippy faithfully EVERY stinking day for the last 6 days, at least 1/2 hour at a time, sometimes an hour total.

Scale moving? Nope. Damn thing. I’m trying SO hard not to lose my focus. It’s getting harder when the numbers aren’t coming down.

Now didn’t I JUST say, in the previous post what a friggin liar that dang thing is?? And here I am believing every number it’s spewing at me. If I used the ‘F’ word, I would insert that here…but I usually don’t, so I will let you imagine what I’m screaming at this moment.

Lisa, you always make me feel so incredible. At times when I’m at my worst, you always seem to know what to say to pull me back up and I want to thank you soooooo much for that. You are truly a wonderful person! And, if people really are inspired by me, they are inspired by you too because you have always kept me going. Thank you!

I started reading the Dr. Phil weight loss book again and I’m seriously considering following almost everything in there. I say almost, because I’m not sure what his diet plan is all about and I’m not ready or willing to give up core. But, he talks a lot about personal goals and the right mindset to help the weight loss journey seem easier. If you haven’t picked it up already, go to a library and rent it I recommend it for comfort reading when the scale is frozen if nothing else. Of course, I’m one of the many Dr. Phil fanatics and I’m pretty sure he ~always~ knows what he’s talking about lol.

And, onto your scale being frozen… It’s BECAUSE you’re on Lippy every day. You are replacing your fat with lean muscle tissue, which weighs more. So, even though the scale’s being the forbidden f-word… your body is probably looking and feeling better and better every day! When’s the last time you measured yourself? Your resolve to not eat late, drink your water, and work out so often is motivating! I don’t eat late MOST of the time, and I exercise 3-5 times a week… but the water thing… How on earth do you do it?
