Today is Day 55 of Insanity... it's supposed to be a day off (how do I NOT see these coming), but I think I might do the Max Interval Plyo today, instead. Maybe I'll wait and take the day off on the weekend. That might be nice.

I HATE the scale. Still. This is ridiculous. Had a really nice calorie deficit yesterday, nearly half a pound and STILL my weight is up (two pounds!) from my posted (dehydrated) weight. Math doesn't work well for me. My weight is what it was on the 13th, 10 days ago, and doing the math I should be down 3 1/3 pounds. This sucks. I had two high calorie days in that time (but still an overall deficit for the day)... it makes NO sense. I should be at 128.8...whatever...at least under the 130 mark. Grrr.... I'm SO frustrated with this stuff! Stressing over little stuff, that doesn't help. And stressing over the SCALE is just stupid. Klannoye and I were discussing how ridiculous it is that a good day on the scale equals a GOOD GOOD day, flying high... feeling awesome, but those days when the scale shows an increase, or just NOT what is expected (EARNED, damnit!) then we're DOWN DOWN DOWN. Silly. Stupid. It's a scale. Neither one of us is even in an unhealthy weight range, so it's not like it affects our HEALTH.

Okay... I MUST stop this silliness. I'll do what I've been doing for nearly nine straight months now (on the 29th) - just keep plugging away, watch what I eat, record everything, exercise, be positive. The hard part of this is... I'm DOING what I'm supposed to be doing, and yet the math STILL doesn't make sense. As I'm "so fond" of saying, It IS what it IS. *sigh*

On a more pleasant note - harvest moon last night was pretty. I didn't see it rising from the horizon though, I heard it was beautiful and orange. Somehow missed that, must have been way before the sun actually set? And the evening was pleasant. Couldn't quite open the windows... went to bed at midnight and it was still pretty warm out for that. Soon...

Okay, going to "gear up" for my date with Shaun T (knee braces, back brace - at least I've lost the ankle brace!) and just get busy. Maybe I'll clean the upstairs today, burn a lot MORE calories!

Have a great day, buddies!

Klannoye... as I sit here, drinking my NINTH glass of water of the day, trying to quell that gnawing ache in the pit of my stomach... what is it? Oh YEAH! HUNGER. So I check my journal and, though filled with LOVE and SUPPORT (an infinite thank you to YOU for both)...as much as I feel the love... I'm thinking MEXICAN FOOD! AND a damn Margarita to wash it down with. NO, wait... one while we're waiting for dinner, then with dinner, and you know you can't rush a Mexican dinner, might as well sit and have a couple more, right? Way to go! :D Okay, scale strike? Hmmmm... no, not yet. Because, as YOU pointed out...ONE more time! Like a crack addict!!! lol.... Anyway, thanks for being on my side... Oh, side note? Extra sugar free gum does NOT take away the desire for FOOD! :D...

I saw the moon last night, it was stunning. Insofar as the scale is concerned, on our way down it seems that almost everyone is obsessed with the readings. I understand that with the thyroid complications that you are dealing with, it must be particularly hard on you. However, give thanks that these are the "problems" that are occupying your consciousness at the present time. :-). Just write the number down, look at the chart and move on. I know that this doesn't help much though. FWIW, I think you are doing great.

So true, Info... I can imagine a million things that could be worse than worrying about a number on a scale. Thanks for helping put it back into perspective :) And thanks.

RWL, it'll come!! Just keep doing what you are doing, and it'll come!! It is so frustrating when you work so hard and the scale gremlin steals your joy, by rigging the numbers!!! Keep up the great work!! :D Hope that you had a marvelous day!

RWL, there are much worse things in life than seeing 130 on the scale. Hey, you are only 5 lbs from your goal.... How about celebrating that! Think about that beautiful harvest moon you witnessed and be grateful you were able to!!

Thanks, ctlss... I know you've dealt with that gremlin for quite a while. Unfortunately, I let that get to me and had quite the food fest last night. Nothing amazing like enchiladas or margaritas! More like an oganic "healthy" bar, more fruit, more cereal... just the out-of-control stuff that I hate and that scares me. And HealthyBabs...so true, many, MANY things worse than seeing 130+ on that scale. I think what I was trying to convey and failed at doing so, is the frustration I feel "doing everything right", working really hard at this Insanity program and trying to stick to a reasonably healthy eating plan AND still not seeing the results. Not really, I guess, the actual number as much as that number not dropping as expected or "earned" according to all calculations. Does that make any sense?? :)

Your comment about math...see I hate math so I've been avoiding it and the scale past couple of days. Grr! It will happen RWL. Maybe your body is happy with the 130 and gonna hang on to it for a bit. :) I'm sure you'll break through the plateau soon, you're doing great with workouts and eating. It WILL happen!
