Okay, it isn't quite mid week, but two days after weigh in, I am up two pounds. Yikes. I ate quite a few peanut M&M's last night while playing Bunco. At least this mornings scale reading kept me from partaking in all the goodies at the brunch. I haven't even eaten one of the yummy mini cupcakes I made. I did however, get into the peanut M&M's this afternoon. Then I told my hubby to eat the rest. Maybe I should check on that. Or maybe not. I need to really work on being good the rest of the week. I do not want to lose my overweight status! I have also noticed that I have gotten lazy with the whole "bites, licks and tastes" thing. I need to stop that and make sure I record every point. Which doesn't happen when I just have a bite here or a taste there.
Of course I am very happy with my weight loss so far. It does present a little issue though. It draws attention to me. For the most part it is great attention. Even though I am not good at receiving compliments. I have been trying to just say thank you and not disqualify the compliment, like "thanks, I'm not doing good tonight though". Don't get me wrong, I love the compliments. I do find it weird when people who haven't seen me in awhile ask if I have lost weight. I usually answer, yes, I have lost 74 pounds, or whatever the number is at the time. I mean really? Maybe I should try saying no next time. There are a lot of people that don't say anything. Which is especially weird when one person gets all excited, going on about how great I look, etc., and the person with them stares at me like, what are you talking about? Then there are the "your face looks so different" comments. Not really sure what to make of those. To quote Rachel on Friends, "good different?" I get it, I still have a ways to go. I know I am still fat. Even though I get called "skinny" all the time. Commence the weird stares from onlookers. IT is pretty funny.
