The Scale

I had to take the scale out of my bathroom cause I was driving myself nuts. When I first bought the scale I didn't know that you were supposed to weight yourself at the same time every day and that time should be in the morning . I also didn't know that clothes can add as much as 5 pounds. I was getting really frustrated cause the number on the scale was not dropping fast enough to suit me. So I have decided to only weigh myself once every two weeks and hopefully I will see a 5-10 pound difference. I just wish the weight was dropping faster. I am too impatient and I want instant results, even though it took me years to get this fat , I want the fat gone sooner than it is leaving.

I took a few pictures of myself at the beginning of the month and took pics of me after my loss and I can't see a difference. I think because I have so much fat that I won't see a difference in myself or my clothes until I have lost at least 40 pounds. I can't tell a difference in my clothes now and I wish I could. I also bought some hand weights yesterday to try and tone my arms. I know that I will need to incorporate some strength training and toning to help with the extra skin I will have. I think I will join a gym at that time as I think a trainer would be better able to help me get firm .

Also I wonder if I will lose my cellulite when I finally reach a significant loss. I hope I do cause I hate the way my thighs look. Oh and my cottage cheese butt too.

    I just stumbled upon your blog and I hope you don't mind that I am following you. I've recently started on a weight loss plan and it's nice to hear about other people dealing with similar situations.

    I'm looking forward to watching your transformation!
