#176 Facing the Scale

• Today is weigh in....Thursday's aren't my favorite because of weighing in. I don't know why I get so nervous about it.  I guess it is really hard to face that scale. I know what I did this week. I thought I was pretty good, but who knows?
• I am so close to my 40 pound weight loss goal. I know I will be disappointed in myself if I don't reach it. If I look at the positive side then I know I have done everything possible to achieve that goal. But even if I don't make my 40 pound weight loss, I will be close and there will be a new photo cause of course during Thanksgiving we take family photos.
• I have a weigh in outfit I pretty much wear every Thursday. It is just a simple black cotton dress I got from Target 2 years ago. I change it up every week wearing a different cardigan. Thank God that I can shrink in the dryer. Today with the chill in the air I had to add tights and a thicker cardigan. So I guess when I get to the meeting I will be going straight for the bathroom to take some layers off. Lol
• Today is the 3rd I wear my hair down in a row; this is a new record.
• I can't seem to get back to reading. Maybe this weekend I will pick up a book and get back to it.
• I have a little over a week for my 5K; The Color Run. I am so excited and I know it will be so much fun. (Now I know I have changed my mindset. If you would have asked me a 2 years ago that I would be excited for a 5k, I wouldn't have believed it.) I trained a little differently. Instead of walking/running on a treadmill (Yuk!), I have been focused on Zumba. I burn a hell of a lot more calories and it is so much more fun.
• Yesterday I bought my ticket to Breaking Dawn Part 2....I can't wait and I am so excited.
