I'm loving the Scale Gods

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket That's what I was saying this morning when the scale showed another loss. Not a small loss but a pretty BIG loss for me. I lost 1.5 pounds from just yesterday. I'm in shock ... I had to weigh myself 4 more times just to make for sure I wasn't just seeing things. I even had the whole family confirm it so I knew I wasn't losing my mind.

 

My son, although happy about the loss seemed to be a little sad. Ya see, we have this challenge between the two of us. If he loses more weight then me in a weeks time them I will give him a dollar, if I lose more than him then he has to do a chore for me. Well, he has been winning because the scale God wasn't my bestest friend at the time. According to my scale I have lost 2.5 pounds but according to the scale that he & I use I'm down 3.4 pounds. I told him if he expects to win ever again he better step up his game cause I'm on the hot tamale train & I'm not getting off until I hit my goal of 150.

  3. Congrats on your success, Emmi!  Your menus look really good, really simple, and I like all the fruits and vegies.  Since you're doing so well I may just follow your menus so I can ride the hot tamale train, too!  LOL!  -Becky
