What I'm Reading This Week #24

Sup y'all!  Welcome to flop sweat season (and Friday!)  I hope you had a good week and stayed cool.   I had to wave the flag and pull all of the 'impatiens' I grew from seed as that is not the plant I apparently bought.  I'm still going round with the people I got them from because dammit, I want a refund.  So I had to go to the nursery and get regular impatiens to replace the ones I pulled.  It's already nicer to see actual color instead of looking out everyday and wonder WTF they're going to turn into other than some rando plant with a thick, juicy stem.  Not that the ones I got look a ton better as they too are leggy.  I don't know what the deal is with that.  I also grabbed some chives half off to plant with the zinnias to keep the aphids at bay.  Who knows if it'll actually work or not, we'll see. Now let's see: 9 Foot Exercises to Try at Home   (I've been doing these over the last week and oochie owie for my weak azz feet...

Mmm hmm - Weigh In

Down another pound.

My mind immediately says "still up one from pre-vacay gain and 2 from lowest point ever."  Sorry guys, I'm not a Pollyanna. My mind doesn't jump up and down for the loss until they're pounds I'm not re-losing and nothing is going to change my mindset on that.  So I guess don't expect any excitement from me for another 3 lbs.   Which should be another 3 weeks from now if the past 2 weeks are any indicator.  *beats head against the wall*

Between that and potential plans for today falling apart, I'm not in a great mood.  Can't wait to tell the Mr. about that one as he'll win the bet if plans do fall through.  Sigh.

EDIT:  Our plans did not fall through and we had a great time.  The weight thing still sucks though, just to clarify.  HA!

  2. You may lose your bet, but I'm pretty sure you'll manage to salvage the day somehow.

  4. I have the same attitude unfortunately. It doesn't feel like a "real" loss until it's a "new" loss! Although you have to admit, the amount of work it takes is the same, which has to count for something!

  5. I feel exactly the same way you do. I don't count it as a loss unless it's under my previous low weight.

    I hope your day turned out okay.

  7. So make this the worst thing that's going to happen today. I know you're going to find all kinds of good things to cancel out this one not-so-good thing.

    Happy Sunday!

  9. OMGosh you kill me! I have been stuck playing with the same danged 4 pounds for the longest time. At least you are losing. I would kill to be down one pound each week. You allow yourself so much that I do not allow myself, so an up for me is just futility. I don't have high cal days or a "week off." I just suck lately; stuck at a plateau. Be happy with what you have and don't focus on what you haven't achieved.

  11. Yeah, I'm kind of a glass half empty girl myself, so I understand how you feel. But I can still tell you that you are awesome for losing a pound. You don't have to believe it, but I get to say it!
