Hi Kristen,
I have such a love-hate relationship with the scales. I had never weighed myself for about 10 years and was horrified to see that I had climbed up to 260 lbs. Since then I obsessively weighed in every day at the gym and got so discouraged by the constant up down up down - then I thought, I'll just check in once a week. Well, that didn't work out too well either because many weeks there was NO CHANGE on the scale. Then I got smart and got out the tape measure and surprise, my waist was almost 2 inches smaller, each thigh was an 1 1/2 smaller - so things were definitely shuffling around.
Now I weigh myself every day but I don't put much weight on the results. Today I was 205. 3 days ago I was 200. I KNOW I could not possible have gained 5 pounds, especially after my extreme cardio on Saturday. So I'm curious - it's approaching TOM - I have a feeling that in 2 weeks I'll be below 200, finally. It does get there. And since I still have so far to go, I'm trying to enjoy the journey and how I look and feel today. You are certain to be fitter and shaplier when you go to Florida than you would have been without Atkins and BFL. Take your transforming body on holiday and have a fabulous time! BTW, I've seen some incredibly hot ladies that weigh 200 pounds...flaunt what you've got!
Hugs,
Laura
