13: I can't believe it!

The reason I can't believe it is because it's probably not true, but

I'VE LOST 6 POUNDS!!

We have an old school scale where the little needle points to the one, and when I get on it the needle swings around and hits 290, which is only 10 points to the other side of the one.

I went to Target to buy a digital scale, and got one that would be accurate to 0.3 pounds, thinking that this weight loss thing will take time and I'll wanna see every bit of it. Soooo, I got on it and it said 184 pounds. I stepped off, stepped back on, and it still said 184. so of course I thought "well, this is a different scale you know!" So I walked back to old school scale, where the needle only swung around to right in front of the 185. OH MY WORD!

I am astounded! I wasn't trying to diet, but I did keep mind better since I was trying to write down everything I ate.

I also went to the gym, twice! On Wednesday all I did was walk a 24 minute mile on the treadmill and go home, Thursday I walked a 21 minute mile, did some rowing machine, did some biceps weight machine, and then did stationary bike until I was no longer out of breath.

Thursday's little jaunt is the reason why I was only able to stand being at work for 2 hours today. I think I pulled a groin muscle, and man it hurts. I can't believe I injured myself just walking!

I have a gift certificate to massage envy, so my plan of action is to get up in a timely manner tomorrow and get the massage, and tell them to please fix that bit. I am kinda nervous about it because I don't really want anybody to see all my flab, but whatever, I am too going and it will be fantastic. I should be right as rain by Sunday, and in the event that I do not oversleep, I may go to the yoga class at the gym. I am paying through my neck for this gym, and this time around I am going to get my money's worth.
