Well, I think it's a bad idea for me to step on the scales the morning after my "cheat" day. I stayed at 164.5 for 5 days straight, and after endulging in a (and I reallly did enjoy it) juicy hamburger and a few fries and then some late night snacking (I really should have left that out)...my 3-lb swing scale swung 3 lbs in the wrong direction.

Oh well. I'm back on track today, and after I recover from all the salt I had yesterday and get back with the program, I half expect the scale to swing 3 lbs in one day back down again at some point this week.

My burger indulgence coincided with having dinner w/ my brother and his wife and their two kids who were in town for the afternoon/evening. My brother hasn't seen me in a couple of months, and he said, "You look GREAT, Sis!"

So, silly scale, take that. My brother thinks I'm looking great, and so does my sister-in-law, and my pants that I couldn't get into a few months ago are loose on me today. And I'm on top of this eating thing, and that number is gonna go back down before too long.

I tell you what, hearing someone comment about my weight loss ain't ever gonna get old! The after-school caregiver where my youngest two go to school said something to me this afternoon. When I walked in, she said something about me losing a lot of weight. "What are you doing?" (Funny, I'm noticing that I'm getting that question a LOT when people comment about my weight loss.) I just said, "I'm not eating as much as I used to!" Which is true!

But the best comment I've received in the last month or so came from my husband. Now, I've been on this weight-loss trip before. And, as nice and as wonderful as my DH is, I must say that he's never been particularly *helpful* or super-supportive of me in my efforts. I don't mean that he tries to sabotage my efforts. And it isn't that he is mean or has *ever* said anything about my "fluffiness" that has piled on since we were married 21 years ago. I just don't think he knows *how* to encourage me. Maybe I need to figure out what that would look like and sound like and ask him to do; maybe that would help.

My frustration has been that, if I'm ever discussing dietary changes or what I'm doing, he will (instead of nodding and just saying, "you're right, you're so right"), he will talk about what he thinks he knows about. Which doesn't always apply to me, my specific health needs, or what works for me and what doesn't work for me.

He'll say, "I think the most important thing is moderation." "I think that air conditioning is the reason people are overweight these days." "I was so busy at work yesterday, I missed lunch; I think I lost 5 lbs."

So, it's kind of sad that I have resigned myself to the fact that...I just don't discuss my daily and by-meal successes or challenges with him. It's easier if I don't start the conversation, because (poor guy), I'll just end up getting mad at him by something he'll say. Anyway, I was just thinking to myself the other day, "Gee, self. I haven't been this weight, oh, in YEARS. Like, at least 2 or 3 pregnancies ago. And people are noticing. Sigh. Sure would be nice if my *husband* would notice. And say something."

And then, it happened. He has noticed. His comment was short, brief, and to the point, but he's a man of few words. He just gave me a totally unsolicited comment, "I can tell that you've really lost weight."

Yes. Yes, I have. Thank you for noticing and acknowledging my efforts, DH! :)

Still hanging at 164.5, but I know my fruity scale only moves in 2-3 lb. increments, all at once. But I think I can do this! I'm just gonna keep on keepin' on.

Well, my not-so-good digital scale that only ways in 1/2 pound increments and which only tends to move in about 3-lb swings (must not be very sensitive) finally moved down again! I doubt I actually lost 3 lbs since just yesterday, but at least the scale moved again, and it's lower than it has ever been (in years). The main thing is that I'm trending downwards!
