Scale says: TILT 6/2/10

Jun 29, 2010

Okay, okay...it doesn't. It does say 'ERR' though. Gross. I bought that scale when I was around 385. It worked then. I'm disappointed. That was a couple years ago. I'm determined to be able to read my weight on that by August 1. I know it's like only 12 pounds, but I've honestly never lost weight before, so 12 pounds is HUGE.

That brings me to my plan I started today. Last night, at Walmart, I bought 2-6 packs of Slim Fast (chocolate and strawberry varieties). I never had them before, but I remembered commercials saying that you were supposed to replace breakfast and lunch with the shakes and eat a reasonable meal.

This morning I woke up and prayed I could make it. When I got to work I opened up a strawberry shake and was blown away with how yummy it was. I sipped on it until around 1. At 2, I took my lunch and continued drinking that until around 4. I wasn't thinking about dinner at all! Then it dawned on me--tonight was my late night at work (between 1-1.5 hours longer than normal). Once I thought that, dinner was all I could think about. I wonder if I'm the only person out there who is always thinking about what I'm going to eat next?

A week ago tomorrow, I visited my surgeon. Going in to this thing, I thought that I was a "mindless eater," but after the realization that I was fantasizing about my next meal, I think there is more to my issues than what I thought! Uh oh!
