Shock and Horror Weigh In

I am mad. Really mad. I worked my ass off this week, literally. I went to weigh in yesterday and I was shocked to find that I'd GAINED a 1/2 lb!!! At first I shrugged it off thinking "Oh, it's water weight, hormones etc." but then I got to thinking about it. How many freaking hormones did I have??? I should have easily dropped 2 lbs!! It makes me really mad now. I did come home and feel a bit sorry for myself and immediately went for chocolate and pretzels, but I only had a few chocolates (Hershey's Miniatures, which I gave the rest to Sue yesterday!) and instead of just binging on pretzels alone, I had them with low fat hummus for lunch. Not the best of lunches but at least I didn't full on binge. I am hoping it will all come off again next week and I'll be back on track.

The big thing that made me mad was that before I weighed in, I had at least four people at the stables tell me I'd lost loads more weight. They just saw me last Saturday so now I am having trouble believing them. I think they are just being nice. The crying wolf thing again. Does that mean I've actually put on weight or maybe I've just worn better clothes? I don't get it. Some of the people that said it aren't ones to just say things, but I am still not believing a word of it.

Dave had his wisdom tooth out yesterday and all went absolutely fine. He was only in there a few minutes and came out laughing and smiling. I was gobsmacked! I expected to have to carry him home and nurse him for days! I guess an impacted wisdom tooth is different from one that is fully grown in with just a cavity in it. He also had a fine oral surgeon too so that probably helped. I'm so glad that's over with and that he's not going to have to suffer.

Not the best of days, but not the worst either.
