Seriously?!?! POINT EIGHT?!?!!

I'm down .8 (.4 kg.) for the week.  Seriously.  I couldn't eat for 3 1/2 days.  I vomited more times than I can remember.  I starved, suffered, cursed my horrible luck and lost....POINT EIGHT OF A FUCKING POUND.

So.Not.Fair.

The only thought that got me through the stupid ordeal was at least I'd have a decent weigh in.  At least I'd finally be out of the 170's (77-81 kg.), the decade where weight loss has apparently gone to die.  I've been there for four months.  I was 1.4 lbs. (.6 kg.) away from the 160's.  With my BIG loss this week, I'm still .8 lbs. from the 160's.  NOT.FUCKING.FAIR!!!!

This calls for a well timed "HISS" at your scale. Show it who is boss! Hiss it into submission.

Kerri said...

I feel your pain!!! Hang in there! "They" say it will eventually come off.

Jen said...

Preach IT!!!

Rhonda said...

I'm sorry. That really isn't fucking fair. :(

Sarah said...

It gets so much more difficult as me move closer to goal.. Hang in there!!

Amanda said...

Damn, that does suck! Maybe it will just take a couple more days to catch up with you?? You never know!

It's your body being a butthead. Don't take it personally. Relax. Stay focused and eating back-to-normal this week (sans vomiting and not being able to eat) and you'll lose just great next week.

Keep goin', sweetness! Don't get discouraged! You've got this!!!

*hugs*

Shannon said...

your body is probally holding onto whatever food it can get right now after just liquids and throwing up and everything it went through.
I'm sorry you didn't see a bigger loss though.
*HUGS*

I'm sorry friend! Next week hopefully the numbers will be there. Perhaps with you being sick and not getting much/vomiting on top of that, your body was just hanging on. ~hugs

Next week will be better!

NOT FAIR!

Jacquie said...

That certainly sucks BUT don't despair, it may very well be a delayed reaction and you will see a bigger loss than expected next week!

Debbie said...

I know how you feel. Sometimes the scales suck. Hang in there and it will start to show on the scales.

MandaPanda said...

ARGH! You'll get there...I promise!

Tina said...

Maybe give it a few days? My scale seems to lag maybe yours will too?

Spring is coming!!! ;)

xxxooo

I have had the same experience whenever I've been too tight/couldn't eat - it's like my body holds on to the weight! It's so frustrating, if you're suffering you at least hope to lose a decent amount of weight! I feel your pain :/

Jen said...

:( I agree with the others that you'll probably see a delayed loss from this. Your body is probably hanging on to fluids and such as a reaction and once it realizes it doesn't have to, it'll let go of the extra. How frustrating, though!!

Hang in there mama... it'll happen.

Nearly there.... I know it's no consolation prize but 160 is just around the corner.

I think maybe your body was absorbing everything it could because of the said lack of eating :(

Angela said...

This just means next week is going to be huge! Stick with it!

#1- you'll get there. I know, not what you want to hear right now, and maybe not the best thing to say ever- but it's true Amanda! YOU WILL GET THERE!!! And it will be bliss when you do.

#2- Starving never works. I know you didn't do it on purpose- but obviously here is the damn reminder for us. I've tried it a time or two myself- never works. Fuhhhhh. Sorry to hear it didn't work this time either.

I'm cursing the skies for you!!

Xoxo-

Your "big one" is comming...you just need to reassure your body that you aren't starving it on purpose.
