Check-in on Weight and Entrecard

Weighing It
Around 4pm yesterday, it hit me – I didn’t weigh in for the week! Oops. I had been thinking about it Tuesday, but Wednesday morning it just never came to mind. I forgot to weigh this morning too, so I don’t have a clue where I’m at.
I’m still feeling frustrated with [...]

Wednesday’s Weekly Weigh In

Today’s weigh-in is going to be short and sweet. I’m pressed for time and distracted
Thanks to Sarah and Kristine for joining in last week!

Wednesday Without the Weigh In

I did not get on the scale this week. I don’t think I’ve gained, but I’m 99% sure I haven’t lost anything…and I’m getting a little discouraged with that. I am not giving up, however! I just feel at a bit of a low or lull the past few days. I [...]
