Day 172 Weigh-in

Yesterday's number sticks.  Officially. 

The scale isn't the only number that defines results, so I happily turned to my measurements. 

Oh goody.  I lost alright ... in the BUST.

That just puts the dot under the exclamation mark, on a not-very-fun weigh-in day. 

The hips, of course, stubbornly remain exactly the same.  Grrrrrrrrrr.

Right, so I am sticking with the plan, and trusting better results are on the way.  Meanwhile, I needed to jot a quick note here to say I may not be able to post again until Wednesday.  We have severe weather due in tomorrow - my husband's surgery day.  Plus, there is a follow-up with the surgeon on Tuesday AND Dad has to go into the hospital for his next procedure.  If the winter snow/ice hits as predicted, we'll (all) need to grab hotel rooms nearer the hospital tomorrow.  Regardless, it is going to be a busy two days.

Thank you to all who have given me encouraging words, both in commentary and by email.  I truly appreciate it, but there really is no fear that I will quit.  That isn't even an option.  We all have our frustrating dieting weeks, and this just happens to be one of mine.  It is the pits that it is at the beginning of a new year, and a new challenge, but sometimes that is just how it rolls.

No time to update numbers today (except for bust measurement).  Maybe, by the time I get back online to post, it'll have corrected itself.  (One can only hope.)

Onward and DOWNward ...
