I've lost 4 pounds

[amberpatomo]

Today I went to the doctor for an exam and when I was weighed I had lost 4 pounds. I always have my shoes on and my clothes so I wonder if I am 1 or 2 pounds less??? You think?

This was very motivating. I actually feel like I can do it now

Wooo Hoooo, so what you are telling me is that you CAN actually go to the doctor and NOT be depressed by that dad-gummed scale? who da thunk

Good job thought Mrs Amber. that's awesome news for sure.

ha ha ha. That made me laugh because I do get very anxious right before going in because I know they are going to weigh me

[Big_Sissy]

I doesn't make me nervous, but I sure do hate that thing.

Way to go Amber! Keep us updated on your weight loss. I'm down 5 lbs if I'm not bloated.

Way to go Amber! I am proud of you, keep it up.

YEAH!!!!!!!!! That's always awesome news! And yes, I'll bet you've lost more like 6 if when you weigh yourself at home you have a lot less clothes on.

[teeny]

Yeah for 5ftD too!!! (sorry, didn't see your post until after I replied to AP's)

Good job! That is huge! So do you feel like the classes have helped? Anything else that helped?

[amberpatomo]

The classes have definitely helped because my heart rate stays in the fat burning zone for a good amount of time. I just love step aerobics!

Yea, Amber and 5D! Isn't it funny how even if our ultimate goal is not to neccesarily lose weight, we still rely on the scale to tell us how we are doing. I dread WI every week. Even the weeks I have done well, because it just seems like I never know what it is going to do. Just remember our weight can fluctuate up to 5 lbs even in just one day. So don't get discouraged if the scale slips back up again. You will eventually see it continually get a little lower even if it does go up and down in the process.

Thanks for the heads up Dia. I didn't know that.
