Blessing in disguise

Today's weigh-in: 156 lbs

Again, I'm getting a wide range of readings. I don't really feel like spending money on a new scale though. At least I'm seeing a downward trend, and that's what's important. Yesterday didn't go as well as I wanted it to. The foods I ate were mostly pretty healthy but I think the total calorie count may have been a lot. I did, however, resist pizza and cupcakes, so that's a small accomplishment. I'm amazed at how much people eat in one day. I mean, we just eat and eat and eat. Sometimes I think struggling with weight is a blessing in disguise, because sooner or later, most people probably gain some weight. So if you've always struggled with it, either you won't gain as much as you would've otherwise, or you'll know how to handle it better. I dunno. Maybe I'm wrong.

Anyway, I'm feeling good today, and am hopeful. It helps to blog and to read other blogs on here. It makes me feel like I'm going through it with other people and motivates me to do well. I intend to keep writing even if I lose the weight because it'll help me to not gain it back. Weight is so sneaky like that.
