Ready, Aim, Fire.



I am no longer having a love affair with my scale. The lazy ass thing won't hold up it's end of the bargain. Our deal is...I eat right, and it's supposed to move in a downward motion.

I've done my part.

Mr. Scale, on the other hand, is quite uncooperative.

I'm gonna shoot the fucker worthless piece of crap.

That's right. Two straights weeks of ZERO weight loss.

Let me repeat that. Zero. Nada. Zilch.

We are not amused.

Granted, it's better than a weight gain. I am thankful for that.

But when you stick to plan, work so hard at losing the weight, and the fat refuses to break up with you...it's time to take drastic measures.



Dana, I need to borrow your gun.

Luckily my scale finally broke about a month ago so I don't have to put up with that sucker's rude reporting

Don't give up!

Don't give up!

Try switching up your cardio routine and lift weights as building muscle burns fat. I've been working with my friend who is a personal trainer and he gives me super advice. Once I switched up my normal routine I saw loss in my weight as I was where you were...watching the scale sit at zero while I busted me arsh.

You can do it! You already are doing an amzing job!

Been there done that!!!

Weight loss is honestly one of the most difficult things I've EVER done. It was a never-ending roller coaster--up a week, down a week, maintain for a couple... Just remember to look at your overall progress and make sure you're eating enough to support your working out ways. I know I typically plateaued for a few weeks at a time because my body started screaming, "no, fat, PlEEEEEEASE don't leave me!!!!!" If you just keep at it, I promise it will come off eventually!!

((HUGS))

Hang in there, the scale will eventually cooperate. But let me know if you need some bullets.;-)

Hey, pat yourself on the back for taking part in getting healthy! I just looked at a recent photo of myself and just about fainted! I guess the late night cookies and milk isn't a good thing, right?

I hate those effing things(scales that is), they are nothing but torture. Throw it off the nearest bridge. I think you look fucking fantabulous!!

Trisha.R.Jackson said...

(((hugs))) Definitely lift weights - you may not see the scale move but the inches will fly right off!

Al said...

Lol...what a great sense of humor you have. Keep doing your part and allow the scale to live to see another day and I'm sure your relationship with it will only improve with time. You can do it.
