This is an actual conversation I had recently with our bathroom scale. I was going to take a picture of it, but realized cleaning it to make it "blog worthy" would take more than 4 minutes so that was out.
"Hi scale. Haven't stepped on you in a while. I know you see Jeff daily, even twice a day sometimes, but I have not been brave enough to take that first step. The last time we did have a conversation I wasn't thrilled with what you told me. I even shared it with the world wide web and that was a big step for me. The past few weeks have been pretty good. I was on track the day after our last meeting for at least 15 days... and then I got weak.
A friend had us over for dinner and I couldn't turn down the Chips, Salsa, Guacamole and wine....oh how I have missed my wine. Truly I thought I could be strong but I was mistaken. Next came the Shower, oh the shower, so many sweet treats (all made and provided by me mind you) but around none the less. Most of the food had Gluten in it, BUT that did not stop me from enjoying the things that did not. I am pretty sure the icing on the cake was from my trip to Costco where I fell victim to a rookie mistake and purchased my top 3 favorite foods, Sweet Chili Brown Rice Chips. They are amazing, they delicious and yes they are addictive. I had to actually THROW the bag away because I have no discipline around them. Such a waste, but it had to be done.
So...here we are.... 15 days of following the rules, and three VERY BAD DAYS of indulgence. Time to face the music. Time to take that "second" first step..."
Scale: "159.5" or what I like to think of as "hahahahhahaaaaahahahaaaahaaahahahaaaaaa"
