401.6lbs
I’ve really struggled with writing this up because there is part of me saying just bury my head in the sand and pretend it didn’t happen, but it did happen and it wasn’t an accident, so this has to happen.
With the skinny jab on the way I made a decision that I wanted to address any craving I might have before I got to the point where I couldn’t have some of my favourite foods. We had a really relaxed week, we ate things that we enjoy, we took the kids out for a treat, we had chocolate and sweets, we didn’t stress about food, and we knew we were both going to see it on the scales. I accept that, but damn does it suck to be back over 400lbs.
I guess really there are two reasons that I have actually gone through with making this post. First, today is the day that I get my first skinny jab, so I wanted a record of my starting weight. Second and more importantly, the entire point of this blog is to hold myself accountable, to not hide anything, to be open and honest about everything so that I have an accurate record of my weight loss journey. So here we are, evidence of the damage a “cheat week” can do.
