The scale said I lost 4.2 pounds, and I didn’t even drop the kids at the pool yet (as my friend Adam would say)! It might be slightly flukey, but it makes me feel great about averting the code red last night. I had scrambled eggs instead of burger/fries. Only used 3 flex points. Now, I just have to stay strong this weekend, we’re going back home so Linnea can go to a bridal shower, and I’m sure there’ll be good (well, bad) food and cookies to eat.
Also, as an update, I bought the domain name “fatsoforum.com” this morning, so that’s exciting. I’m still debating whether I want to start it right now with a basic theme or take some time and modify it first. I’m also flirting with the idea of having a separate homepage rather than just the forum. The homepage could have links to everyone’s personal sites. Any thoughts?

Guess who went out to lunch with work (including pita bread and several french fries) and then proceeded to eat brownie bites? LINNEA! She’s a CHEATER! Not to mention she’s going back out to lunch with a friend tomorrow, and a bridal shower on Saturday. Man, that really makes me feel like a schmuck. I’m so hungry right now. Sooooo hungry. We don’t even know what we’re having for dinner. This is a code red! I just want to go to Chili’s or something. I repeat, CODE RED! Somebody better make me a healthy dinner soon or I’m getting a burger (and fries).

I weighed myself this morning, but forgot what it was. it was 261.something. At least a pound, I remember that much. Forgetting the decimal is unacceptable so I’m not listing it. Anyway, I was right. I knew the 2 pound loss after 1 day was inaccurate. Now I’m beginning to see my scale’s true colors. Or, the 3 slices of angel-food cake I ate on Tuesday weren’t so light and fluffy after all. They were pretty small though.
Advice: (*TMI alert*) You should always weigh yourself at the same time of day. On occasion I’ve been >5lbs heavier at night than in the morning. Thus, I weigh myself in the morning. If you want to make yourself feel better about it, weigh after a poop, and before breakfast, if possible. Depending how regular you are, that could give you that extra pound you were looking for.
Forum: I think we have a decent amount of people interested in joining the forum. I think I’m going to start it soon, so I hope everyone who expressed interest will actually participate, otherwise it’ll be a big waste of a domain registration. I’ll keep you posted. Any recommendations on what should be included with the site, outside of the actual forum?
