It turns out that Woolworth's haven't completely got rid of the weighing machine, they just stuck it in a dark corner where nobody ever goes. But I braved the paper plates and napkins section and weighed myself today to see how much weight I'd lost after my vow roughly a month ago to get back inside the normal weight range for my age, height and gender. And here are the results!

I've GAINED three and a half pounds? That's ridiculous! I've been swimming! I've only occasionally eaten a whole bag of tangfastics in one sitting! I've been reasonably conscious of my intention to lose weight most of the time, and I've still gone and got fatter? Nope, not possible. The machine must be broken.
I have lost some height, though. I'm a centimetre shorter than last time the machine measured me. That's something to be proud of.
Is your height with, or without your shoes on?
ReplyDeleteYou could be building muscle which weighs more than fat.
ReplyDeleteAlso if you are swimming and eating more as you are increasing your appetite that won't help, lol.
But weigh minus shoes, the weight nazis make you take your shoes off so you do too!!
