Weigh In #11 – Tales from the Scales
1
Started my own new challenge today. Ok, so not so much of a challenge as just trying to actually DO what it is that I want to be doing.
Sounds really specific, doesn’t it?
My weigh in this morning was not good, but the same as the past couple of days. Lower than my max, but no change to speak of. Mostly because I’ve been avoiding facing my “issue” of CONTROL. I blogged about it yesterday on my SCOH journal. Today is a new day, and so far so good. Will see ya again next week and THAT will determine how successful my intended methods are.

3/19 Weigh In – Tales from the Scales
1
Weighing in has been a bit spotty this past few. Hoping there’s going to be a new challenge from the TFTS gals soon!
I have restarted my Thin Within life. Set some new goals using SparkPeople goal tools. They rock! It is, by far, the best place to go for tracking your health and fitness stuff. I *highly* recommend it!
