What I Weigh Today

152

Posted by: joymanning In: Weigh In

I was not expecting to see that number. I have been seeing 150, 150.5 for the past few days. But a restaurant meal, even a relatively light restaurant meal,  will reliably add a few numbers on the scale. I’d like to see the number drop below 150. 150 is the point at which the big weight moves on a doctor’s office scale.

Isn’t it funny how important that big weight is? I always close my eyes and pray that they don’t have to move that weight … it’s such a weird mind game that we play on ourselves.

The big weight definitely has gravitas.
