Guilty - but very proud!
09 Apr 2013, 14:02
I am feeling very guilty but I also have a big grin that I can't get rid of...
I had committed to not weigh myself for a month after starting this diet on 25th March - so I hid the scales and resisted all my impulses to take a peek.
So today, after only two weeks I had a doctors appointment - just a repeat prescription - so expected the usual blood pressure test and checking heart and lungs.
What I didn't expect was his insistence on weighing me to see if there had been any changes. I tried to tell him I didn't want to be weighed, but very difficult trying to explain to my french doctor in broken francais the reason I didn't want to see my weight!
He kept saying 'oui, oui' he understood, and then telling me to hurry up and get on the scales!
I did try not to look, but the temptation was just too great.
So happily I have lost a kilogram in 2 weeks.
That just doesn't look grand enough for how proud I am ..... I'll have another go - I've lost A WHOLE KILOGRAM in 2 weeks !!!
So I feel great now.... a little guilty at failing to keep to my commitment after only two weeks... but great nonetheless.

Congratulations! I'm trying to weigh myself not too often myself, but sometimes it's hard!

Well done! And you didn't give in, it was only at your doctor's insistence! I wish I could be as strong, but I am a dreadful weigher
