I expect to have gone up on the scale because of many things, including not really drinking water. I think I've drank one glass this week on Wednesday. Instead of addressing my thirst with water, I eat salty foods. I know this makes it worse. But I've been so stressed and emotional and so up-and-down. I'm starting to treat food as love again. Comfort food really helps in this level of stress. I'm really in survival mode right now. I just need to finish this semester.
Anyway, I'm very much expecting to have gone up, and it's okay. I know that when I stop working these crazy 10-15 hour days, I will be able to return to the healthy lifestyle that I know gets me to lose 1-2 pounds a week.
I'm proud of myself for continuing to weigh in every Friday even though I'm not expecting the number to go down. The number on the scale does not define me right now. But later on I will reflect on this part of my life and remember how much work I put into my graduate degrees.
OK.... now to weigh in.
Well, look at at that. I didn't gain! I think I'll celebrate with a workout. :)
