Angie and I have a Wed and Fri ritual. After our swim workout in the morning, we each get on the scale for a weigh in. Now you if you look at the makeup of our team you will notice that there are three very lean men and two sturdy women!!
– Sidenote: Maggie is excluded from “the Team” in this post because she is the Coach! and if I include her – she blows the point/purpose/complaint of the whole post! Sorry Mags – love you but you don’t fit in my gripe this morning!! 🙂 –
Well the boys are always talking about how they lose pounds in the course of a single workout or day!!!! Angie and I would be happy to lose a Pound in the course of a week!!!! We have also come to note that we consistently (both of us) weigh 1 – 1.5 pounds more on Wed than we do on Friday – except today! Today, each of us is still on our Wed Weight (typically the bigger number of the two weigh ins) and I say that because yes it is a CONSISTENT number each Wed!!! and has been for about 3-4 weeks!!!
We have noticed that our clothes are fitting a bit looser, but the pounds are consistent and they are Consistently There!!!! – each and every one of them each week! They all jump on the scale with us!!! Now we (Angie and I) have come to terms with this – well we are telling ourselves we have come to terms with it – and we say “It is Just a Number! we feel good, we feel strong and our clothes are fitting” and some days a little more roomy than others. However, it is still frustrating that the boys are experiencing weight loss and we aren’t!!!
Just had to get that one off my chest today! Trust me there are more ventings in me waiting to be blogged – so be prepared for what could be whole long series of ventings…..
