Unofficially

I stepped on the scale this morning... for 2 reasons.  One, to see how I was doing cause I have been ingesting a lot of cold remedy meds and two, because I just wanted to see how I was doing... lol

Okay I step on the scale most every day, once a day, first thing in the morning, but that is just to make sure that I am staying on track.  I use it as a guide not as an obsession.   Yeah I might complain if the number went up but I also know to take into consideration where I am at during the month; what I have done the day before; what I have eaten the day before; how much stress I have had; so many many factors come into play.
Today's scale reading made me smile.  It said I was down 2 pounds. Now to hang onto that til the official WI on Wednesday.  I don't see it being a problem because I am eating light and drinking lots due to a nasty chest cold I have.  I have been fighting a fever - its slightly raised - and now my ears are starting to ache.  My lung capacity isn't all that great either which gives me warning signs of pneumonia.   With my home remedies I am feeling not too bad so will continue on with what I am doing.

We are getting a lot of snow right now and our road does not get cleared too often.  My car has winter tires on it but it is fairly low to the ground. It doesn't take much snow to fall before I am plowing it with my car.  DH keeps our driveway clear so that isn't an issue for me but the side roads are and I have to travel on them a ways before I get to a main one that would be cleared.  I didn't put the winters on my Ranger - its not a 4x4 anyway and I have to put weight in the back to have it be any good in the snow.  

The reason I mentioned the snow is because Wednesday is supposed to be the worst day here for snow... hmmm I may not make it to WI.  Or they may be closed cause the leader or receptionist can't make it.  Hard to say but I am looking ahead.  Oh well, if I miss Wednesday I can always WI  at another meeting this week - even though it just won't be the same.

HOpe your 2 lbs stick! (or would that be slide?) lol I wish I could see movement in my WL... but I snuck a peek... and not impressed. I think there is something wrong with me that should be checked out. I am thinking of going and getting my blood read and see if there is anything amiss.... but to have the extra $$ todo so!
I will cross my fingers you get out on Wed to your meeting!!!
