... I didn't even get to eat biscuits and gravy (393.8 pounds)

Well, I knew that at some point I would have a week where I did not lose weight or even gained a little and this was the week.  When going to weigh in, I really thought that I had lost weight this week.  I didn't cheat, I worked really hard at the diet, I felt really good about my chances of losing weight this week.  I would be lying if I said I was not disappointed when I saw that I had gained 8/10 of a pound when I didn't even get to eat biscuits and gravy.  I have come to the conclusion though this afternoon that I feel good.  I am proud that I didn't cheat.  I didn't lose weight and I don't know why, but for me this is about creating lifelong habits, not just to see immediate results.  Don't be mistaken though, if I work hard next week and don't lose weight I will be upset.  For now, however, I am content.
