I find that once you see the fluctuations you start to recognise the trends rather than fretting about the nonsensical ups and downs.<br /><br />I think I might have to start looking at wedding venues...not getting married you understand (am still married in fact...) but it sounds hilarious, especially the woman called Tits!!<br /><br />Tell us more, pleeeeease....<br /><br />Sorry you guys had a row. I'm sure it's all made up now but I empathise. I too know how hard it is to bring greivances into the open at the right time and in the right way. I steel myself to do it with Rich 'cos I remember how difficult it made things with D not being able to express myself and I really don't want to start off on the wrong track...<br /><br />Practise makes perfect they say??<br /><br />Lesley xxLesleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08197039686417212109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-367518755083475837.post-62025606298073507072011-02-07T23:14:38.858-08:002011-02-07T23:14:38.858-08:00How exciting that you've found your wedding ve...How exciting that you've found your wedding venue! Boo to tetchy bfs and rowing though. Is the tetchiness wedding related? Mine refused to even talk about the wedding, let along engage in making decisions about it, until the beginning of this year...<br /><br />Daily weight fluctuations are a depressing thing, and I have to say, I find myself happier in general if I just ignore the scales until the Moment Of Truth. Of course, you have to do what works for you - but daily weighing is only useful if you can be fairly detached about it. <br /><br />Right, onwards and downwards, and all things crossed for Porky to make a reappearance on Friday!<br /><br />SxSerenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08902775858327076421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-367518755083475837.post-72546091225659971912011-02-07T11:14:51.116-08:002011-02-07T11:14:51.116-08:00I guess I'll stick my neck out here - I'm ...I guess I'll stick my neck out here - I'm a daily "weigher". Mind you, I don't weigh more than once a day - people who do that mystify me...<br /><br />My reason for weighing is simple - it keeps me relatively accountable (and I use that term very loosely these days!). Most of the time I can stay sort of detached about the numbers - they can nonsensically fluctuate quite a lot from day-to-day.<br /><br />For me, it's when I'm hiding from the scale that is most worrisome. When I don't weigh, I'm in binge mode. I wish I could say otherwise, but that is the truth.<br /><br />Maybe I just need to find another way of keeping track of being accountable - like stickers on the calendar?<br /><br />Do what works for you, Peridot.<br /><br />Funny how some people can just get over a fight and go to sleep (like my husband). I lie there and stew in angst, like you. It sounds like you'll get it all sorted out.<br /><br />The "Tits" thing? Oh my. Are you sure they didn't have a hidden camera somewhere, secretly taping your reaction for a comedy show?Ex Yo-Yo Dieter Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10833922126301063523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-367518755083475837.post-8149220061356710332011-02-07T10:55:24.889-08:002011-02-07T10:55:24.889-08:00Ditto - I'm with Claire.

Weight normally fluctuates, especially over the weekend (mine's usually down on Sat because I get up so much later than a weekday) and then up by the end of the weekend because I've used all my flex points and eaten more processed stuff. The good thing is you saw the lower weight at all, which means it's not long now before you'll see it again. Just keep eating well and you'll be fine. <br /><br />Glad you found your venue though - that's one big stress off your mind.xxstarfish264https://www.blogger.com/profile/14024515361050828981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-367518755083475837.post-49556896585585559472011-02-07T10:05:41.634-08:002011-02-07T10:05:41.634-08:00My dear, put the effing scales in the loft, or a c...My dear, put the effing scales in the loft, or a cupboard, or smash them with a lump hammer. Weight fluctuation is normal. NORMAL! My weight fluctuates by about 5lbs over the course of a week and of course, I want to kill things when I see that peak. But it is just my bod, it's just what it does. I am having this very same discussion with a load of friends at the moment - all this weighing is addictive, but destructive, very much like all bad habits (I hear crack can be much the same). But seriously - it it said 1lb lighter you'd be so happy. Just get off the SODding things (ha, see what I did there?). Ironically, weighing yourself too much is the opposite of healthy.clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12488607759792842678noreply@blogger.com
