I am nervous


I do my weekly weigh in tomorrow and I am nervous and excited.  Nervous because I will be 2 lbs from a milestone accomplishment on my road to 50 by 12/31/19.  

I saw myself in the mirror the other day and I saw a flatter stomach, a smaller bottom.  I know I don't have a six pack but I saw flatness in some areas hard to describe.  Not an ab line in the middle but on the sides - is that even possible?  Anyways, there is less stomach or at least I thought there was one morning and I believe it is still true.

I fit in all the clothes I own and some are even way loose.  

So why am I nervous?

What if it is all in my head, what if the scale doesn't show that 2 lb. loss?  I also have to take my measurements for this month and I am pretty confident I have lost more inches but what if I haven't?  Am I overthinking it?  Yes, of course I am.  Why do I weigh in and take measurements tomorrow - because I have to enter my stats for the month of October for my 16 week challenge.  Yes, I know the last day of the month is Wednesday but I just prefer to do it on the last Saturday of the month.

So I am telling myself calm down tiger, you got this and no matter what the scale or measuring tape tell you, you are on the right path.  I will also paraphrase the quote above:  A journey of weight loss begins with one pound and I am doing it!!!
