Hazy, Hot & Humid!

Great day to be INSIDE with a bunch of preserved bodies.

Looking forward to seeing The Bodies Exhibition later.  Should be fascinating.

My e-ticket came for Tony Robbins seminar.  Just 3 weeks away.  Not only is this a big bucket list item, but I get to share it with a life long friend I haven't seen in about 4 years.

TR talks about peer group and upping the ante ... get better peers. Well, she's one of my "better" peers.  Smart, interesting, caring - my own personal Oprah (without the Oprah stuff I don't like!).  Couldn't ask for a better person coming along.  I'm pumped!

Well, tomorrow is my "scheduled" weigh-in day.  I'm a bit on the fence about weighing in.  Whole30 feels strongly about not using the scale number as a measure of success or esteem or happiness.

I've been integrating Whole30 philosophies for about a year and a half.  So not much scale jumping over that time.  I did weigh-in recently because I needed a reality check.  It was sobering.  But I handled "the number" and found the motivation to get my butt in gear (no wonder my pants are tight - duh!)

I wonder if tomorrow will be motivating or upsetting.  Down "enough" - I'm pumped and excited.  Down "not enough" - I beat myself up all day over it.  So why weigh in???  Because I want validation for my efforts.  I want to "know" what I'm doing is working.  And probably should know if it's not working.  I WILL be back in my clothes by my trip - tick tock.

I know my water weight is letting go.  I can see it in my face and lots of extra trips to bathroom overnight - telltale sign.  I think the unknown is I didn't weigh myself last week and maybe the number was even higher than I thought!  Then the downward movement will feel like "less than enough."  Cue the mental punches.

Oh to live in my mind.  Crazy town.
