I&#8217;ve tried my best to count the points, had a few bad days. Combine that with the fact that I must weigh in and your stomachs in knots.  Will I gain, lose or stay the same? Why is it important to me to loose this weight? Is the number on the scale really that important?<\/p>\n<p>I have been told it&#8217;s more important how your clothes fit, rather than what the scale reads. But we all look to the number. How can a number have so much power over me or should I say us? I&#8217;m thinking the number is the visual piece we need. After all you can&#8217;t feel on ounce or a pound, and the clothes don&#8217;t change until many numbers fall. So how do you pick that magic number? <\/p>\n<p>For me starting this journey my doctor advised me what my healthy weight should be. It was not set by Weight Watchers, or the Biggest Loser fans. Just as a side note, Weight Watchers does advise you to meet with your doctor. My point being my number is based on my bodies needs. That&#8217;s one reason weight is different for everyone.<\/p>\n<p>So why do I still dread this day? It didn&#8217;t take me one day to put on the weight, so it won&#8217;t take one day to take off the weight either. So here we go&#8230;&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>The number reads up .07 oz. I&#8217;m disappointed, but expected it I guess. I knew this last week had been tough. I had a few bad eating days, as well as not knowing how to count some points. I didn&#8217;t have all the information I needed to calculate them. I must also face  that I made wrong choices. Therefore all I can do know is start again and wait till next week.<\/p>\n<p>Before I know it, the week will be over and I hope for better results. Until that time, I can only try my best and move forward. I must admit, I will pray and ask God for help. I know I can&#8217;t do it alone so I ask you all to guide me and pray for me. Thank you for the continued support.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The much anticipated weigh in day has arrived.
