Lady Justice Wept Today

So....remember back when I decided that instead of letting little daily fluctuations bother me, I would only focus on weekly weigh-in's to ensure that I was still making progress? 

Yeah, screw that noise.   Life was all sunshine and rainbows back then.  Things are different now.

In case you missed it, today's Weekly Progress Report was a complete and utter failure with a weekly net gain of 0.2 pounds. 

I know that might seem like a trivial gain, but when you're supposed to be actively losing weight and not simply maintaining weight, a weekly gain however small is a big problem.  I even got down to a low of 148.2 by Monday....so this is almost a full pound of backtracking.   

I can handle an upward fluctuation following a naughty day, but I have been steadfast in my adherence to the plan.  I even went to the WOP store to get more gear (twice!) because I have been working out almost every single day for at least an hour. 

Plus, what the fuck, scale?    This was supposed to be my big week.   On the blogiversary I got all vulnerable and all "oh, can I actually do this?" with the big doe eyes......what's supposed to happen next is a groundbreakingly awesome weigh-in in which I prove to the world (and, thereby, to myself) that YES I CAN. 

THAT'S THE MOTHERF*****G TROPE!     You're officially off-script, scale.   Instead of the heartwarmingly inspirational moment that we've all been waiting for, we get this epic fail. 

To anthropomorphize this experience, my blog is the dude on the tire swing. 

I get that the scales of justice are supposed to be blind......but Lady Justice wept today.
