This morning I had one of those weird dreams where you are half-dreaming and half-awake. Those are never very settling in themselves. Further than that, in my dream I was standing in a room of some sort with three other people. One person I don’t recall. The other two people were Cathy from eDiets and Raphael from eDiets. And they were all lecturing me on why I should stop weighing myself daily. And they weren’t being very nice (unlike in real life) and they were telling me to stop stressing myself out and relax. And that “weight was just a number on the scale.” I was not happy in my dream. I was frustrated and overwhelmed and almost in tears.
But in my half-awake state, I knew this dream was not real. And I knew that as soon as I was fully awake I would ignore Cathy and Raphael’s warnings and good-intentioned thoughts and catapult myself immediately onto the scale to take in the hopefully sweet sight of success. And I did. And guess what? SWEET SUCCESS WAS MINE. Awesome. Excited to see how this week pans out tomorrow morning. I have a good feeling about this Wednesday weigh-in.
