it's not 5lb

Today started off well. I went to RPM but forgot my pressure bandage for my thigh. In the changing room I realised and thought 'Damn! that means it's going to be digging into me and hurting.

But you know what? It didn't. It didn't dig into my thigh one single time, it was fine. I had actually thought the bandage seemed to be sliding on easier and wasn't as tight but this deffinitely confirmed it. My thighs have got smaller and I no longer need the bandage to stop the bike digging into me.

The class was ok though I was feeling quite queezy this morning but I was pleased my favouite track was included. That cheered me up. Oh my god it's horrible but I love it. Can anyone out there explain the psychology of my loving the track Matt describes in class as 'the worst track you will ever ride'

After that I got weighed and found I was 101.6kg. I asked Matt what that is and he looked at the chart and said 15st 12lb. That is a 5lb loss. I was pleased with that. That is a reasonable loss at last.

I got home and checked it and it was wrong 101.6kg isn't 15st 12lb it is 16stone exactly. Which means I've actually only lost 3lb.

Gutted!

Errr, 3lb is still bloody good going, especially as you know the lighter you get, the harder it is to lose larger amounts!

You should still be bloody proud of yourself, especially with the No Scales Victory of the smaller thighs!

yeah, I wasn't pinning my hopes on anything over 2lb after the last 2 weeks so if I had known it was 3 I would have thought 'better than expected' but to have thought it was 5 and I was now 15st 12lb and then find it's only 3 and I'm still 16st is quite dissapointing.

Have you checked his other weights? If he has been using the same chart all along its all relative so you may have weighed diffferent last time too?

I usually have my own with me to check myself but forgot it today.
