Weekly weigh-in: -44!

Down 3 pounds this week (since last Tuesday), but it's a little confusing. I really wasn't expecting a loss this week. My personal weigh-in recording day is every Tuesday, although I step on the scale and check it out daily. For the HFH challenge, we weigh in on Friday. So last week, I started with my Tuesday weight, and noticed no change between Tuesday and Friday. I also didn't notice much change over the weekend. I had made my peace with it: the scale is just a number, I can only control what I put in my mouth & when and my exercise, I'll get to wear the new pants a little more, yada yada ya. So I just kept up doing what I was doing, what else was I going to do? And plunk! Down it went. I'll take it.

Also received some good test results: my A1C number is 6.6 now (down from 9.5), my cholesterol and triglycerides have greatly improved since June, but my HDL/LDL numbers aren't quite where they need to be. Oh, well, little by little...Liver and kidney functions normal, which means metformin seems to be agreeing with my body. Yeay!
