    Weigh Ins

    By blogadmin | February 17, 2008

    Weigh Offs they should be called….isn’t that what you are measuring - Weight Off not the Weight In. Either way, it’s still scary.
    Do you do what some have hinted at on some reality shows - bulk up, then shed more at the next weigh in?? I think not. That would only be fooling yourself.
    Sure I’m scared. Have I lost anything? Will it be enough to put me ahead in the comp? Am I happy with my effort this week.
    My brain has turned into a rolling question sheet - I feel like the host of a tv quiz show. Why are the answers not popping up quickly like they’re on an autocue??
    We hold so much faith in numbers. I’m healthy. I have no sugar, blood pressure, heart or other physical ailments yet I am morbidly obese apparently. Why can’t your target weight be based on more than just numbers?
    If I get to 70kgs I will look like a very different person, I will be fit, healthy and able to fit into sizes that have run away from me since I was a teenager, yet according to the weight gurus I will still be overweight. Seems crazy to me.
    I watched The Biggest Loser tonight for the first time this season. They have an interesting Forum People get so heated about this show. I myself would never go in it, but I have lots of admiration for those that do. It’s hard enough to face your own demons let alone doing it on national television - says me who is writing this all online for who knows how many people to see.
