Denial: The Scale MUST Be Broken!

I swore I wouldn't weigh myself any more than once a week. Something like "every Saturday morning" would have been awesome. But the scale is there, right by the shower so of course I have to step on it every day. I'm pushing at 135 again. I knew it. I felt disgusting the last two days.

I've been sick and what does the doctor tell me? "You have to eat more. You can cut calories without cutting back on all the food. Plus you should still stay at 1500." Eww... I know it's the recommended amount of daily yadayada but I reasoned that I need to eat less than I burn to lose weight. Otherwise I'll plateau at 135 forver which, of course, i DO NOT WANT. But my boyfriend wants me to eat and I have been sick so I let him feed me.

Weds we shared a Spinach Alfredo pizza from PapaJohns and last night I cooked chili and to eat with the cornbread muffins his parents gave us. That's right, I never mentioned this before but his parents both work for a grocery chain here in Brooklyn. That means we almost always go home with food when we visit them. And his grandparents even sent me a bread machine recently. I have yet to open it but flipping through the book alone made me crave delicious loaves of caloric hell.

Luckily I've been sleeping through breakfast and eating a lunch/dinner meal and getting too distracted to eat dinner. Weds it was a video game we played til bed time and yesterday I had Project Runway and the repeat after to push me to midnight without snacking.

I'm back in the office, feeling non flu-ish so I'm going back to eating less. Trying Wheat Thins and lemon pepper tuna for lunch. Wheat Thins taste better than I thought they would. :D

I'm still thinking my scale is broken. HOPING it is. I got a digital scale so I could get a decimal reading. But unlike a manual dial where I can see if it's zeroed out or not, I can't tell if the digital one is "off" or not. :[ Does anyone else have this problem? Now I want to get a second scale.
