Weight-Watching Dopers?

Well, the gods must have smiled upon me and forgiven me my sins, because I was down 2.5 pounds. That got me another gold star and brought my total to 20.3! Still, I don’t think I’ll risk that again real soon.

Congrats on the 20 pound loss, demi!!!

Woo-hoooo!

Many thanks! :slight_smile:

I usually weigh in on Wednesdays at noon. I love the leader/weighers/desk person at that time. I’m done before I know it and can sit down to enjoy a meeting lead by the best dang WW leader ever.

Sadly, I’m in training today, so I went to weigh in early at 7:00 AM. Every time I’ve done this in the past I’ve noticed the same flaws in the human beings who run this meeting.

  1. The desk person is slower than molasses.
  2. The weigher I usually get is neither a) sympathetic or b) contgratulatory. If I lose weight, she says nothing. If I gain weight, she comments in a negative way… nothing terrible, but little passive-agressive comments.
  3. The leader is way too peppy and screechy for a 7:30 AM meeting.

The leader can be forgiven for her inequities. The other two should be banished to the planet Buttnugget for deep anal flossing.

Today I lost my temper with the weigher. I stepped on the scale, she didn’t say anything for thirty seconds or so, then says, “Can this be right?”

I was like, “Yes, I know I gained. I think I weighed 155 last week.”

She says, “That’s not what it says here.” I peer over her shoulder and see that I weighed 153.8 last week.

“Well, that’s about a 5 pound gain,” I say.

<More later… I’m in training.>

So? What happened?
