The truth will set me free

I have something I want to share with you.On Sunday's my partner and I weight in. I have a scale that not only tells you how much you weigh but what your body fat is, water content, bone mass etc.This Sunday was a disaster for me on the scale.I thought I had had a great week but I hadn't lost one single pound!I said all the right things to my partner but deep down inside I felt I had failed.For years I refused to have a scale in the house just because of such results.Along comes Monday and Tuesday and I find myself sneaking small snacks.A couple of M&M's,a bite of that chocolate chip muffin... you get the picture.It ground to a stop upon reading a message from Master Brinker to his Black belts.(I love feeling a part of this group)He has in trusted us with a very difficult challenge and I hadn't even started and already I was letting him and myself and I guess my partner down.So I have had to really dig deep and find the reasons I took on this challenge to begin with. I think I will be alright now.I felt like if I told you of my slip maybe it won't happen again for a long while.I would like to say never again but I know that would not be true.Here's to a new start...
