And So It Begins...

Last night, I had my 6-week post partum check-up.  Everything went well, but I didn't get home til almost 7:00.  My original plan for dinner was homemade chicken tenders, a vegetable, and salad. But with it being so late, we ended up doing frozen chicken fries and French fries.  Even though I counted the calories for it, I knew it wasn't the best choice.  I did have my salad with it, though.

Anyway, this morning I stepped on the scale...260.4.  Up .4 pounds from yesterday.  Now I know this doesn't sound like much, but it's still an increase on the scale!  I'm telling myself that I know what did it, I can correct it, it's not that much, I'll probably be back down tomorrow, weight fluctuates day to day...all the things that I know to be true.  But I am gripped with fear that the scale is going to keep climbing up despite my efforts!  And that has me feeling powerless and anxious!
