I can see the finish line

Diet bet is over tomorrow.  As of this morning I was 361.8, I needed to be at 362.5 to win.  Nervous, but happy I finally got to win one.  With that being said, I won't be doing a dietbet next month. I feel like I have an unhealthy obsession with the scale and I was starting to try and starve myself to my goal weight (359). I was talking with a co-worker who said he didn't get on the scale just stayed focused for a month.  I was jealous.  I get up every morning and weigh myself 2-3 times to see how low I can get.

Daily Burn...sigh. I remember why I quit twice before.  I'm not a beginner but I still need to modify certain things (planks, push-up) other things squat with over head press I actually have moved from 5lb to 8lb weights.  This means I'm in a weird place.  I joined daily burn again really for the bob harper (black fire) work out.  I think I must have hit my head or something.
