I woke up this morning to prepare for the long awaited doctor's appointment. I weighed myself and the scale said 183lbs. Great, I'm actually making progress...or so I thought. Before leaving the house, I wanted to drink some water because I had the feeling that I was going to have to submit a urine sample, but to my surprise the water was not looking at it's normal clear self. This is off topic but, my stupid apartment complex has this funny little habit of cutting off the water at odd times. It occurs multiple times during the year and it frustrates the hell out of me. You can just imagine......whenever they cut the water off for plumbing, I somehow feel like I'm going to die from thirst or that I must shower, brush my teeth, or use the bathroom. Anyways, after my shower complex turned the water back on, the water didn't quite look so clear. It looked kinda murky or cloudy so I decided not to drink it..ugh. Anyways, got to the doctors office and of course, I had to submit a sample. I must say, I could not pee to save my life. I drank like 6 cups of water and I still couldn't muster up a squirt of pee. Before the whole water drinking fiasco, I was weighted and surprisingly the result came to........187lbs!!!! WTF! I was too shocked. Now, the scale that I have at home is pretty accurate so I know something is way off. Even when I weighed myself with my clothes on, I still didn't weight as much. Besides, I didn't have 5lbs worth of clothes on. So, who is really toying around with me?!? This new doctors appointment was kinda upsetting in a way. I didn't pee on time, I got pounds added so I look extra fat, I got poked, I got "gallons" of blood drained, and I didn't even get the prescription that I came to get in the first place. I CAN'T WITH THIS!!!
I wouldn't even worry about the scale like that. Weight fluctuates throughout the day--we're usually at our lightest first thing in the morning--and, as you mentioned, you'd just drunk a bunch of water. I wouldn't be too hard on myself if I were you. (:
