A watched pot never boils

Here is another one of those saying "they" say.  I remember the first time I ever heard that, I was a young girl and I think I was making Macaroni & Cheese for one of the first times by myself and I remember being so frustrated because the water just wouldn't boil.  My mom told me " a watched pot never boils".... since then, I've realized that its not just water that doesn't boil when you want it to , but when you are "waiting" for something, it never seems to come quite as quickly as we want it to. 

The scale is a lot like a "watched pot".  I know that I've been told, only weigh myself once a week, but seriously, how realistic is it to think that after everything I've put myself through to get here, that I will only step on the scale once a week? (It's not , so get over it)...  I literally weigh myself every single day.. I know its not the healthiest thing in the world for me, but I do it.  So - last Sunday, I hinted that the scales had taken a downward trend and I was hoping for exciting news... well they have basically not moved since then!  I'm still waiting!!!! I'll be sure to let you know once its really exciting news.. but for now, I'm just watching the pot!

On a different note, something really upset my stomach today and I haven't been able to keep anything down.  Weird thing is I didn't have anything unusual today.  I hope its not the flu!
