baffle N0. 3 Weightloss

So...i know I'm a little behind here. Things were crazy around here for min. So maybe i should say i will fit in as many things that are baffling this month instead of posting everyday. And my daughter came home from college and I let her talk me into braiding her hair. It took me 10hrs. I broke that down into the whole weekend. I really really really didn't want to do her hair. I haven't done braids on anybody in about 4yrs. So i knew my speed would not be what it used to be. But I did it ppl. 10 hrs. Normally would have took me about 5. But any hoooooo.


Ok, todays bafflement is about weight loss. Now see I lost weight about 1 1/2 ago. 35pds. It was by no means easy. but i kept it off just that long. But then I had surgery. I had 6week bed rest and 4 weeks of restriction. I gained all the weight back and 6 more. I swear i am having the hardest, seem like even harder time to get this weight off. I am up and down. Lost 5 then 3 then gain 3 then lost 2 then gain 3..then lost 3.You get the point. So i really tried to step it up a little more and i added using 5 pd weights and i walked the treadmill at the apartment gym in the morning. Then i would walk 3 miles with Leslie Sansone in the afternoon(love her). I did this for 6 days. I was sooo sure i had lost at least 5 pds. So i go into weight watchers and that dangnab scale said i gained 1pd. I was devastated. I worked out even when i was super tired. And  i watched everything i ate. They said i must have gained muscle. Before i knew i said screw muscle i want that number to go down. The guy at the desk blinked a couple of times and said hang in there..we had a couple of seconds of a stare down because even that i didn't want to hear. I think i even shredded some tears as i walked away.
Well I weigh in tomorrow and i really hope to see some weight loss. I need to see a weight loss. I did work out everyday except for sat. and each day i only worked out 1x. I did want to go real hard and i don't want to making working out a chore. I watched what i ate too. I know muscle weighs more than fat. I know it takes time. I know you have to put in the work and the discipline. I know men lose faster than women. I know all this and much much more. What The Heck. I am just baffled at why this time seems harder to lose just 35 freakin pounds. I'm just saying.
