But I can deal with it because at least one of them is at a 7 and everything isn't at a 10, if that makes sense.
Might not make sense to you because you don't deal with it, but mm.
So when we see our weight fluctuate, when we get on the scale, we, we have a lot of doctor's appointments, so we go to the doctor.
We get on the scale, and they like, "275 pounds." Be like, "Huh? You sure that's what it say?" Now, in our heart of hearts, we know that we've gained all this weight.
