I am slowly watching the pounds disappear.  I hope wherever they go, they never come back again.

I had weigh in yesterday and I am happy to say even though it is that time of the month I still pulled off a loss. 

Down another 1.4 for a total of 16.4 and less than six pounds from my 10% weight loss.

I will soon be entering Onederland and am enjoying the view.

People are really taking notice and women are asking me how I am doing it.  I proudly say, “Weight Watchers, you should give it a try.  It is a great program.”

Lost 4 pounds. Yippee Skippee!

7.1 to get to 10% goal

6.1 to get me to Onederland

Not losing as much or as fast as some, but I know the slower it comes off the easier it will be to keep off.

I love, love, love WW.

I have been extremely stressed over the past few weeks, and I guess my gain is a result of not concentrating on the plan like I should.  I gained one pound which leaves me with a total loss to date of 11 pounds.  My week starts over today, so I will just get back on track and try again.

I was looking at the WW Weight Tracker and that is what it says I have lost.  12 Pounds doesn’t seem like much when you have 100 or so to lose, but it is amazing how much I can already tell.  My mom said she could tell something was different last time she saw me but couldn’t put her finger on it until my dad told her the weight loss was really showing in my face.  I never thought I would be so happy to see the cleft in my chin again.

I am trying to stay on plan as much as possible, but I still enjoy what I eat.  It is amazing what WW teaches you.

I weighed in last night at 209, that is a total loss of 12 pounds, after a gain last week I was glad to see a loss of 3.2 pounds.  I didn’t stay on plan or even track that great this week, but I was still very careful.

My mom told me that my sister is going to have weight loss surgery (gastric bypass I believe).  While I am worried about her, I am hopeful for her success.  I like that we are both taking control of our lives and our weights so we can be healthy for our families.

Work has been way busy and so has life in general.  I do have good news though, yesterdays weigh in showed a 4.4# drop.  for a total of 9.6# lost to date.  Not bad, 9.6 in five weeks.

I will try to post an update tomorrow.

No seriously, I lost 5.2 pounds total, which is the equivalent of a sack of potatoes.  My weight loss for this week was 1.4 pounds.  Yay Me!

I really was worried about this week after being sick on Thursday and Friday and not doing well on plan on Saturday and Sunday.  I guess I did better than I thought.

 I still have not found the motivation to start exercising yet.  Maybe this weekend I will find it.

On Wednesday, March 26th, 2008 I weighed in at 217.2 which was .4 loss for the week, for a total of 3.8.

Wednesday after weigh in my body rebelled.  I wasn’t feeling so good, and when I woke up Thursday I was miserable.  I went to the Doctor (which I rarely do) and I was told it was strep.  Did you know most adults don’t commonly get strep…I think my body didn’t receive that memo.  So Thursday and Friday I was rather wimpy.  Saturday was a little better and Sunday was an improvement.  I have been very off plan this weekend but am back on track today.  I hope I haven’t messed up too much by being sick.

Okay, here are my stats and goals for weight loss as of today.  I weigh in tonight so I hope the 3.4 goes up.  These are the goals that WW wants us to set.  I don’t know if 126 is realistic for me or not, but I am a stubborn child and will keep trying as long and as hard as I can.

I will have rewards for my goals which include a manicure when I hit my 10% goal, a pair of jeans from my mom when I drop two sizes, a special treat from my husband when I reach 175, and the satisfaction of success throughout my journey.
