Today was a new beginning.
I attended my WW meeting and weighed in. I haven't been there for a month. The two months before that I was bouncing up and down and not really doing much anyway. So I took a little vacation.
Anyways, I weighed in at 179.4. That is 6.2 above my very lowest weight in WW yet of 173.2. So believe it or not I was happy. I was expecting so much worse. I mean, yeah that's bad. But really, I've lost that much in a week once or twice before. So it won't be hard to recover.
I was also pleased that I didn't go over 180. Getting below 180 was a really important milestone for me in my weight loss. That meant I was more in my normal range of weight. Before my pregnancy my highest weight was 183. So to get back below 180 meant I would fit in my usual clothes and look a little more like myself.
I still have quite a ways to go now. I'm 38 pounds down and I have 34 pounds to go. Wish me luck. I know I can do it if I keep working hard. I've come a long way already and I'm not going back.
I guess that's all. I blogged because it really helps me hold my self accountable when I have to blog to you guys about how I'm doing in WW. I mean, who wants to tell everyone what a failure they are?? So guys, help hold me to it. Nobody is doing the program with me anymore so I need some motivation. Remind me every week if I haven't announced my weigh in. I would really appreciate that. And anyone wanting to join with me please do. I could use a partner. People who have partners are more successful than those who go it alone. It's a statistic. My meeting day is not set in stone, so I would be flexible to your schedule. Just let me know. :)

Your doing great. You are what inspired me to join WW in the first place. It's just too expensive for me to do it here. THe mileage PLUS the weekly cost.
You inspire! YAY!
Thank you. And like I said before you should try the online program. I'm thinking about switching to that once school starts since it's so difficult for me to try to make it to meetings when I'm in school. I really want to do good. I'm sick of being frumpy and chunky. I want to feel at least ok about the way I look (because I already know that even if I'm thinner I'll never be completely happy).
When are you supposed to get the internet at home?
haha. spring of 2008.
So I finally checked and in total I gained 9 pounds over my "vacation." It's funny after losing what I did, 9 pounds felt like 20. I'm so proud of you for sticking with it. Believe it or not, I'm proud of myself, too. I stuck with it pretty long for me and then to go back to it is amazing too!
I think I had some sort of exercise epiphany today. Mary was busy so I went alone. It was awesome. So anyway, I'm walking along on the treadmill and suddenly, it felt good! I wasn't just counting down until I could go home. I was enjoying walking along with the music and feeling good. Nerdy, but it felt nice. :)
Also, I don't think I'll be able to swim with you. The only way I would is if I can wear trunks. I'm sorry but I'm just not comfortable at all wearing a suit in front of anyone. Normally Saturday is good for me, expecially around noon. Sunday I normally work so I can go after 3. They do close at 6 on Sundays, too. (Actually 5:45 as I found out.)
Did you find a new partner yet? Don't forget about me. :) Your slacker WW partner.
Hope your day was good.
