weekly weigh-in no. 1

one would think i would've rushed home and posted my first week success last night, but hubby had dinner ready again and asked me to watch TV with him. so, i agreed. after all he had cooked dinner the previous two nights.

so, my first weekly weigh in result:

-3

i was very happy with this number. now, my home scales said i was down -4.8, but - since i weighed in officially at my first WW meeting last Tuesday, I will go with their readings.

wonderful. 

about my first meeting, i might try the earlier meeting or the meeting on Saturday morning. the meeting i attended was an older crowd. all nice enough, the leader included, but i need someone that is so excited and motivational, they could host an info-mercial. i need that to be successful. my leader from years ago was from Argentina, and she was the best. i sucessfully lost 40 lbs and didn't miss a meeting. i heard a little rumor that she is still in the area, perhaps i might find her.

this week's meeting was on motivation. how i needed to hear this. they talked about not loosing sight on how we feel when we first start our journey. the excitement. the feeling when our clothes start fitting better. the happiness that comes from compliments from people noticing our efforts. the excitement when we have during our first losses. each week we are not guaranteed a loss, some weeks, although everything is done perfectly, there could be a small gain. but if we remember the successes and the way all the positives make us feel, we will continue to stay focused.

this week, i will continue writing everything down. i've

really done great with this. journaling your food is the key.

i will make healthy choices this week.

Breakfast yesterday, Fiberone Poptart

3 points

lunch yesterday, was a orange and turkey on wheat.

6 points

Dinner, eh I didn't count points. I figured after a week well done, I splurged and used some of my weekly flex points.

My two weekly goals:

1. Staying motivated
2. Drink water.
