I surpassed my 5% goal!

Sorry...I started writing this blog Wednesday after I weighed in, but I got so wrapped up in cooking and baking that the blog went by the wayside...sorry! Anyway....here's what I wrote...



I won't be able to attend my regular meeting today because I'm not scheduled to work until 4:30 (the meeting's at 3:00...not gonna happen) ...so I went to the local WW office today to weigh in and attend the meeting there. I'm probably going to be going to the WW office rather than weighing in at work since I don't work until later now because of my "pick up Diana from school" schedule. But anyway....

I usually weigh myself at home, and I know my home scale is different from the WW scale. Something didn't trigger in my head right today though. I stepped on the scale at WW and I thought I had gained....turns out I **lost** 2.9, bringing me to a weight loss o 15.5 lbs in 7 weeks!


Yea, I was pretty psyched about the loss....so psyched, in fact, that I did an impromptu fashion show for Jay and Diana in the afternoon. Know what fits? The dress I wore on my first date with Jay! It's a *little* snug right now, but I totally got it on! Same for the sundress I was wearing the summer of 1999! The sucky thing is that I have to go thru that closet and see if anything is still in fashion! lol

I'm still here!

I know I haven't blogged in a bit, but it's not because I'm not on plan...I totally am!!

So, I'm happy to report that I've lost 10.2 pounds in 4 weeks. Weigh in is tomorrow...we'll see! I haven't been as diligent with my journaling, and I know how important it is. But, I've still been hyper-aware of what I'm eating and what choices I'm making.

I have also been on the bike twice. It's just hard finding the time to fit that into the day. Hopefully, with Diana back to school and if my schedule gets fixed, I'll be able to bike during the day. Ugh, my work schedule! That's a whole 'nother story :S Not happy with that part of my life right now, but I'm not going to let that derail my weight loss.

I've been told by quite a few people now that they can see the difference in my body. Truth be told, I don't notice it that much, except when trying on clothes. Holy crap! I FINALLY wore the capris I was wearing the summer before I had Diana. Those pants haven't fit me in SEVEN years! What a great feeling, not gonna lie! Also, my gut doesn't rub on the steering wheel....in fact, it's nowhere near the steering wheel! How can that be? Oh, and are you supposed to be able to remove your jeans without unzipping or unbuttoning? Yea, little awkward having to pull up my pants every 15 minutes :S

I'm still struggling with planning ahead for my lunches at work. It's something I know I need to do, but do not do often enough. That said, I've already planned tomorrow's lunch :) yay me!!

Guess that's it for now....I should try to get some rest or something!
