Well today was my first weigh in since joining Weight Watchers. I was expecting 3 or 4lbs loss since I had checked at the gym...But instead I lost...
POUNDS!
Yes you read that right...**I** lost 8lbs in one week. I didn't do anything but count my points, "pay my bills" and exercise 3x's this week. I asked the lady if it was right, if the scale was calibrated. I am in shock. I was like I want to be in ONEderland in 2 months because I had only planned to lose 2lbs a week, I lost all I wanted to lose this month IN a week! I'm blown away. I feel like I've lost a little. My pants fit a little different but I just thought it was because they were stretch. But maybe it was a real difference!
I know not to expect that big of a weight loss every week. But that is such a motivator! I was skeptical of WW at first, just trying it because I was at a breaking point. THANK GOD I did! If I just lose 1/2 of that this week I'll be ecstatic!
Losing 8lbs means I'm down to 208lbs! No 2-1-something. 8 more pounds to ONEderland! I'm so focused. This big of a loss means I have to re-do my points, my leader was so proud of me. She said "I never lost that much in one week." I was really proud of myself. And God walked me through this whole week. Because yall know how confused and how I was struggling in the beginning. BUT I MADE IT! I know it's just a week but I didn't think I would make it a week. So I'm pumped! This week I expect nothing but greater lost.
And the lady forgot to to announce my lost AND give me my 5 point star at the meeting. I made sure to tell her afterwards, I worked hard for those 8lbs! I also bought some 1 point peanut butter bars and fruit things. They were good, they had taste testers at the last meeting.
Girl I am so proud of you! Now I have hopes for my next weigh in! However I would be thrilled if I only lost 2. Anyhow back to you, see what determination and will power can get you? You get a whole 8 pound loss in return. That is a reward in itself no matter what you had to do to get that reward! Go Girl and keep it up! Here is to a great week and even more weight loss! Have a good one,
POUNDS!
