I got my 10% last night!

So last night was kind of fun at the WW meeting.  My aunt that has been doing this with me and I both got our 10% awards.  Boy, it felt good to achieve my first goal.  I think that this should help give me the strength to endure the four Easter baskets full of goodies that will be at the house on Sunday.  Easter candy is my favorite and I will need all the strength I can get.  I survived the onslaught of relatives and kept pretty good.  We did go down on the desert and have a hot dog roast with chips and s'mores.  I didn't want to be "on a diet" in front of everyone so I just ate what everyone else was having.  My weight did go up .2 pounds at weigh-in that week but,  this week it went down 2.4.   I hope that it is a sign of things to come.  That I can eat what everyone else does and still control it to  some degree. 

Another big achievement this week:  I started WEEK THREE of the Couch to 5K podcast running program.  There were two three minute runs this week.  While running, I just thought of the times in school where they make you run a mile.  I concentrated on that through the running portion and before I knew it I was done.  I am sure that I can move up to the five minute runs next week without any problems.  What a great feeling that was.  The manager at Curves took my measurements yesterday and kept going on and on about how good and dedicated I have been since I joined.  This is pretty incredible for me.  If I can do it ANYONE can and that is the truth. 

We are on Spring Break and the girls and I are heading to the bowling alley for some fun.  Happy Easter Everyone!
