Before After

Surprise, surprise!

So, I was anxiously awaiting my turn at the scale.  It seemed to take forever for the line to move forward.  Finally, I wobble up to the scale, take off my shoes, put the paper towel down, step on the scale and wait.  Now that everything is computerized they don't write anything down and don't say anything until that little sticker prints out.  I'm standing there, holding my breath while she pulls the sticker off the printer and starts to put it in my book.  She gets this gastly look on her face and says "oh no" and I PANIC!  F*$^% - I knew I didn't lose much, but did I actually GAIN?!?!  She looks up from the sticker and says "you were this close to reaching 10 pounds - but you lost 2 so good for you!" 
 
Whew!  Talk about a HUGE sigh of relief!  So now I'm down 9.2 pounds.... a mere 0.8 from the first 10 of the 120 I need to lose.  I'm on my way girls!!!

Congrats to you too!

Thanks for your encouragement! Looks like you're doing well too. Congrats on your loss of 2 lbs. That's really good. I am sometimes bummed because I don't get bigger losses, but I remind myself that it's a lifestyle change and my hope is that the slower I lose, the better chance I have to keep it off for the rest of my life. Keep up the good work!!

GREAT!

Great job 

I remember those feelings when I stepped on the WW meeting scales. Felt like I was waiting for the results of a test.  I started my weight loss with WW and I will continue to say, I couldn't have done it without them.  I wish they were cheaper because I would continue.

Keep up the good work!!!

Woohoo!!!

How awesome is that!  Just when you thought it was going to be a maintain or a gain!  Fooled you!
 
Let's see... the new Mexican place in PM.  I remember where the MG was.  We use to go to the restaurant just a little further up the street, on the right.  Can't remember the name (that will now drive me crazy for the rest of the day!!), there's another one in the area.  I use to love it but it wasn't terribly points friendly (of course neither was MG!). [ googled it... Dawson's!  Nice atmosphere, but not calorie conscious!  Good for a drink!]
 
Anyway, wishing you a great weekend, and congrats on your continued success on this journey!  = )
