Hey y'all!
Oh MY. That's all I have to say about last night. (uncomfortable/painful dental work after school plus a box of chocolates from my students plus some wine = I used a lot of my Weekly Points last night)
We all know that I am on Weight Watchers. Well, I had my first semi-disappointment this past week. I weigh in on Thursdays. This was my 6th weigh-in. At my 5th weigh-in, I was down 13.8 pounds from my starting weight. I was REALLY hoping this week I would get to an even 15.
Unfortunately, I didn't make my small goal-- but I still lost 0.6 to get to -14.4. That is still good and I know that I have worked pretty hard to change the way that I eat so that I am eating better and with portion control. Maybe next week I'll be at 15!
Now it's time for me to kick off the exercise part to continue to my 30 pound weight loss goal. I am almost halfway there. But I won't get there unless I incoporate more exercise and push myself.
A while ago I had a goal to do a 10K in May. It's possible that I continue to train for that, but I'm thinking I may start jogging to do some smaller 5K races. I'm also going back to soccer. I'll be on two teams this spring so I'll again be doing the sport I love.
I can't get lazy now. Yes, I lost some weight by changing the way that I eat, but I HAVE TO EXERCISE and I need you guys' support. Please!

My dad always says, "A loss is a loss". I know it sucks when you don't see the loss that you had hoped for or expected, but 14.4 pounds is incredible! AND, this is sparking your thinking on what changes may need to be made to make sure you don't plateau. You are inspiring me!
ReplyDeleteT-Tapp on Monday! I'm also doing the Couch to 5K, so maybe once I get better at jogging, we could jog together?
