Reached 5% goal!!!

I am happy to say I reached my 5% weight loss goal this week! I am now down to 237.4. That still hurts but I am so happy to see the number going down! So far I have lost a total of 13.6 pounds. I am feeling better and better each day. I really love this new We!ght Watch-ers plan. For the first time in history I can honestly say I never feel starving or deprived. If I am hungry I have an apple or banana. It truly is a great feeling. I have so much more to go but the bottom line is this is working for me and I am loving every minute of it!

Overdue Update

I am here and doing pretty good. I am down a total of 10.8 pounds. Good news is all of my size 20 pants fit and are even roomy. It is amazing to be able to sit without having pants dig into your stomach!!! The weight is coming off slowly but the good news is I don't feel like I am starving myself. If I lose 1/2 a pound to a pound a week every week then it will take me a little longer to get to goal. I am okay with that as long as I am making changes that I feel I can stick with forever.


That was the problem of years past of dieting. It was all or nothing. Now I feel like there are meals I do better and some I could have done better on. If I mess up a little, I don't freak out, but instead I look to the next meal and plan out how I can do better. I am eating more fruits and vegetables and feeling better than I have for a few years!!! That is what is important.
