Goal #1... check!

I did it ;) I lost 10% of my weight in 10 weeks! Technically, I lost 10% PLUS 1 pound! I lost 2.4 pounds this week... which I have been trying to do the past 8 weeks- lose 2 lbs. a week (I always stayed at the 1 - 1.5 lb. mark). The best part was- I was the only one in the group to do it! During our meeting, in discussing how I did it, I was the only one that wrote down everything I ate for all 10 weeks (well, minus 1 day... see earlier post!). I think I found the secret to success! This was our last meeting. I think I'm going to join Weight Watchers online to keep me on track. I've done good but I need to be accountable some how. Plus too, I'll be online more so that means more blogging ;)

Let me just state this... it feels damn good to have set a weight loss goal and achieve it! When I first set out on this journey, all I could focus on was the finish line... the final number! Then once I started focusing on the weekly number, it didn't seem so big & daunting. I'm about half-way to where I want to be but I'm not intimidated or overwhelmed any more! This has been so fun & I'm still so pumped to continue on. I'll be blogging more... so until then- love & skinny hugs XoXo
