I went to my weigh in this week and I am 1 pound away from my goal weight... that was 1 week before I turn 31!!! When I lose that 1 pound next week & make my goal -on my 31st birthday, I will have lost 31 pounds since joining Weight Watchers!! Another cool thing =) I'm so estatic about this. Not to mention beaming with pride. I never thought I'd be here... actually accomplishing a long term goal especially as tremendous as weight loss. Now comes the really scary part- maintaining my weight loss. I've lost weight before but never tried to keep it off. I'd do what I had to and lose 5 pounds and then go back to my old ways. Now mind you, I haven't given up chocolate or fast food (all this would be a hundred times easier on me if I could!) but I also can't go back to my old habits. Luckily I've established some new habits...
RUNNING! Who'd of thought?!? I LOVE it and plan to keep at it for years. My biggest issue is making the time for me to do it. I can't wait until it's nicer out & I can do it outside. I really have a 2 mile treadmill limit. Then I'm bored and wishing it would end soon since I've gone nowhere!
The Wii Fit... I play the Wii more than Kevin does these days =) I also kicked his butt at Wii Sports Boxing, thanks to my practice on the Fit. My balance has improved a lot and my flexibility is improving. I love doing the yoga! Every family needs a Wii & every mom a Wii Fit!
I love fruit. I'm on a grocery budget and have had to do some adjusting to afford the fresh fruit but it's so worth it! We go through a crate of Clemintines a week. I can't wait for Watermelon to come in season (it's a lot cheaper too!). I always try to keep fruit on hand... I'm also throwing less & less away due to rotting!!
I love to try new recipes. Thankfully I have a great leader at Weight Watchers, Janet, who gives out great recipes for us to try. The Mexican Chicken is to die for! I could eat it all myself =) My family also loves the Cheesy Veggie Soup... even Kevin & he hardly likes any veggies!
I think I can safely affirm that "30 was my year!!" Being in my 30's is proving to be a great thing!
