Excitement

I just got back from weight watchers and lost 3 lbs this week, down a total 7.2!!! I am so excited. I tried a few different things this week. I got almonds to snack on and that was a nice little change. Tried to drink more water and not eat too lat at night. I had such a sense of accomplishment and feel like I can really do it. I got myself one of the spiral bound trackers, which I think help me better with tracking my points. That is my one big goal this week. Even if I screw up, I want to write down everything I eat. I NEED to do that to ensure my success. I already know that when I don't do it, I let things slide.

So, here's to TRACKING my points and another good week!!

I CAN DO IT, I CAN DO IT, I CAN DO IT, I WILL DO IT!!!

what am I doing?

So why do I feel compelled to eat a cup of ice cream while I watch Biggest Loser?

I felt bad because they had to do a one mile race. There was mom on there my same age that had to be rushed to the hospital at the end of the race. She started off really strong, but then had to crawl toward the end, and ended up not breathing and was medivaced out....woah....made me think! I do know I have exercised on and off, and I did complete a5k back in May, so I wouldn't have been that bad; but I have lost the endurance I used to have when I was working out. Makes me want to work out more-if I could only get up in the morning. I am having my knee looked at this week as it is giving me lots of problems, and was told to swim and do the elliptical trainer. Maybe now Darin will let me get one!! I used and elliptical and swam the whole time I was losing my weight.

Really I need Bob and Jillian. If only I had someone to watch the kids while I was on the show.....
