Last week’s weight: 153.4
Today’s scale reading: 152.8
down .6
I’ll take it (:

Not quite sure about the new community… it’s going to take some getting used to…
does anyone here know how you can invite friends if you dont’ know their email address??
I have all these people here on my blog, whose blogs I read… and I don’t know how to find them on the new community…

Today is day one of Allison and my bet. It’s going to take an adjustment to my eating habits that I have allowed to slip.. but it’s a much needed adjustment! I knew I’d prob weigh in high today, and I’m simply excited to see that number start dropping again. This morning the scale read 153.2 - about 4 lbs up from my lowest weight thus far, and about 1 up from last week.

..

Yep. That’s what I thought as I stepped on our new Weight Watchers scale this morning.  138.4! Could it be??? I lost 10 lbs this week! actually 14! Woo hoo!!

ha.

Obviously there’s something wrong w/ our scale.  I called DH. He doesn’t have the receipt or even the box.  I’m wondering if it could be off because we’ve had it in our van and traveling back and forth between our house the the house we’re housesitting at??!?! Maybe there’s a way to reset it?? IDK.  Anyone know??

If not then I’m going to go to Fred Myers and just see what they can do.  Maybe they would trade it for the same one and I could give them the box.  Of course if it has the same problem then what??? SO DUMB. It is a $32 scale.  I’d expect this on a $15.00 one, and maybe $20…. but not for what we paid. [sigh]

Needless to say… I am back to tracking points and posting them on my blog.  I have been WAY too lax w/ that… and look where it got me (: a 10 lb loss! tee hee!

152.4

up a little over 2 lbs. don’t want this. won’t have it. I needed this reality check.

now I’m going to do something about it!

Down 1.4

I confess. I was bummed after being down 2.8 yesterday at my mom’s.  Then TOM came and visited this afternoon, and I fully understood (: and I”m looking forward to next weeks’ WI! I bet I’ll be down again! So I’m happy overall (:

**1st of all** Thanks for all the well wishes for DD and more sleep for me! (; She is on the mend (cross my fingers) and I’m planning on catching up on exercise and sleep this weekend!

Fell off the eating wagon yesterday at the inlaws. I ate too much chocolate. Came home had a sensible dinner. DH wanted Coldstone Icecream. I made a good choice there.. but it didn’t taste good and I wish I just wouldn’t have even gone. (Well honestly, last night, I wished I would have just gotten real ice cream instead of that fake stuff… yuck! ) Today is a new day… weighing in up .6 from 2 weeks ago… when I was almost sure I’d be down I didn’t get all my water in yesterday and that def. had something to do w/ my WI, but it’s besides the point… I would have been down if I hadn’t eaten over my flex points and out of control at various points last week. Today’s a new day (did I already say that??!) and I’m doing well. I have some time to sit down and menu-plan (next on my agenda) and I plan to have an incredible OP week! So all you fellow bloggers, stay tuned! :8

Last week’s Scale Reading: 154.2 oops typo 152.4

Today’s Scale Reading 150.0  Woo hoo!!! Down 2.4! Finally! Break through!!! I am feeling it too!  And it feels great….

To re-cap… I have been stuck at/ fluctuating between… 152.4 and 156 since THANKSGIVING! It’s been a long time!  I knew CORE was what I needed this week.  I could just feel it kicking in!

Today I got my 16 week key ring and my 10% key chain so that was cool too! A fun way to really feel the success! (I had technically hit my own personal 10% last month… but I’m 2 lbs lower than my WW book since I lost it on my own before starting).  Grand Total on WW: 18  lbs… Grand total total: 20 lbs!!! That’s a great feeling! 10 more lbs before I will allow myself to start trying to conceive! That is soooo close! (:
