Yippee!  It’s official, I’ve hit the 10 lb milestone.  I weighed in today at our WW meeting, 163.4 lbs.  I’m down 11.6 lbs  from 9 weeks ago, when I first started the WW program. 
Amazingly enough, I’m almost down to where I was when we got married last year.  Our first anniversary is this weekend & it feels great to […]

I did the whole emotional eating thing this afternoon at lunch.  It could have been worse but really it only made me feel miserable.  I don’t know why I do that. 
I found that when I’m in my worry wort phase I’ll either eat nothing or everything.  Lunch was a little bit of both.  At first […]

The crab salad I had for lunch has me feeling crabby this afternoon.  I had a client luncheon and choose the mixed green salad with crab, artichoke hearts, and a light citrus vinaigrette from the restaurant.  I have no idea how many points the lunch cost me - I’m guesstimating around 10 points.  I struggle with eating out (the points are […]

 
As many of you know Friday was my first golf tournament.  It turned out great and so did the team photo!  It’s the first picture of myself in a long time that I’ve actually felt good about.  I was pleased to see that I am looking slimmer!  ;)  WW’s is starting to pay off!  Not only am I feeling […]

             
It’s amazing how a little positive thinking and visualization will up the anti on things!  I accepted a new position within my company a couple of months ago and have been working really hard to prove I am worth every inch/penny of their investment.  
Last week I had two customers tell my bosses I deserved a raise […]

I am completely ravenous today.  One would think I hadn’t eaten in a week, which is so far from reality.  I’m trying to snack on healthy items but man what I wouldn’t give to sit down with slab of pizza right now!  Okay, not really… I’m not actually in the pizza mode but I would love to scarf […]

 
I’m a little confused today and seem to be battling the numerical side of things.  I had a great couple of runs yesterday and this morning I topped the charts.  We cruised through our usual neighborhood run.  I didn’t even feel like we were pushing at all, it felt great!  Overall I’m feeling lighter, faster, and physically much better!  […]

Well my weekend of working out the kinks ended up being a weekend of the kinks in more ways than one.  I had anticipated having a free weekend to work on myself with time to refocus my thoughts, directions, and motivation.  Then the blow-up happened…
It all started with a dinner invitation extended to our neighbors, a […]

and my ramblings…  I’m one of those self improvement types and receive regular motivational emails at work.  I can’t help myself!  I wanted to share today’s quote that came in, which ironically relates to my issue of Diet Anger:
Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; […]

I am pleased to say that today at WI, I lost all that I gained the prior week.  I was very happy to see the pounds melt away again.  I am exactly where I was two weeks ago and while I wish there was a little added bonus in there, I can honestly say I’m satisfied.  How […]
