December 2, 2000
I thought I would be more frustrated after having another small underseverd gain at the scale.....but I guess I really have learned alot. I was up .8 yesterday which was even more aggrivating because it is my third gain in a row. A total of 1.8 pounds UP over my last three weigh-ins! I feel it all over and everyone else seems to be noticing the inches coming off so that's a good sign!
A couple of weeks ago I said the heck with the scale and picked my weights back up again. I love how they help to shape my body....although I hate what they do to the scale. I promised myself not to let it get to me ......so I wont. In fact, i've scheduled a massage for next week as a way to reward myself for working so hard. I feel like i'm being tested...that's ok though, I have no doubt i'll win!
I spent ALOT of time walking outdoors last week. I had many successes that I am very proud of! Being that it was Thanksgiving wasn't such a problem for me...I always seem to do better under pressure actually. I had a nice 3 mile walk before dinner...went to the cemetary while I was out by myself to 'see' my dad and our son, Tyler, it helps me alot to remember where much of my strength comes from. I thought alot about all of the things I am most grateful for...it was so refreshing. We ate at mom's so it was even easier to stay OP because she's a WW too. She made most of the meal...and I made the pumpkin mousse pie (which was great) and a couple other desserts that went over well. I stuck right to my points....stayed in my jeans all day and didn't stuff myself! Ahhh success!
I continued to walk outside on the days that followed....two days this week I did six miles each day! I'm loving my books on tape...they are a nice change of pace. Today Mark and I went to a local athletic club (gym). It was our first time working out there. I think I hit just about every machine and worked every muscle in my body ...and I loved it! We're going to make a habit out of going together when he's home from work and the kids are at school. I bet i'm sore tomorrow but it was FUN! I can still tell i'm shrinking and that motivates me so much.....I think maybe i'll bury the scale in the back yard tho! : )
The Duchess is coming out with a new book soon and i'm pleased to say that our leader, Andrea, will have a part in it! We also found out last night that Andrea will be doing a WW meeting of sorts with the Duchess somewhere in our area....how exciting! You know i'll be there too! I learned a bit about the changes to the WW program at our meeting as well. We will get all of our new information the week of December 10th...but I started gearing up for some of the changes already. I remember when we switched over to the points system and how nervous I was about it.....I learned my lesson that time and am psyched to have something new to help me along now! Our meeting location is also moving....not too far from where it is now but it's another change...and I welcome it.
I'm in the process of adding alot to the site. I took off the bit about me from the front and added the 'about me' page. It was actually a bio I had written for an article I did and thought I would put it here for those who want to know more about me. I've also taken off my weigh-in box and just put a link to my journal along with the other links to the site. There are a few reasons for this....all well intended. I will always let you know how weigh-in goes tho, and you can always look in on me in the forum where I check-in every day. I am still adding a whole bunch of recipes, including many that alot of you were nice enough to send me...and i'm working on my latest reflection...as well as a few other new pages. So much to do......so little time!
I was reminded by a friend of something I had said a while back......
'The only person who can stop me is ME.....and I can take her!'
How very true that is!
Have a great week!
