Weigh-in: Week 104
TWO YEAR ANNIVERSARY!
I have been on Weight-Watchers for two years and celebrated today by having my 6th loss in a row. It was not a dramatic one, but every loss is big to me now. I’m only 3.2 pounds away from 50 pounds by summer (and only two weeks left to do it). My leader was ecstatic at the continued losses. However, I had also sent her a link to my post on Fatbloggers.net showing the old me and the new me and she was floored. She almost couldn’t remember the old me. She insisted I bring the old picture to the next meeting.
I have to say that I was surprised at the loss. I had not made good choices this weekend, but I guess they were tempered with the good choices I made most of the rest of the week along with getting back to working out after our trip (which reminds me that I’m still missing two days of posts on that). I did cut back on sweets, but so much that I ended up having too much on both days of the weekend when we had our normal Sabbath service and then Pentecost on Sunday (with the usual potluck).
I also hate to say that my workout buddy quit today. He said he has so much going on right now that he won’t be doing any more workouts. This saddened me and liberated me at the same time. I am no longer tied down to a specific workout time and having to coordinate workouts around meetings and conference calls between the both of us. This brings me to my next piece of news.
Starting tomorrow morning, Amy and I will be getting up an hour earlier Monday through Thursday to go workout at our respective company exercise rooms before we start our work day. This will free up our lunch time for better things (such as lunch) and it’ll keep us both sticking to a program of exercise. We’re both kinda excited and looking forward to starting tomorrow. The bonus is that we try it out for just two days this week and then we have a breather before we dive into four days a week next week.
We also got our first delivery from the farmer’s co-op we joined this past week. It made us clean out the fridge and junk some old stuff and make room for celery, two heads of lettuce, spinach, radishes, two cucumbers, four tomatoes, two bags of carrots, 4 red onions, a pound or so of yams, 6 pluots, a bag of valencia oranges, a cantaloupe, box of strawberries, and 8 bananas. It was a lot for $50 and all of it was organic and farm-raised. We didn’t have to worry about the tomatoes since we knew the source was not the same as what you got in the stores.
Which reminds me, it was interesting having Taco Bell today with no tomatoes. That was dinner after our weigh-in.
Well, it has been an exciting day and I’ve marked the day with a new photoset on my Weight-Loss Tracker page showing the latest me.
