Surprising Weigh-In

Last week I had mentioned that I was expecting an unpleasant weigh-in. Between the TOM, adding more exercise, and my over-indulgence of some chocolate to put the PMS monster to rest, I was expecting to be up on Saturday at my weigh-in. I was shocked to be 0.2 down! ::::GASP:::: It was the pure fact that I was down. Makes me really regret the chocolate that I ate. Stink. I wonder how much more I could have been down. Oh well.
I have to weigh-in on Friday morning because I will be out of town Saturday. That means one less day to work on a great weigh-in. My husband, Chris, is running in the Indianapolis Mini Marathon. He lost over 50 pounds by running and cutting out pop. I am so proud of him. This is only the second time I have been able to go down & watch him race. We are going down the night before and staying in Indy. So it will be a nice short little break.
Last week I burnt 600 calories in 3 workouts. I hope to break that this week. I worked out on Saturday. So I am headed in the right direction.
“It is our attitude at the beginning of a difficult undertaking which, more than anything else, will determine its outcome.”

This is the quote that my Weight Watcher challenge group has today. I thought it was really good. I think that is one thing that has helped me be successful with Weight Watchers this time. I have said many times before that I had tried countless times in the past. Never to lose the weight. I know that my attitude was different this time. I think of it as a life-style not a diet. Something that I will do the rest of my life. A way that I can live. Not some stinkin’ diet that doesn’t work.
OK. That is enough. I have an appointment that I need to get ready for.
