5%!!!!!

I reached my first mini-goal!!! I have lost over 5% of my starting weight. I was expecting a loss today, and I was hoping to get another 5 pound sticker. Well, I got my sticker, but I also got my 5% sticker too!!!! Yay!!!

I lost 5 pounds in a week. I think it has something to do that I am over my period and ate pretty well this week. I even went out to lunch today at Applebees, and had a delicious 8 point meal, and it was steak!!! I didn't think I was going to do that well!

To be perfectly honest, I wonder if it isn't due to the fact that I ate a lot of fiber yesterday. (The Benefiber kind.) I have a problem going sometimes and need to take some additional fiber. Well, I took some the day before and it didn't work, so I took some more (and more) and it finally worked today.

Or is it the fact that I am staying, usually, well below my point values for the day? The fact that I exercised twice in one week? I dunno? I don't care as long as it wasn't a scale issue again and I don't gain next week.

Next post - this week's WW challenge and how in the heck am I going to overcome it?

  2. Sandy - thanks for being there! It was nice to share it with someone, especially the someone who motivated me to go to WW in the first place.
