Back on Plan

Wooo Hooo, I lost 3.4 pounds this week!!!!!

I went into todays meeting with this thought, "It's not if but how much weight I lost this week!"

I was so good this week, I stayed on plan, I worked out 2 times like I said I was going to, and I resisted temptations. I used my mantra, my anchors, whatever you want to call them.

Do I want to eat that or do I want to be skinny? Skinny won and I am 2.8 pounds away from my wedding weight. I am 0.4 pounds away from another 5 pound star, so my total lost is 34.6. And I am feeling it.

I was in class the other night and was walking into one of the buildings and I caught a glimpse of myself in the reflection in the glass. I couldn't believe what I saw, COLLARBONES!!!!!! I saw collarbones in the light. I saw my long neck (I will forever have a waddle, genetics suck.) But I actually felt pretty.

We went to the beach today. I didn't really want to go, since I woke up with a nightmare that left me in a REALLY bad mood. But, I went, and I ended up running around with my kids on the beach while John played caveman and started a camp fire. I literally ran! Me, the woman who feels like a huge cow when she runs, ran after her kids today, playing catch and tag and racing.

So, if you couldn't tell by the tone, I am back on plan. I input my weight tonight and lost another daily point, oh, well, just means I am getting closer to my ultimate goal. I feel better (could that be the endorphins from actually working out? I don't know, but I am going to wake up with John tomorrow and work out and see.)

Here's to a successful week and I'll post and let you know how things are going.

PS - Thalassa - can't wait to see you and catch up, welcome back!!
Bernie - you can do it girl!! I promise, 2 more workouts this week
Sandy - we'll do our best not to touch our uh-oh/weekly points, if I do, I promise I'll earn enough activity points in that same day to cover them all.
Kourtney - thanks for being an awesome leader, thanks for the encouragement tonight, it really helped
