It all evens out...

Finally feel like I am back on track!  Lost 1.2 this week, which I find ironic that in the last 2 weeks I gained 0.8 and then 0.4 and this week lost the total of those two.  So I guess it all evens out.  It made me happy to see a loss.  I was a little discouraged about the gains but owned them and took each day as new!  I made it through my best friends wedding, company in town from ATL, NYC, DC & Jersey, and several meals that I was invited over for and a cookout!  The loss of 1.2 puts me back at 12 pounds lost.  Now if I could just hit the 15 number soon that will be my 5% goal and then on to the 10% goal.  I know a lot of what I struggle with comes from within my own head.  And I often feel like I am sabotaging myself.  But I just need to focus on the end game.

Today at my Weight Watchers meeting we celebrated a weight loss of 100 pounds for one of the gals in our group.  It took her one year to lose it and she has more to lose.  It made me cry, that's where I want to be.  I have a little over 100 pounds to go, I cant WAIT to get there!  But I know I have to, its going to take a long time so I just need to be patient!

In the meantime I have so much encouragement!  From my sister who is rockin it out, to my boy Todd who knocks my socks off dropping like 10 pounds every week (YOU ARE A MACHINE TODD) and my girl Arlene who never ceases to amaze me with her encouragement, love and support!  I know that if I didn't have you guys in my life (and ear everyday) I would not be as successful!  Thank you!!!

I started walking/running yesterday.  I gotta get ready for this 5K.  I am so excited!  We have about 16 people on our team and its going to be amazing!!!  Only 6 more weeks to go!

Well off to bed.  I need to get some rest as I have a 10 hour work day tomorrow and lots of preparations for a camping party we are having for a dozen little girls Friday night......  Yes, we are taking 12 girls camping... in my BFF's backyard!  Tents, campfire, hot dogs, s'mores, songs...  its going to be insane!

Thank you for your love, support, encouragement and advice!  It keeps me going, because I am not about to give up!!!!!  Love you all,
