I weighed in this evening and celebrated another two pound loss. This brings my total loss to seventeen pounds and two ounces.
Oh it is hard to celebrate one pound and two pound losses – I wish I could see five pound losses each and every week! How fast the extra weight would melt away then!
Ah… but I have to be patient and be glad that even at one or two pounds per week – I am shrinking.
So let me report: I feel pretty darned good. I can feel the change in how my clothing fits – especially my intimates.
I have been doing well with Weight Watchers. I am still recording every bite and don’t plan to stop that. Keeping a close eye on my points helps me to manage my nibbling tendencies.
I survived a birthday party, enjoying a small piece of divine chocolate cake without frosting. (Don’t feel bad for me – I didn’t mind it at all.)
I used my Flex Points this week for a yummy visit to the Chinese Buffet. Two Crab Rangoon, two largish chunks of Sesame Chicken plus some white rice, a spring roll and a half dozen friend shrimp made my tummy most happy and I left pleasantly satisfied rather than overfull. (You wouldn’t want to know what a visit to the buffet would have looked like before… LOL!)

LOL I’m so with you as to what a trip to the buffet, especially the Chinese buffet, looks like. I have finally got to a point where my plate of seconds doesn’t look like my first plate. And I’m not going to back for thirds (or fourths) anymore, but I do piled that first plate pretty high. That’s why I tend to stay away as much as possible now.
Congrats! I’m happy for you and your continued success!

CONGRATULATIONS! As soon as this baby pops out I’m back on that track as well. It does work when you stick to it! Hang in there and don’t give up! That is the most important part – you’re doing great!
