This week marked the 3 month mark on Weight watchers. I am thrilled with all that I have accomplished. This has been a trying week for me. We had to say good bye to our loving Wally boy. After almost 12 years of a great life together it was time to send him home. He was an amazing dog and will always be missed. Needless to say I was terrified what the scale would say after that traumatic decision. Stress can derail your diet and weight loss. Today was weigh in day and I was really really nervous to step on.
My official weight for this week is 138.9. That was a loss of 2.3 lbs. YEAH!!!!!!! First, I finally broke the 141 mark but to lose 2 lbs total. Holy crap balls this is great! I am almost in Virgin territory. Anything the scale says from here on out I haven't seen since I was pregnant with Christian. I weighed 132lbs when I found out I was expecting him. So I have been carrying all this around for almost 6yrs, and let me tell you I am ready to be rid of it.
On top of weighing in today I also took my measurements. This was a great ego booster for me. I see the scale going down but I don't necessarily see the physical change. Total I have lost 12.8 inches as of today. I have lost 4.5 in on my waist alone, and 3.5 on my hips. This I can tell every time I slip on my favorite size 6 skinny jeans and still be able to breath.
I know i'm on the right path and I know there are still going to be hurdles to get over but I am up for it. My goal to be down 6 more pounds by Christmas is looking more attainable now. I can't wait to get down to my goal weight and be comfortable in my skin. Stay tuned and see what else comes my way.
See you on the skinnier side!!
