You just wouldn't read about
it would you. The scales tonight showed a 0.8 kilo loss. After
the disastrous weekend, I could still smile. I can now boast a loss
of 7.5 kilos. If I can lose 0.7 kilos this week, then my daily points
total will go down to 23 points per day. I'm not sure how I will
go, I have a work dinner on Friday night, and the in-laws coming around
for Dinner on Saturday night. Aside from that, I have felt really
hungry all week.
I am getting in some exercise
though. I have had a 1/2 hour walk twice already this week, and hope
to get some more in over the weekend.
I can't believe the fantastic traffic I am getting to this site, and the wonderful messages in my guest book are just so motivational. I brought my fiancee in tonight to have a peek at what my counter is up to, and he was amazed. He thinks it great that so many people are out there, giving others support in their weight loss efforts. I am pretty pleased that my journal may be helping others stay on track, or even make the decision to join a weight loss program. To think that me, at such a large weight could be a role model for someone! This is all the motivation I need. I sort of feel responsible every day to stay on track, I just think about the people out there, most of whom I will never meet, visiting my pages, eager to see how I have done, if I have stayed on track, and I put down the chocolate, or the greasy food, I have a goal to reach!
I am home alone all weekend, as Alan has to work. I do have a fair amount of work to do, both on the computer, and just around the home, but I have decided to make this site a fairly large priority. I have found so many other on line journals by other weight watchers, and I want to share their stories with you as well, so a links page will go up. I have also started cooking some of the recipes in the WW cookbooks, and I want to share them with you, so a recipes page will go up, and the best thing of all, I had some "before" photos developed, so I will try my hardest to get them scanned and put up so you can put a "fat" face to the words you are reading. Be sure to check back next week to see more of me!
