Weigh in this morning showed -2.2 lbs, bringing me to 181.4, for a grand total of 27.4 lbs!  I have to say, I feel like something just really clicked inside my head and I feel like I can really do this!  I am motivated!  I acheived my mini goal of no longer being “obese” and am now just “overweight” according to the BMI calculator at the WW website.  My next mini goal is to be out of the 180’s.  I don’t think I’ve been in the 170’s since not long after 2nd ds was born, and he’s 10 now.  Only 1.5 lbs. to go.  Can I do this by next weeks weigh in?  It might be tough, because we’ll be with extended family this weekend, which means lots of food, and not alot of say in what is served. 

I finally watched the Biggest Loser Finale.  Yeah!!!!! A girl finally won!!!!

OK, it a bit later now, and kids are all in bed, and I sat down to put in my food at WW etools, and I started playing around with some numbers concerning my weight loss.  I decided to see how much more I need to lose to get to goal.  Answer: 31.4 lbs   And I thought “that’s almost as much as I’ve lost already,” so I decided to see what the half way mark from my starting weight was.  I started at 208.8.  Answer:  29.4 loss is the halfway mark, which would be 179.4.  Since I’ve already lost 27.4 lbs, I only have 2 lbs to go to the halfway mark.  Woo HOO  that’s exciting!!!!! And since I’m so close, it a little extra incentive to stay on track this weekend when faced with what is usually a struggle- eating right around my extended family, in order to reach that milestone!
