Default Two successes this week!

Two successes for me this past week. First, I actually lost two pounds in one week! Wow! And I've lost about six pounds in the last month. It finally started coming off. I'll add that I'm doing a lot of exercise, more than usual, so I'm betting that has something to do with it. Four more pounds lost and I'll be at the weight I was when I got married and my lowest weight in eight years.

Second and most important, my wife spontaneously told me a few days ago that she'd like to do the online Weight Watchers program. It's the first time in about a year that she's mentioned actually wanting to start a diet. As I have some money set aside, I told her to scrap the online thing and do the once-a-week in-person meeting if she wanted. It costs more, but it'll be worth it to have the support group behind you. She agreed and will start going to their meetings this week!

Congrats Tricon! Glad you're seeing positive changes and that you'll have a weight-loss buddy in your wife! I love running/working out w/ my hubby! Plus, him going to the gym motivates me on days I might not want to - lots of positives to having a spouse w/ the same mind-set!

Congrats on losing 6 pounds in a month, that is truly an awesome progress. Also, I'm happy to read that your wife has decided to join you on your healthy lifestyle regime, you now have a partner and that makes things a lot easier and more enjoyable, plus you can motivate and support each other.

That's great! And good for you for not "bugging" her into it, but just having the support (and money) available for her when she was ready.
