Sticking with the idea that making this public and paying for the service will help me stay motivated and on track, here is another update on the Weight Watchers journey (this time around).
First an admission, I did not weigh in last week. It was the week following Thanksgiving and the week of lady days and mostly I was not feeling up to seeing a raise in the number on the scale. I realize this was me being a scaredy cat but I didn't have it in me. So I went one more week, attempting to stay on track and making it to Zumba twice and go from there this week.
This morning I woke up about an hour late - either alarms didn't go off or I woke up, turned them off and then went back to sleep with no memory of doing so (it's happened before). I could have easily used this an excuse to not weigh in this morning but that is my old pattern and I'm working on new patterns. I weighed in, braced to face the number whatever it was and...it was lower!! In fact, it was lower by 3.8 lbs - almost the recommended 2 lbs per week which felt great considering Thanksgiving was part of one of those weeks!
Not only that, but when I put it in the tracker...
10lbs down! That was my personal goal to reach 10 lbs down by Christmas, now I can reset that and keep it going. Not a bad way to start a Monday, even if I did oversleep.
