Weigh-in in DC

This week I was in Washington DC. And I found a place to go weigh-in!!

I was really hoping to have lost 1.8 pounds to reach the loss of 50 pounds. But a loss is a loss and not a gain. haha :)

I only lost .4 of a pound this week. Which is okay. And in a way I am kind of glad, because then I can celebrate that accomplishment with my group and my leader back home, rather than with some strangers.

So hopefully this week at weigh-in I will be able to have that celebration and that milestone.

My New Outfit!

The other day I was going through my clothes, and trying to find outfits for my trip to Washington DC. And I relized I did not have anything that fit me properly!

It was actually kind of exciting!

When I started Weight Watchers back in Febuary I was wearing a size 22 pants (on the brink of a size 24) and now 5 months later I am wearing a size 16! :) I havent been able to wear a 16 in at least 3 years.

I am so excited to be able to shop at a normal store. I know that seems silly, but skinny people clothes are MUCH cheaper than going to a specialty store. Lol.

Starting weight: 276.4
Current weight: 228.2
Loss to date: 48.2

Goal weight: 174
Pounds to go: 54

46.6 pounds and still going strong!

I had a little party the other day when I had found out I have almost lost 50 pounds!

I have never been more excited and more confident than I am now! Its amazing and I words cannot even begin to discribe how I feel!

I feel like I am becoming who I am supposed to be not only physically, but also emotionally. I am learning to control my eating and the reasons I am eating. Which has always been a struggle for me in the past.

A quote that I really like is, "If hunger isnt the problem, then eating isnt the solution." I'm not sure who said it, but they are words to live by.

Here is a picture of the weight loss graph from my weight watchers tool online! Its so great to see how far I've come!
I cannot wait to see what will happen as I continue down this path that I am on! I know that whatever it is, its going to be the best thing that has ever happened to me in quite sometime! :D
