So, today was weigh in day. It's been 1 whole week since I've re-directed my focus. It's been a week since I wrote down my weight goals and gained some motivation. It's been 1 whole week since I started writing down EVERYTHING I eat. It's been a week and I feel GREAT! Who wouldn't feel great when they stand on a scale and see that they had a weight loss of. . .
6 POUNDS!!
Um, ya. I was really stoked about that!
Now, to come off my pedestal. I realize the first week is a week where you lose more easily. I realize a lot of water weight comes off at first. I've done this ALL before when originally doing WW and after having each of my kids. So, ya. I know. I watch Biggest Loser. I see the dramatic weight losses in week 1. This being said, I still believe that this is a triumph. This is a week where it's VERY EASY to go back to old ways, to old habits. This is a week where you can deviate and think, "what the heck, I'll start this whole lifestyle change 'NEXT WEEK' ", but I didn't do that. I'm NOT gonna do that. And I'm most definitely NOT gonna do that even if the scale says something not quit so exciting next week! I'm on a roll and am determined to meet my goals! I will lose the weight I wanna get rid off. I WILL do this!
