Guess who made it to goal this morning!!!??? Woo Hoo! It’s official, it took 18 days on weight watchers to lose 6 lbs. I stepped on the scale at least 10 times to be sure I was seeing right. I’m so happy I’ve done this, I can definitely tell a difference. A skirt that had gotten pretty tight and wasn’t fitting quite right fit perfectly this morning for church. It’s wonderful. I said from the beginning my goal was 6 and if I was being greedy, maybe 8 so I’m not stopping quite yet. But if I maintain where I am, I’m perfectly fine with that as well.
My family thought I was crazy for going on a “diet” but those few 6 lbs made a difference to me. No one can even tell but I can tell every morning when I put my clothes on and that’s what matters. I have to be happy with me. And I’d like to say it’s not a numbers game, but I think in some ways it is. My body was different to me 6 lbs ago. My sister rolled her eyes at me when I told her today I made my “goal”–all 6 lbs. But to me, losing any amount of weight is a success and I’d much rather have to lose 6 lbs than 66. So there’s my pat on the back. Go me.
