WEP - Continues

Kristy and I have been doing Weight Watchers for three weeks today and I am down 6.8 pounds overall. Yes, I was in a size 20. How horrible! I read something the other day that said to encourage more weight loss once you leave a size you should get rid of those clothes and never look back so the 20s are out of my closet. I am now into 18s that are a little loose. I have a ton of size 18 as I have been in those for years.

This week was a tough watch the points week but I am still managing to stay under the overall points for the week. I was so excited to have actually lost weight that I smiled for the rest of the day! I truly think that so many of my problems stem from being so overweight. What does plague me some is that I don't think when I look in the mirror that I am fat! I see so many people walking around that look so much worse that I worry for them because they have to be doing terrible things to their health.

I eat loads of fruits and veggies now but still manage to have pizza and cupcakes on occasion. That is the beauty of Weight Watchers in that you are going for a lifestyle change that does not make you deprive yourself of things.

It has been great seeing how many of my Facebook friends have been doing the same thing and that they have lost a good bit of weight. I am excited that maybe I will actually be more healthy and feel better as I keep losing it.

Kristy and I have bravely signed up with a local trainer for a boot camp in April. We want someone to show us how to work out correctly and get toned for the summer.

Do you think it is possible that I might actually look good in a bathing suit this year!? You bet!
