Weight Watchers Weekly Weigh-in #8!

This marks the end of my 8th week on the Weight Watchers Core plan. What do I have to show for it? A drawer full of pants that are TOO BIG. Not that I’m complaining, of course! Do I wish I could see the difference in the mirror? Absolutely. I can feel the difference in my clothes, but I see the same thing in the mirror - I even see the same numbers in my head when I picture my weight on the scale. Self image is a horrible thing - at this point I’m not sure if a hundred people came up and told me how much weight I’d lost if I would even believe them. It’s strange how our psyche can really be so far off from reality, and I wonder what it is going to take to fix that.

Weight Watchers Weekly Weigh-in #7!

Here I go again with another update, another loss this week although it could have been better, I’m okay with it and I’ll do better this week. Next week I should have a nice pretty picture of a (faux) gold 10% keychain for you.

10% target: .6 pounds away.

The last week was hurried and rushed and I ate out twice - even though my choices were okay, they could have been better and I probably sabotaged my own goal of getting to 10% this week. I feel as though I completely failed myself the whole week in both my weight loss and my own personal goals, and in turn failed everyone around me. Not that you guys even know what my goals were, but that’s just the kind of pressure I put on myself. I need to learn to let that stuff go.

Weight Watchers Weekly Weigh-in #6!

It’s that time again, time for my weekly edition of “Holy Hell My Pants Are Falling Off”. Today marks the end of my sixth full week eating foods on the Core food list (ahem, no, you may not count the Domino’s as food.), and I even managed to surprise myself this week.

I got my third star that marks 15 pounds today. My next star is only 3.8 lbs. away.

10% target: 1.8 pounds away.

Weight Watchers Weekly Weigh-in #5!

My fifth full week in the Core Program. I want the excitement from last week back! Daggone it, it was a slow week, and I must have been lazier or ate worse and didn’t realize it and can I just blame this ALL on PMS?! YES? Thank you so much. I’ll be better next week.

Next gold star: 1.4 lbs.
10% target: 4.4 pounds away.

Dang stupid &*)(%^ water retention and bloating and &*)(%^ stupid portion control and blahbity blah blah blah!

To top it all off, I lost this week, I didn’t gain. What is wrong with me??! Would someone please smack me? I don’t even want to know what kind of nutcase I’ll be if I have a plus sign for a weekly result. Shheeeeeeeeshhh.
