BACK TO THE EGG

186.4

Well, I’ve done it. I’ve gotten back down to the lowest weight since I started keeping track in Alabama. The BAD thing about this is that I see the possibility of history repeating itself, and regaining some weight back like I did last time. This time I plan to guard very carefully against that possibility. It’s a week to the wedding, and I really would like to be NO MORE than this when I have to put on that dress. And I sure would love to weight LESS. That’s still a possibility. But for this moment…ah! Victory! 🙂

See? As I said last time, slow and steady wins the race. I am ALMOST back down to my lowest weight. My wedding dress fits, and I still have a week and a half to go.

And oh yes!!! I forgot to mention! A really big motivator for losing weight and getting healthy! At work they have started this…well, they’re calling it a “program” right now, but I think it’s really going to be a “contest.” They have invited all employees to form teams, and these teams are going to try to lose 5% of their body weight and engage in other healthy habits, like drinking water, eating fruits n veggies, exercising, etc. There will be a weigh in on Sept 5. To find out whether or not we have achieved our goal, I imagine there will be another weigh in when the “program” is over, first week in November.

So…teams…with a goal…a starting measurement…and presumably an ending measurement. Yep. This screams “contest” to me. I started a team with three of me co-workers, and we are all excited to undertake.

Good thing too, it’s over early in November, I think on the 7th, so I can ease up a little just as NaNo is starting to kick in!

I won’t complain. It’s Monday morning, and I’m less than I was at the beginning of the weekend. Also, yesterday I tried on my wedding dress, and it fits, tho admittedly tight, but it FITS, so as long as I don’t GAIN any weight in the next several days, I’ll be fine. It would be nice if I could lose one or two more pounds, but the urgency to lose weight has been significantly diminished.

I am now only one pound away from my lowest weight since I started keeping track in Alabama. Once again, I am beginning to feel like I can do this. All is not lost.

Well, I guess I won’t complain that I’m holding steady, since last night we went out to eat at CiCi’s Pizza. What was I thinking? I was thinking that it was Friday night, and I was hungry, and not only that, but I had a BOGO coupon. So…what a deal! Tho not a good deal on the scale.

Well, the wonderful thing is that every day we get to start afresh. So here I go!
