My weight loss journey is going great! Since February of 2011 I have lost 26 lbs! 19 of those have been thanks to Weight Watchers. A few weeks ago I officially lost 10% of my body weight (which is the first goal they give you). And since I hit that, I am officially in the "normal" range for my BMI. So, now I have to figure out what I would like my goal weight to be, which I'm having a hard time trying to figure out. Honestly, weight wise, I feel great. But I would like to concentrate on my fitness more so I can gain some muscle and get rid of my "fat" on those problem areas. You know what I mean...that pudgy stomach, arm & back fat. After talking to my leader when I hit my 10% goal, I decided to lose 5 more lbs. I am about 2 lbs away from that goal. Once I reach that, I will go through a "maintenance" phase where weight watchers will give me more points that I can eat in a day and I will have to maintain my weight for 6 weeks. That means weighing in for 6 straight weeks without gaining or losing more than 2 lbs. After the 6 weeks, I become a LIFETIME MEMBER! That means I can continue to go to the meetings without paying! If you know me, you know that's a huge motivating factor! Anything to save money :)
I started weight watchers May 27 and to date I have lost 19 lbs. I have learned so much about myself and the nutrition in my life. I can't thank weight watchers enough. I am finally at my PRE-wedding weight! I hope once I meet my weight loss goal I can pay it forward and inspire others to get fit and healthier.
