Seeing Stars...

Tonight I went to my WW meeting and I saw stars. I got another 5lb star and this:

I also earned another charm for my key chain. For those who don't know about the WW key chains, you get the key chain when you reach your 10% loss goal. Then you get a washer at 25, 50, 75, and 100 pounds lost. The clapping hands with the "16" on them is for 16 weeks of meetings and I also have a 5K charm for completing my first 5K walk. I have this hanging on a little suction cup on the front of my fridge. It serves as a daily reminder of how far I've come and my success.

 

Here is a slide show of my starting weight and then -50 pounds:

Shrinking

Do you remember the scene in Alice in Wonderland when she drinks the potion that shrinks her down to an itty bitty size? Well, Weight Watchers doesn't offer any potions to shrink us down, but somehow it works like magic to me! I'm not hungry, I eat what I want and I'm still losing weight and inches. I took my measurements this morning since I've now been on WW for five months, here are my totals:

• Head: -1/2" 
• Neck: -1 1/2" 
• Arm: -2 5/8" 
• Wrist: -5/8" 
• Bust: -3 1/2" 
• Ribs: -1/2" 
• Waist: -8" 
• Hips: -7" 
• Thighs: -5 1/4" 
• Calves: -3/4"

Total inches lost:  -30 1/4!

Tonight is my weigh-in. I'm 1.4 pounds away from losing 50 total. I'll be back tonight to update!

An Unexpected Loss

I'm going to keep this brief tonight because Gray's starts tonight and I'm in my PJ's ready to watch it! I weighed in tonight and this week I had an unexpected loss.

-5 pounds!



WHOA! Tracking points and getting some exercise just like always, so I'm not sure how this week managed -5, but I'll take it! I'm only 1.4 pounds away from my -50 pounds loss goal, that I set for Halloween!  -48.6 is feeling pretty good, I must say!
