50 pounds!
I have lost 50 pounds! Actually I am down 50.8. Only 1.2 away from my 52 pounds in one year (52 weeks) goal! I was so proud of myself that I cried at the scale. I really did. It was kind of ridiculous but I couldn't help it. The leader actually asked me if I wanted a hug. I said no. More because I was embarrassed than because of not wanting one. Especially since I am hugger. I love giving and receiving hugs. But I digress... I did it! I made 50 pounds which means I am keeping my 1.5 pound average weight loss up and it means I am on my way. Grinning from ear to ear!!!

Goals?
Last week I lost again! I am feeling so good about my journey. I figured it out that I have lost 1.5 pounds a week. That is awesome for me. I was hoping for a pound a week and had said to myself, when I started Weight Watchers, that my goal was to lose 52 pounds in one year. But at this rate, I should be at 52 pounds in just a few weeks which is three MONTHS sooner than I expected. Yay me!!
Now that leads me to my next question...what should be my next goal? I am feeling very weird about this thought. First of all, maybe I shouldn't jump the gun. I have not really met my first goal; so, why am I looking toward my next one? Second, what if I stall out and it does take me the next three months to lose the next 4 pounds. Third, why am I being so negative? I should look forward, right? Yes.
Okay, here we go... Goal 1- Stay committed to Weight Watchers for one year (ongoing- 19 weeks left)
Goal 2- Lose 5 pounds (check)
Goal 3- Lose 10 pounds (check)
Goal 4- Lose 10% of body weight (check)
Goal 5- Lose 52 pounds within one year (So close)
Goal 6- Lose 20% of body weight (do by 10.5 months)
Goal 7- Get to One-der-land (term from Biggest Loser meaning to be in the 100's)
(do by a year)
Goal 8- Lose 75 pounds (unsure of my timeline, may need to be a smaller goal)
Goal 9- Get to goal weight (feeling like this is very far away)
Goal 10- Stay at goal
Whoa, there they are, all laid out in front of me. That is a bit overwhelming.
