Still eating yummy things and 0.4 pounds away from my 10% goal!!
Two days ago I had a weigh-in. I lost 1.4 pounds. Not bad. I guess this is where the weight loss starts to slow down? I hope not.
I will admit I fell off the wagon last night though. There was an Italian festival in Verplanck, NY that I was invited to by a few work friends. It wasn’t the food that tempted me to go - it was the prospect of reliving childhood via the rides! And of course once I was there, I had a hot dog, fries, and a banana daiquiri. And honestly, it wasn’t even worth it. None of that stuff tasted like I wanted it to. It was a waste of money and health.
Long story short, I was feeling guilty today and did a 3 mile jog after work. By the end of the summer, the hope is to complete a 5k race in a respectable amount of time.
I walked into the church where my weekly meeting is, unsure of the protocol for members. I saw that there were boxes of registration forms (which i filled out last week) that were alphabetized. I found my name, and brought my paper and weight tracker to Ronnie at the weigh-in desk area. She asked me to step on the scale and I didn’t know what to expect. Then she nonchalantly said, while filling out paperwork and not even really looking me in the eye, “4.2”
FOUR POINT TWO!
That couldn’t have been my weight loss for only one week! So I asked, “what is that number?” And she replied bluntly “your weight loss this week.”
WHATTTT!!?
So long story short, I did really well this week! I hope I can keep this caliber of weight loss up.
Also, I got a “Bravo” sticker for sharing this tumblr with the group and the leader.
