Yay!

FINALLY!!

My first week on weight watchers was a complete success! I lost 1.8 pounds. That brings my total loss to 116.6 pounds and my weight to 177.8. To me, that is so little! I never in a million years thought after weighing 294.4 pounds, I would ever be in the 100's let alone in the 70's! What an accomplishment.

Weight watchers is lovely. It opened up a whole new door for me. I do not have to worry about counting calories, writing everything I eat down and feeling like I can't eat certain things. This week went so smoothly. I just ate how I normally do, and since weight watchers allowed me to eat more than I normally did, I had some extras :). I am beginning to think that was my problem for the past few months. Was I not eating enough? Very Possible. All fruits and vegetables are 0 points. So I think that is why I had success. I loaded up this week, something I feel like recently I have not been doing. Weight watchers has freed me from my old routine and given me something new. It is working out so well and I couldn't be happier.

I saw this post on a blog and it got me thinking:

 This  thought is what motivated me to lose weight. For the first time ever, I do not feel fat anymore. I feel small and thin. I now know what is it like to be thinner and it exceeded all my expectations. I am truly happy for the first time in my entire life. Feeling this way was worth all the struggles and bumps in the road :)
