I made Lifetime!!!!!!

Wow! That was the longest "six weeks" of my life! Literally...from October 9th until February 26. LOL

February 26, 2008 was an awful day! It snowed, and snowed, and snowed. I went to the gym early that morning and, voila! I actually weighed at my goal weight. I was ecstatic. You see, that day was my regular Weight Watchers meeting day. Tuesdays are usually a run-around day for me with my business. I often spend the day running errands and going from point A to point B. So....knowing that I had to go to point A, it was fiercely snowing and my regular meeting might be cancelled, and there was a Weight Watchers center near point A....I decided to weigh in that morning. I figured if they did not cancel my regular meeting I could go anyway and celebrate. BUT....if they did cancel my meeting and I didn't get to weigh in while I knew that I was at goal....I would have been one unhappy puppy!

So, I went to the WW center, stripped down to my tank top (and jeans...it was cold so I didn't wear my regular lightweight pants) and YIPPEE! I weighed 135.2 lbs!!!! I had lost 4.8 pounds in one week. That is the most I have ever lost in one week. I really don't know HOW I did it, except that I switched to Core that week. But, I was out of town most of that week eating at restaurants. I personally think the loss was divine. LOL.

So...my weigh in qualified me for Lifetime membership in Weight Watchers. Now I only have to weigh in once a month, can attend all the meetings I want, and don't have to PAY anymore!!! (Unless I'm over my goal weight by 2 lbs or more.)

I weighed in again on March 4 and weighed 135.6 lbs. So, I did well at maintaining this week! :-)

Yay me.
