Super Pumped Up!!!!

Hello my dear sweet, hang in there friends..... I hope that all of ya'll have had a great week and are headed towards a even more wonderful weekend.... we have basketball on Saturday, but other than that, our weekend is a big open canvas... not like we have a lot of money to go spend, but fun doesn't have to cost....

Oh, I forgot to tell ya'll that last week I joined Weight Watchers ... my idea for joining was, I figured it had worked for others, and I really liked the new commercials they have out... and I thought if I was spending money on this weight loss game, then I had more reason to try to stick with it.....

I went last night for my 1st official weigh in....... DRUMROLL PLEASE...... I have lost 3 1/2 pounds.... and you know what, it was not as hard as I thought it would be.... I mean, I am not going to lie and say that I stayed on track all the time, but when I did, I felt the urge to get right back on track and make better choices.... accountability has alot to do with this.... everyone in my house knows that I am doing this and they know I don't need to eat like I used to.... and who really wants to be told by their 7 year old to stop eating something.....

I am going this weekend to Staples to find a USB hub so I can finally download some pics and post about something wicked awesome ....

F.Y.I. .....

did you know that to lose one pound you have to cut back 3500 calories? I did not know that, so for me to lose that 3 1/2 pounds, I cut out 12,250 calories in 7 days ... I can't believe I actually did that, because I did not think I had done that well, but that 3 1/2 pounds has given me a great moral boost and is what I needed to keep my head in the game......
