Week One Results

I'm so excited- I lost 3.4 lbs this week!!! Thanks for everyone's encouragement! I was a bit anxious about weighing in. I felt like I had done well, but was scared that I hadn't and that I would give up if all that had been for nothing. So far it hasn't been as hard as I thought it would be. Maybe it's just because I've really made up my mind that I have to do it this time. I think the fact that WW focuses on the positive not the negative aspects is a major benefit. There's not a "Do Not Eat List" (that just makes you want something more) since it's not "a diet", but a healthy eating lifestyle. I know most of my problem has always been portion control (or lack thereof)!!! I'm a country girl and love that country cooking, and eating all you want! I did splurge a little last night after the meeting -a little bit of home fried chicken (no skin) and potato salad. It was heavenly! I worked it off today at school though-dusting shelves and washing the windows from my office into the library and into the hallway, and the windows on the doors. I think I've got spring fever and ready for spring cleaning.
