Weight Watchers Weigh In: Week Seven

Success!

This week I'm down to 187.5 -- a loss of 2lbs!

This makes for 12.5lbs lost in total & I'm feeling fabulous.

Recap:
Just 7.5lbs til my July 1st goal of 180lbs.
Just 27.5lbs til my final goal of 160lbs.

This week I had two people say that they could tell I'd lost weight. It was such a good feeling to know that it shows! I'm also fitting into a pair of 'normal people' jeans (aka a pair of jeans which have a zipper, and a button & aren't completely elasticized).

Another neat thing about this week is that before I was pregnant, my previous highest weight was 188lbs. I am now below that weight & it makes me so happy!

I'm seven weeks into my weight loss journey and I still feel super motivated and excited -- thank you so much for all of the support & the love!

Peace & happy Wednesday.

Congrats!! I have been on a weightloss journey myself for about 3 months. I have lost 12 lbs with doing the eliptical 3 times a week and making smarter food choices. I am trying not to "diet" (ie nothing is "off limits") because I fail every time. Instead I allow myself anything, but in moderation and with the realization that everything comes with a cost. Makes that cookie not so appealing to think of what it will take to work off!!! Good luck, good work, and WOOHOO to you!!

I find your update so inspiring!

I went on WW four years ago after the birth of my first daughter and lost 35lbs, so I know it works! I went on it again 10 weeks ago, and I've been really dissapointed and frustrated. I've only lost 5lbs in 10 weeks, for some reason I do not have the self-control I had the first time around to stay within my points limit.
