Weigh Day: 1-3-0!

The scale showed another 1.8 lb loss tonight and I received my 130 lb star at my meeting. It didn’t hit me until the drive home…Good Lord! You’ve lost 130 pounds! I just can’t believe it. Who knew I’d be able to stick to a weight loss program and have success on it??? I certainly didn’t think it would be like this. I knew I’d lose some weight…but when I signed up, I was going to be pleased to remove 50-75 lbs from my aching frame. However, I’m a greedy bitch (obviously the trait that led me to WW in the first place). While I celebrate each loss, I am anxious for the next.

Tonight’s weigh-in put me at 275.4 lbs…I’m determined to get through the 270s in the NEAR future. I can be patient, but the amount of time it took me to get out of the 280s is ridiculous. I am close to moving into a lower POINTS range. Losing food? Yes, but also a sign of progress.

As I mentioned before, I run the challenges at my online weight loss support group. “Laboring the Pounds Away” will begin tomorrow and run until Labor Day. My goals for the 7 week challenge:

*Exercise goal: At least 250 minutes of exercise per week
*H2O goal: 120 oz of water daily
*Special Diva goal: 140 lb star and continue TRI training
*Overall pounds lost goal: 10

My focus for Week 68 will be improving my 5K time and continuing the walk/run combos at the track.

Until next time…
