FINALLY!

i lost 4.8 lbs last week. you read that right. 4.8. as in almost 5. as in if i could have peed out just a little more, i would have lost 5 lbs over the course of last week. yah, i know. inappropriately graphic. but seriously - i practically did a happy dance off the scale!

okay - so i got rid of the big weight gain from a couple weeks ago. but now comes the challenge - really and truly getting off this plateau. i'm back to the weight i've been stagnant at since around november. i've seen 171 - just 3 more pounds from where i am now - so i know i can get there. i have to keep up what worked this week, focus on filling foods and identifying hunger vs. emotion, and using my 2nd journal. oh, and i have to keep up the exercise - luckily, i've got 2 stays in place that really help with that - my WW buddy kristen on monday and thursday mornings, plus my trainer on tuesdays and saturdays. that makes all the difference in the world!
