Weigh-in ... #12

I made it ... 12 weeks on WW, 12 weeks of journaling ... I am doing it! Shouldn't confetti be falling on my head? Not yet? When then? Soon???

I bought a new journal at my meeting this morning. My other is filled, every page ... it feels great to start with a new one today ... another 12 weeks ... ready? set? GO!

I lost 0.2 ... this just works into my theory of how I lose and plateau ... so that is where I am but it is great. My clothes are ridiculously loose on me ... the butt of my pants look horrid ... Caloy even said he thought it was time for new jeans ... yep, thanks for noticing babe.

So, I am still lingering on planet 13 ... 13lbs of weight lost ... 13 lbs this body will never carry again ... and it feels awesome. I am hoping to get a new passport and get to travel to planets 15 and 20 ... soon enough ... is that when the confetti will fall?

I've been having super great workouts and am excited that yesterday was my last day interpreting at the Middle School. Y Camp starts on June 2 and training on Tuesday.

This week I'm really going to focus on my portion sizes ... a cup is a cup, measure it out ... no more no less ... 2 Tbsp of chocolate chips is enough to manage that dumb chocolate craving, not a bag full ... portions, portions, portions. My husband really lags in this arena ... he was brought up to think that more is better, bigger helpings, eat, eat and eat more ... I can't go toe-to-toe with him on this one ... or I'll never leave planet 13.

Thank you Lord for this day, for my run this morning, for my Matthew and the new freckles he got today on the boat with his Poppy. Thank you for this process and all that I am learning about myself. Thank you for my beautiful baby girl and the curls in her hair. Thank you for my husband and his sense of humor. Thank you for meeting the needs of my family this past school year via an interpreting job for me, and Thank you for the coming fun at the Y, the children I will care for and the staff I will lead. The blessings in my life are more than I could ask for or imagine ... and confetti just falling from the sky when I do something great would be a real treat. :)
Amen.
