Lost 5% Since Joining Weight Watchers!

Down another 3.2 pounds today! I've hit my first 5% target!

The leader asked me what I've done differently over the last six weeks. It's hard to pinpoint. I should ask the family what they've seen me do differently....

- Measuring my food as much as possible and making better food choices. Not eating a lot of pasta right now and the bread is typically a 1 pt flat bread, english muffin, or something similar.
- Trying to be more diligent about my exercise - I definitely feel stronger in Jazzercise.
- Drinking more water.
- Tracking what I eat and drink.
- Not nibbling when making lunches or dinners.
- Making sure I take my Calcium and multivitamin just to make sure I am getting enough nutrients.

I know that I was hungry all the time during the first week and a half of this journey, which began February 24th. I can remember the day that this changed ... March 5th, when I realized I wasn't hungry. It was strange. I figured my metabolism was slowing down, which is a huge fear of mine.

I also haven't told many people that I am on Weight Watchers... yet. I guess it is that fear of failure. And it usually takes about 30 pounds of loss for people to really begin to notice. I am slowly opening my network up. But right now, those that do know have been wonderful. And my family is right there at the top.

Thank you everyone!

Next goal... another 5%!
