Celebrate the Small Successes

Pardon me while I do the happy dance! I was waiting for this day, and it finally came. Forget all the lead in about my diet and my struggles, blah blah blah... I finally dropped below 160 lbs!!!!! I am so excited, I have not been in the 150's in over  9 months (and no there was no pregnancy I can use as an excuse for my weight gain). Just a mouth that I could not zip shut. As you all know I joined Weight Watchers about 2 months ago just hoping and praying it would work. You know what? It did!! I signed up for the simple (under $50) plan and really stuck to it. Somewhere in the middle I started to panic and thoughts of failure began to dance in my head, as well as visions of food that I was not allowed to eat. I almost threw my hands up, but for some reason (maybe the support of Hubs) I did not. Boy oh boy am I glad that I did not! I am technically 3.9 lbs away from the goal weight I had originally set for myself. In all honesty that was a "I would settle to be" number. Now that I broke through the 160's and am into the 150's I am going to shoot for a super happy weight of 150 lbs... Which means another 8.9 lbs... This program gave me the confidence that I can do this, and you know what? I WILL!
