On to Week #2

Weight Watchers Meeting #2 didn't go half bad last night! Aside from craming 40 people in a room made for 20 due to a funeral in our normal room - I enjoy going to these meetings because I realize there are so many people out there like myself - looking for a place to turn to, a place where they can face their weight struggles & not be labeled for doing so. It is a safe place of sorts, but it's also a place to learn! I had a rough time getting on track w/ WW this past week... however, I 'only' gained .4 pounds. Not 4 Pounds! But .4 pounds! I still believe that if I would have taken my Flip Flops off before getting on the scale I would have stayed Even or lost .2 LOL

So here is how I fared with my goals from Week #1:

No Alcohol ... After splitting Margaritas w/ Kristin on Friday & Beers w/ Liz, Amy, Kyle & Adam on Saturday... I didn't live up to this one.. but it was in moderation and not an everyday thing!

No Fast Food... SUCCESS! It has officially been since December 30, 2008 w/ NO Fast Food!

Work Out 3 Times for 30 Minutes.. meh, we're working on this! I earned 18 Activity Points for Walking.. so I'm not writing this off as a complete 'failure'!

Goals for Week #2:

*Limit Alcohol Intake .. I know I wont be able to avoid it completely, so I'm limiting it to 5 drinks per night out & limiting my going out to the weekends only!

*Work Out 3 Times for 30 Minutes.. I'm unemployed beginning Monday, I have NO excuses!

*No Fast Food... I'd like to make this 2 months w/out fast food!

*Check All My Boxes... This will be tough, by boxes I mean the Boxes on my Food Booklet for Fruits & Veggies, Dairy, Liquids, Lean Protein, Multivitamins, etc.

In other Life News! It is my last day at the Extension Office today.. I'm so bummed, but it doesn't seem "real" either. I feel like I'll be back next week... just as normal. THANK YOU Stephanie for sending me the most beautiful flowers (I'll post pictures soon!) & Box of Chocolates.. My Office for the wonderful Going Away Cake... Janet (my boss) for the Card & Gift Card... Arlene for Lunch yesterday @ Salvi's.. Carol for the Gift Set & Laura for the Card & Money! I am SO BLESSED w/ the greatest people in my life... truly, I am!

I'll be heading North this afternoon to visit my Mom for the weekend! I'll post more on Monday.. so until then...

Cheers!
