Weigh in - 20
With a drop of 600gms on the scales this week I am happy to announce that I am now, officially LIVING IN THE 70's - yeah. Whooooo Hoooooo
I have had a brilliant day today. I was so excited when I got off the scales and realised that I am now down to 20 points a day. And to make sure the mousse cake and lemon tarts don't show up on the result next week I made an extra effort at the gym today. I had to laugh though as the speed on the treadmill maxed out at a paltry 4km/hr when only two weeks ago I had it up to 9km for a little wee jog. I will get back to that but slow and steady will definitely win this race.
And, by the way, how did I get to 20 weeks!. It seems like I haven't been doing this journey that long at all (though at other times I do admit to feeling like I have been on it forever LOL). I sometimes forget that the weight didn't jump onto my body overnight, so it isn't going to disappear overnight either. But looking in the mirror today, and seeing some of the more noticeable physical changes, it does kind of feel like I turned around and here I am. I can live with that.
And no, am not about to take up a position as a ww leader - but happy to shoot off at the mouth whenever asked - but I think as a group we all give them a run for their money :)
Points FTD: 20
Sugar Points: 2
Points Left FTW: 120
Exercise: 20 min walk on treadmill.

WOO HOO, living in the 70's! Well done M and what a great loss. So you're down to 20 points too this week!! :-)
The WW meets have a lot to answer for I reckon. I would only recommend doing the At Home program and blogging to anyone who asks me about it now. This blogging community is by far MORE knowledgeable (even about WW) and helpful. I am so glad to be apart of it and to have met you!
Keep up the great work and I'm so happy to see you feeling better. Have a great week!

Well done!!! You are an amazing person and you proved that just by the comment you left on my blog. I agree. I'm not a materialistic person at all and I believe people are truely beautiful for who they are on the inside but hey I feel so much better for doing this. I actaully feel like a participant now rather than a spectator!!! Thanks for all your encouragement. XX
