1 year and 113.5 lbs gone...

Today is my 1 year anniversary of doing Weight Watchers. I have to say that after not doing a weigh-in last week I was feeling a little off as to what the scale would say. I check myself everyday and knew that it would be a lesser weight from last time, but you still never know just what your body will do to fluctuate at the last moment. I'm never totally certain until I step on that scale for the real weigh-in. Well, I'm down 4.2 lbs from last time for a total of 113.5 lbs since starting.

It's strange to think that I lost that amount in a year. I've literally lost a person in a year. I still have more to lose, but I'm on my way there. I'm not expecting the next year to go as fast as the first year did. I know that things will slow down and my body will start adjusting and I'll plateau at some point. But, it's still good to know that I've gotten this far by making changes in my life that I can live with. No packaged meals, except for the occasional frozen meal when I'm being lazy. I've done it with eating right, exercise and changing how I think about food. I even made it through the holidays with losing weight and enjoying some treats along the way. Go figure!

Now if I can just get this cold to go away than everything would be falling into place for a great new year.
