Weigh In Catch Up

I don't think I have posted an official weigh in for a while. It's different not having to GO TO Weight Watchers and have an "official" weigh in. I still try to just weigh just one time a week, but - sometimes I cheat and weigh every other day or so. And yes, I record the low weights. :)

Here's hoping my scale continues to cinch in!

 But, I'm happy that my weight last weigh in was 209.4. That's about 5.5 lbs lost since quitting Weight Watchers. And almost 13 lbs since Christmas. Hooray!!!!!

I really attribute the success to just being enamored with My Fitness Pal and tracking everything I eat. Even the bad things - like the day I ate DQ for lunch and Chinese buffet for supper! That was an eye-opener. I hit the gym the next day and drank about 2 gallons of water!

If I ever do forget to write a post about my weigh in again - I'm keeping track of weigh ins here. 

I've also signed up for a Diet Bet with my MOM friends.

It's sort of like an abbreviated version of Biggest Loser. We all had to weigh in to begin and we all have the same goal: lose 4% of your body weight in 4 weeks. I set up the Diet Bet and set it to private so we all feel comfortable with people we know in the Bet with us, and we had to pay $15 to join. At the end of the 4 weeks, EVERYONE who makes 4% goal gets to split the pot. We have 19 players, so our pot is $285. If we all make the goal, we all get most of our $15 back (minus a fee from Diet Bet). If 2 of us make goal, we split that, and so on. I feel pretty confident that I can make the goal. I have about 5 lbs to lose in the next 3 weeks. I can do that!
