Here I am, again.  Trying to lose the weight that has slowly re-appeared. 

I started this journey on June 12, 2008 at a horrendous weight of 182 pounds!  As a former weight-watchers lifetime member (I lost 36 pounds through weight watchers and kept it off for several years) I couldn't believe I was nearly back to where I had started!  Clothes aren't fitting and I can't stand the rolls anymore.  Ugh!  Since I'm trying very hard to be frugal financially (ha!  as well as frugal calorie-wise!) and weight watchers costs around $40/month, my husband pointed me towards this website.

The website's goal for me is to lose 34 pounds to arrive at a weight of 148, but I know I will be personally satisfied with a 24 pound loss and arriving at 158.

My first big 'goal' is to bring my weight below 170 pounds, which would be a loss of 12 pounds.  I think I'm only a month or so away from that, so it is very exciting!  Plus, I have a pair of pants that I would love to pull on (easily!).

Update:  July 18, 2008....I have made my first goal.  Even if just by 1/2 a pound, I am there. 

Update:  August 13, 2008...Well, I didn't quite make my mini goal of 162 by the first day of school, but that is okay.  I HAVE lost exactly half the weight I need to lose.  I have lost 17 pounds and have 17 left to go.  My next goal will be to drop below 160...which is 5 pounds away..so...one pound a week means five weeks...So by September 19th, I'd like to be below 160.
