This is the second week of my less of me goal. And...hip hip or rather...less hip less hip hooray!The third week to weigh. The second on the program.
I lost another 2.4 pounds!For a two week total of -5.2 pounds. So why did I not get a star at the meeting today?
Well...it is due to my failed attempt a few months ago. When I went months ago I weighed 142.2. So my first meeting this time on the 13th showed a gain of 4.4 over that months ago 142.2 weight.
Then on the 17th I lost 2.8 from the 146.6, but only .02 from the months ago 142.2.
This week I lost a new 2.4 which is only 2.6 from the 142.2 but 5.2 from my new beginning.
Weight on January 13th 146.6. Weight on January 24th 141.4.
Sooo... since January 13th,2011 I have lost 5.2 pounds. And I did get a five point star on my electronic tracker. So yea me.
And I do not crave chocolate.I am totally satisfied and enjoying what I am eating.
Dan and I are cooking out of new cookbooks together. It gives us somethng to do together and seems less like a chore.
Thanks Weight Watchers.

There 's Less of Me!
I did not get to the computer for purposes of goofing off yesterday. But I did weigh in. I lost 2.8 pounds. My new official weight is 143.8. I only have 18.8 pounds to lose to look like my business card picture that is virtually everywhere. I have 23.8 to lose to get to my personal goal.(I think that is more than my granddaughter weighs).
I like the new WW system. I resisted learning a new system but this is much more comfortable than the old one.It is totally reasonable that I could be at my goal in 12 weeks. That would be April 11th,2011. Let's see if I make it.
120 by April 11th weigh in.

Day Two
I have made it two days in a row!
On my way home from the gym last night I decided to go by the grocery store for veggies and health foods.
I thought,"Weight Watchers has a new system. Perhaps they have a meeting tonight." I checked my phone and they did at 5:30. It was 5:10. I checked out;drove across town and made it to be in the back of a very long line. I told the attendant that I was a ...lifetime...member...but I did not have my credentials. She found me on the system and in a very non judgemental manner got me set back up. The guilt of relapse caused me to spend about $40 extra dollars on stuff I did not need. Oh well. That is the Democrat way isn't it. Spending will take the weight off won't it? (kidding) Now that the Republicans control congress perhaps I should eat less and move more. So off to Aspen I go. Not Colorado, the gym.

Fat Fat Fat
Today is the day. How many thousands of times have I made that pledge??
Today is the day I will go to the gym. Today is the day I will eat right. I will not eat chocolate.
How many times??? I actually got down to 113 pounds and kept it off for several years. So why why why did I not keep it off? Well, there is no day like today.
So anyone who cares...today is the day. Today I am going to eat right and go to the gym. My weight today is 145 yucky pounds for a very short girl!I will post on Monday my weight once a week until I am back at 120 pounds. I will not eat because someone hurt my feelings. I will not eat because I am stressed. I will not overeat because it is tasty. I will not eat for emotional reasons, bored reasons, lonely reasons or all those excuses I tend to collaborate!

Something to Think About
The 26th amendment (granting the right to vote for 18 year-olds) took
only 3 months & 8 days to be ratified! Why? Simple! The people
demanded it. That was in 1971...before computers, before e-mail,
before cell phones, etc.
Of the 27 amendments to the Constitution, seven (7) took 1 year or
less to become the law of the land...all because of public pressure.
I'm asking each addressee to forward this email to a minimum of twenty
people on their address list; in turn ask each of those to do
likewise.
In three days, most people in The United States of America will have
the message. This is one idea that really should be passed around.
Congressional Reform Act of 2011
1. Term Limits.
12 years only, one of the possible options below..
A. Two Six-year Senate terms
B. Six Two-year House terms
C. One Six-year Senate term and three Two-Year House terms
2. No Tenure / No Pension.
A Congressman collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when they are out of office.
3. Congress (past, present & future) participates in Social Security.
All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social
Security system immediately. All future funds flow into the Social
Security system, and Congress participates with the American people.
4. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan, just as all Americans do.
5. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise. Congressional pay will rise by the lower of CPI or 3%.
6. Congress loses their current health care system and participates in the same health care system as the American people.
7. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the American people.
8. All contracts with past and present Congressmen are void effective 1/1/11.
The American people did not make this contract with Congressmen.
Pasted from an email I received:
Congressmen made all these contracts for themselves.
Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career. The Founding Fathers
envisioned citizen legislators, so ours should serve their term(s),
then go home and back to work.
If each person contacts a minimum of twenty people then it will only
take three days for most people (in the U.S. ) to receive the message.
Maybe it is time.
THIS IS HOW YOU FIX CONGRESS!!!!! If you agree with the above, pass it
on.
