Hey, Beckie - Did you get that 5 pound star you were so hoping for?
Why, thanks for asking, Beckie! Yes I did! I actually weighed in with a 5.2 lbs loss at my last WW meeting. I have lost a total of 7.4 lbs so far. I told you that star would be mine. Next week, I am aiming for the coveted 10 pound star! Oh, the anticipation! Will I be able to lose the required 2.8 lbs in a week?
I had to ask myself. Sheesh.

Losing Battle
I haven't posted in a while. Haven't been in the mood. That's kinda how I am, you know? I get bored very quickly. But, today! Today I have something to say.
I started on the Weight Watchers program a week ago. I truly know that I need to lose some weight. I am to be in a dear friend's wedding party in 54 days, and don't want to be known as the blob in the wedding photos for years to come.
Many of the girls at work have succeeded greatly on this program! They have given me many pointers over the past week, and I have taken them all. I am proud to say that I followed the program perfectly all week, and exercised pretty much every day. So... this morning I go to my WW (Weight Watchers) meeting, actually excited to step on the scale!
BUT... You knew this was coming, right? Would I be writing this if there was not a BUT?
"Good girl, Beckie, you've lost 2.2 lbs!" WHAT? 2.2 lbs?? Holy crap. I'm supposed to be excited about 2.2 pounds lost in a week??? Now, don't get me wrong, I know that weight loss should be gradual and its a lifestyle change and blah blah blah - But at least give me a 5 pound start to keep me motivated! The WW leader actually gives you a gold star for 5 pounds!
I am not giving up. I am determined to lose 3 lbs this week. I want that damn 5 lb star. It will be mine. Oh, yes, it will be mine.
