Snails Pace

So I dropped another two pounds, which bring my total to -8 and my weight at 230...sigh. While that's all good and swell,* I'm not feelin it. What I mean is, I thought with all these pills I'm taking (especially the thyroid meds) I would see a bigger drop. I'm not talking -10. I just thought maybe a -5 or -3 even. But here I am on this steady slope** kinda chugging along. v e r y   s  l  o w  l  y. sigh.  

BUT! Something awesome has started to happen! My body is getting used to eating  right portions. When I try to eat the way I used to, like when I go out, my stomach doesn't let me! I'm like HEY I have the points let me at it! So what I am saying is: IT'S WORKING! Weight Watchers knows what it's doing, and my stomach is getting trained! 

So about those goals I set last time...

I failed. 

I sort have set my self up for failure because they were more like wishes than actual reasonable goals. So I'm going to pick one for this week and work on it. So I am picking:

Go swimming earlier

I do like being the only one in the pool so late at night, plus no one can see me and judge. But it is reeking havoc on my sleeping, which is a problem all in it's self. I also like going with my husband and he doesn't get off until 11pm. Which get us to the gym around 12 or later. I guess I just have to be a little more independent and go right when I get home from work. I also think since I don't have a gym partner I just figure I can go all whenever I want, so I am not accountable to be ON TIME for anything. sigh... So..

I'M WORKING ON IT!

Oh and here is the ugliest picture of me EVAR! from last week. enjoy. 

yuck. you're welcome.

*I am very happy about losing the weight. I am terrified about plateau-ing 

**I know this is the healthiest way, and it is the ideal amount for being on ww. I just want more and that's ok :)
