First Weigh-In

Today was my first official weigh-in at Weight Watchers. I stepped onto the scales with some trepidation. My week had been full of celebrations: my birthday party (cheese, bread, cheese, cheese, apple cider, and cake), Sunday dinner (cake and more delicious cheese) and Valentine's Day (dinner at Cheesecake Factory that included cream & butter in the sauce) and I was SUPER worried that all of the celebrating wouldn't give me the results I was looking for.

The numbers that I saw blew me away! I lost 4.2 pounds!!!!!! I am thrilled that my use of the online tools and paying attention to when and why I was snacking really paid off! Week number two is going to rock!!!! Today I even did a great arm workout and prepped some awesome snacks for the week!

I am also sharing what I am up to with various people in my life so that I am accountable not only to myself but to others as well. It's a brave move for me and I am proud of myself for doing what I know will make a difference for me in the long run. Tonight I was chatting with Stacey, my landlady, and she said she'd be sure to check in with me!!! That's exactly what I need, people on my team. Go team Erin!!! (That makes me think that I might need t-shirts...hmmmm...a crafty project...)
