WeightWatchers Week 3

Thursday, January 31, 2008

**No excuses, this week... Things are gonna get serious ;-).
I know, from the pic on the left, I don't look overweight but I won't make this blog an 18+ one by putting up a pic of me in my underwear! LOL! Seriously, my waist has always been on the small size compared to the rest of my body but it needs some tightening/toning and my thighs too... I just have to make sure I don't get too skinny again like I did the first time...
I don't think my goal is to lose 20lbs anymore, it seems too much... 14.15lbs seems like the max I should lose... once I can fit comfortably into the skirt I tried on in week 1 and these trousers I tried on last weekend that kinda fit but are a little too tight at the waist and snug instead of baggy. I think 150lbs(10stone 10lbs) will do it for me. Right now I'm 161.5lbs(11stone 7.5lbs). Let's see...
The funny thing is: although I have only lost 1.5lbs(according to the WW scales), I actually feel slimmer than by only 1.5lbs... proof that one shouldn't always rely on the scales. So I'll try on the skirt in 2 weeks and see how close I am to my goal.**
