So weighed in today and guess what I saw.... Just a little bit of Onederland staring back at me! 199lbs...Take that Fat! lol... I am really happy but I am not as happy as I thought I would be and it's all because I have changed my scales. My old scales were electrical and I weighed in lbs and so I never really had any idea of how much I was in stone unless I worked it out on the calculator. My mini goals were all about the lbs.. 210, 200, 190 etc.. I would have probably gone in to the next stone and not even realised it ... but now my scales are in stone and it doesn't show pure lbs. Now what I can see are the big numbers 1 and 4 looming closer and closer and closer...so that is now my aim and I have kind of forgotten about being in Onederland. A little bit sad because for so long I was getting excited about the idea of saying "yes sir-ree I have hit that" but now imagine how I will feel when I reach 14 stone.. I then am only 14lbs away from my original goal of being 13 stone (180lbs).
At the moment I am really really pleased with WW and my progress so far especially seeing as I have gone over my points every week due to family visits and celebrations. But as well know there is always something happening that will get in your way and the thing we have to do it to try and overcome it! I am feeling pretty confident that I will rech 180lbs by end of Feb if I keep going the way I am now.
This morning I can annnounce that I re-started my gym routine and was in the swimming pool by 6.35am! I was the first one in there and nobody else came in which is a little bizarre as normally there are 2 or 3 other people doing lengths. I have to say I think a pool that is calm and still is one of the most mesmerising things ever.... I was really tempted to not get in and ruin it! It always freaks me out though when there aren't alot of people around when you expect them to be.. straight away I thought "OMG.. is it Sunday and I have got the day wrong".. and then when I have replayed my weekend and yes indeed I have had 2 days at home which makes today a Monday I think "OMG..is it a Bank Holiday and I didn't know?" I did 30 min swimming and then just under 10 mins in the sauna and I felt really good for it. This week I will be doing all of my gym sessions and that includes running on Thursday night... eeek!
My weekend on the whole was good... Saturday afternoon I went to the ballet with my niece and Mother to see "The Nutcracker" which was good... ballet isn't quite my thing but my niece really enjoyed it. We went out to Lunch before and I had a skinny pizza from Zizi which although was delish I only worked out the PP when I was home (lesson to plan ahead) as I found out the Pizza was 15pp... 15! I was very surprised! In the evening I went out for dinner with some friends and to try and make up for my high pointed lunch I had a lighter dinner. I had a starter but then for my main I had another starter... which was a really good idea I thought and is something I am going to do more often as starters today are a) quite big and b) very tasty ... gone is just the garlic bread or garlic bread with cheese for a choice!
Looking forward to this week and would totally love to see 14 on the scales on Monday.
Congrats on moving into Onederland! I so love that phrase! I give you a lot of credit for doing the conversions. Thought I don't ever do that I know that it can be weired to not see the type of things you want to even if they do mean the same thing. Down is down.
ReplyDeleteI also love getting two starters. As another added bonus they are usually cheeper then an entree and you get more variety. So proud of you!
Thank you! I am very pleased to be in onederland! Totally right in costs...my bill was nearly £15 (c$25) dollars less than my friends! Saw your email. Will respond today! xx
DeleteAlso, I just sent you an email :)
ReplyDeleteOnederland is such a huge milestone, but just because 1 stone is a goal for you, it doesn't take away from the fact that you have achieved onderland, well done you!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I am pretty sure I will also see bang on or maybe less than 14 stone on Monday as well so I am happy now and will be extra happy next week! xx
