Challenge: Avoiding the Cadbury creme eggs, mini eggs and Reese's eggs!
Celebration: Wearing two of my pre-pregnancy dresses over Easter weekend!
My WW tip of the week: Popsicle Fudgesicles are only a half a point each and are great for when you're craving something sweet!
Jamie, that's AWESOME! Way to go! You rocked your first week! How did Jim do? (He may not have gone yet to weigh in...)
ReplyDeleteI also got to wear a dress for Easter that I haven't fit into in years! So thrilling!
So happy for you!
WOW...so proud. Did you feel deprived? Did you have to give up anything??
ReplyDeleteHey Jaime!
ReplyDeleteI peek in on your blog from time to time to coo over Anne Hastings and see what you and Jim are up to! But this entry definitely struck a more personal chord with me. After high school and college, I "blossomed" up to nearly 300 lbs. Years of denial (big boned? never lost my baby fat? I just don't have a good metabolism?) later and I finally decided to get some help. And you know me...I was always severely overweight.
5 years later, I've lost and held off 85 lbs. The first 60 I can blame entirely on WW - we'll call the second 25 the New York Pounds. It's a great program, and if you need any words of wisdom or encouragement, drop me a line! HAVE FUN! That was really always the key for me...discovering the joy of new recipes and foods to go crazy over.
I went back and read your intro to WW entry, and I think you're going into this with a really great attitude and mindset.
