0.2 down

don't even ask me how. just pass the sammiches... i'm glad that i did not actually gain the 10 lbs i was imagining around my hips. conversely, i am not at my goal weight, but that's ok. i have a new set of weeks in which to accomplish it. starting with this one, i am getting back in to the habit of planning/tracking ahead. i'm spending the weekend at J's and already plugged in potential meals. we're cooking dinner on saturday (it's our anniversary *squee*), and i have a small surprise for him. my best guesstimates use all my points, but i'm saving my spares for that night just in case. there are gaps (dinner tomorrow, lunch sunday, etc), but the point is to at least have an idea a plan. the plan is not set in stone, it merely establishes a guide. weight watchers has helped me learn to be more flexible. because nothing in life ever goes exactly according to plan. and i am having less frequent meltdowns over this...

in an effort to really get my ass back in gear, i'm participating in a winter challenge



i love that it's a challenge "to be the best we can be in the midst of winter", instead of a very specific (determined by someone else) goal point. i'm fleshing out my goals, and i still need a 10th... oh! thought of something relatively small but somewhat necessary. all my goals revolve around my weight loss, personal relationships and professional aspirations. i'll post them once it's all sorted in my head :) i'm getting excited for this because i really do love challenges. what better way to start off a new year?

here's to meeting 2011 head on and kicking some ass
