I've been doing Weight Watcher now for 7 weeks.
Time for an update right??
Most days I don't even think about it anymore, it's just become a part of life.
If you looked in my fridge or pantry you'd see a myriad of numbers written on everything.
I find it's easiest to write the points value on things so when I go to grab something there's no questions!
I've been excited over how easy the transition has been so far.
I honestly haven't felt deprived yet. Or like I have to eat differently than the rest of my family.
For the most part I'm still cooking the same old stuff, except now I actually eat ONE serving size.
It's amazing how much longer a meal lasts us.
I just told my husband, usually when I made a pan of taco meat, we could polish it off in one meal.
Now?
We got THREE meals out of it.
How's that for eye opening!
Plus I'm loving having leftovers. Saves me from cooking every.single.night.
But enough about that, you want to know the numbers.
Welp. I'm happy to say I'm down just over 20 pounds!
That's a toddler people.
Every time I pick up Jamie, I think about how I had that much extra weight to carry around.
No wonder my back was aching!
The best part is I'm finally starting to notice a difference in my clothes.
Being so tall, I tend to distribute weight EVERYWHERE, so I'm not one of those girls who can drop 5 pounds and immediately tell. Or drop a pant size. It can be kind of depressing when you're pro-actively trying to lose. Everyone wants those immediate results. But I've had to remind myself, it's a long journey, and it's not going to fall off all at once. Slow and steady wins the race right??
Here's some progress pictures for you.
I hate to say I didn't take an actual "Before" picture.
So the ones on the left are after my first week when I had lost 6.6 lbs.
The ones on the right were taken this morning.
Not too shabby for 2 months.
I really need to get a measuring tape so I can track inches too.
I obviously won't be able to start from the beginning, but I think it will help to see progress even when the scale isn't budging!
Until then, I'll keep on trucking!

Definitely get out the tape measure, girl. I've been at a plateau on the scale for about 3 weeks now and was SO discouraged this morning. Until I got out my tape measure and found I've lost 2 inches of my waist, half an inch on both thighs, and half an inch on my hips in 1.5 weeks!
You look great! I can defnitely tell in the pictures that you have lost weight. I am just starting my third week of Weight Watchers and I have lost 6.8 pounds. Keep up the good work!
Waaaahooo! That is some serious progress! Keep on trucking...sounds like it is going really well!
Good for you! 20 pounds is a big deal - especially in two months. That's awesome!

It has taken me 8 weeks to lose 7 pounds, so I'm extra impressed!!
I totally see a difference!!! Amazing job :]
My mom lost 80 pounds (slowly) on WW and has kept almost all of it off for a few years now (she had some health issues that caused her to gain a little bit back, but she is still at her WW goal weight). Even to this day she still sticks to the plan and hopes to be a leader one day.
How awesome for you...congrats. I love using the tape measure versus the scale...you can see the numbers go down in a much different way. Its so motivating. Congrats again and you are looking great!! = )

That's THE BEST part about WW. You really, truly get educated and think HOW THE HECK did I eat that before? AND NO WONDER. It makes total sense.
You are amazing! Can't wait to keep following along!

WOOT. That is so awesome. Go you. Cause if we don't do it for ourselves, no one will.
