I'm taking it all off

Get your mind out of the gutter! I'm talking about the extra weight I've been carrying around for the past few years. I joined Weight Watchers a couple of weeks ago and am now bound and determined to lose at least fifty pounds. It's kind of amazing and discouraging to look at pictures of myself and realize that I don't look like I think I look. I have the opposite disorder of an anorexic; when I look in the mirror most of the time I like what I see and think I look skinny(don't laugh). It's always the pictures that tell the truth though (they're brutally honest!). At the beginning of the year I joined Weight Watchers after hitting an all-time highest weight (non-pregnant, but pretty darn close to all-time highest pregnant weight too!). I lost twenty pounds in about six weeks, but then I got pregnant and had to quit so now I'm going to try it again. Coincidentally I joined this time (six weeks after giving birth) at almost exactly the same weight I joined last time.
I've already seen results too. The first week I lost 8.8 lbs! I was really surprised. I'm convinced it's because I was eating such junk before that when I actually started to eat healthy food it just slid off. This morning I was seriously worried when I weighed in, because last week was Thanksgiving and it was kind of hard to keep track of how much I was eating (and I did enjoy me some pumpkin pie and my sister-in-law's to die for tollhouse pie). I surprised myself again by losing 1.2 pounds (I was afraid I would gain!) bringing my total so far to exactly 10 pounds! Now only 40+ more to go! I'll try to update periodically on my total weight loss. I hope to reach my goal by summer!
