The 3rd annual Weight Watchers Lose for Good Challenge began on September 5. I’ve been so excited about it since I initially read about it in this month’s WW Magazine. This’ll be a great time to lose those last few pounds and get back to my goal weight and continue to maintain!
“As you lose weight and participate in other activities from September 5 to October 23, you can help feed children and families in need.* Wow, only 2 weeks left until L4G is over. Do you think I can lose another 5 pounds in two weeks? It doesn’t hurt to try healthfully, of course. Healthy eating and exercise, here I come!
So far, as of last week, I’ve lost 5 pounds! Yeah! I’ve got about another 5 pounds to go and I’ll be back at my goal weight. I don’t know why, but for me it seems easier to lose weight during Fall than it is any other time of year. Since I began WW in late 2008, I’ve noticed that I have a difficult time losing weight from May – September. However, even though I have days or weeks when it’s difficult to maintain, I’ve been successful at maintaining within 5 to 10 pounds. Yay me!
I spent this morning as a cooking fairy. My friend T was hosting a home lunch (free lunch for college students) and was invited over to lunch. However, I spent this morning helping (which I totally didn’t mind at all) chopping and peeling broccoli, parsnips and carrots and browning some tri-tip roast. We had a really great lunch! Butternut squash soup, steamed broccoli, carrot/parsnip mash, tri-tip roast, boiled potatoes and a zucchini-pecan cake. Yum! A few hours after lunch I began feeling sleepy because I was so completely full from lunch! Thank goodness for a nice walk and French-pressed coffee. I still feel completely full from lunch. Even though I’m fairly tired, I hope I can fall asleep soon.
I’m currently watching “Because I Said So” It’s a great chick-flick way to end my fun-filled day.
Oh yah, so I’ve been going through some blog remodeling/face lifts lately. I feel like I needed to kick it up a notch, if you know what I mean. Some more changes soon to come, but it’s all work-in-progress. Bear with me, folks!
