Yesterday was weigh in day. I knew I had done pretty well all week, but you still get a little nervous to step up onto that scale. I had talked to my friend Tammie at church on Sunday. She had done WW a few years ago and made it to “LIFETIME”, but has put back on some of that weight. I invited her to come back. She said she would think about it. She called on Tuesday and said she would like to come, but would I pick her up so she doesn’t talk herself out of it. So she came along with me. I hope she can do it. I am excited to have a friend to do this with. I did it last time back in 2001-2002 with my friend Bobbi and that was the most successful I have ever been.

My parents are here the next few days and we eat out a lot when they are here, so I have been giving myself mini pep talks ab out making the right choices. Last night my mom suggested we go out and get ice cream cones, and I spoke up and said, “Hmmm, I don’t want to do that. I am on WW and I don’ have the points left.” I was so proud of myself. That is HUGE for me. I usually cave and rationalize why it is okay to do.

I can do this…I am going to do this…
