The Non Weigh In

I did not officially weigh in yesterday... so I have no weigh in to report, which is a good thing considering I'm up 2 pounds.  The last month I've made an upward trend of about 5 pounds... and while I'm still 5 pounds under my goal weight its time to button down and start losing some weight again.

Not only did I not weigh in, but I missed my Weight Watchers meeting!  I hate it when that happens.  I honestly need it.  Now don't think that I was skipping because of the gain... uh...I would never do that!  I had a hot date with the dryer repairman, only to find out that excess lint was my problem... glad I paid $98 for that!  Despite missing my meeting though, I was happy that Thursday rolled around and allowed me to "reset".  I love fresh starts, and I feel good about this week already!

I'll be honest, its the first real week that I'm going to be working the PointsPlus plan since we switched to the week after Thanksgiving  There was all sorts of Christmas and New Years, and then the trip to Portland and the wedding last week, and while I was trying to make smart choices 80% of the time, I'll be honest I wasn't tracking every single day - I wasn't being religious about the plan.  I've done my complaining about it, and now its time to see if I can actually lose weight on this plan... right now I'm 15 pounds away from my ultimate goal of 155.  I'm ready to get there and stay there.  You know what?  It feels good to be on track again... I forgot how much I actually sometimes like doing this (sick, I know right?).

Tomorrow morning courtesy of Jen @ PriorFatGirl I'll be attending the One Breath One Step get together in Minneapolis.  Its my first time ever doing something like this, and I will be honest I have major butterflies in my stomach tonight... I'm not sure if I'm nervous, excited or a little of both.  I do know that I can't wait to tell you guys all about what I did and learned.  I have my notebook and my camera, and I'm going to put on the least scared face I own, as I walk in the door tomorrow.

Have a great weekend!
