Well, it's been a few days since I've posted. Tomorrow is weekly weigh-in day... and I'm looking forward to seeing any additional pounds come off.

I've been noticing a change in my attitude, which is a good thing. I've been acting better. I've been dressing better and I've even started wearing more make-up. Not a whole ton of make-up but I've been making an attempt to look better before I leave the house.

This whole weight loss attempt has made me think about things in a whole different way. And I am so liking it.

My goals are becoming more apparent to me now and I am striving so much harder to achieve them.

I told the hubby on Friday that I wanted to go back to school... he was so proud of me to hear those words. He said that he would need to find out how it could be done since I would get the classes at 90% off... WOW!!! And why didn't I do this before - of yeah, I wasn't sure what I wanted to do and it wasn't until recently that either one of us were able to go back to school so cheaply. He actually can go for free - and I hope that he takes advantage of it. I believe that he is.

I am looking into other ways of getting out of the job that I am currently in... but I need to get a whole lot of other things in order before I can do that. And since I've been the one that has been at my job the longest, until we buy a house, I am stuck where I am at until the mortgage is approved and we have signed on the dotted line. But we need to get a lot of things in order before we even start looking at houses. And I am hoping that we can start that sooner than later.

Well, back to the whole reason I started this blog... my weigh loss.

Things weren't that bad this weekend. I went out on Friday with the hubby to meet up with some old friends and even though we met up at a bar, I didn't have one alcoholic drink. I am so proud of myself. And we went ended up at another bar, I was starting to get hungry. So I ordered so food but thankfully because of the "bone-head" waitress, she didn't remember to put in the order, I was saved from the many points that I would have wasted eating it.

Saturday, I went to two parties and have to say that even though I enjoyed a few chips, I didn't over do it at either house.

Wish that WW would give you kudos for making it through the day while at a party without going over your point value of the day.

And today (Sunday), I stayed at home all day and the hubby cooked a delicious cheeseburger soup... and even though I had breakfast and lunch before hand, I didn't go over my points for the day either.

So I ended my week with not only all my activity points, I didn't touch my weekly points either.

Hopefully tomorrow's weigh in will show me how GREAT I have been doing!
