Okay, this losing 2 pounds in one week thing is HARD. I keep wanting to go have a snack and then realizing that no, my tummy isn't even actually hungry for a snack, and so I'm better to wait till my body is asking for it . I didn't realize how often I was eating just cuz I had points available - which is okay - but when trying to lose 2 pounds in one week, I have to be as careful as possible. Oh, I really really really want a cookie right now.
But, maybe if I stay on the computer here long enough I'll be able to convince myself not to.
In Japanese, there's a word - "gambatte" (have I told this story already?) - it means keep going, don't give up, fight fight fight, stick to it, plug along, etc. Its really a great word that we don't have in english. But when someone is tired or sick or down or whatever you can tell them to Gambatte and its a great encouragement.
So, that's what I'm saying to myself right now and to the rest of you out there -
GAMBATTE!
We can do it.
(phew) I think I managed to talk myself out of that cookie.

Love your new look!
Aren't you glad that we don't have to concentrate that hard all the time??? I wouldn't have lost more than 20 lbs had that been the case.
Keep up the great work!
So, just for kicks, you have already lost the average weight of a 2 year old and are in the process of loosing the average weight of American's annual Cheese consumption...next up: A cinder block!

Hey Colleen....
keep 'er going, keep 'er going, keep 'er going....you can do it! I am so, so, so proud of you honey. You are my inspiration. You deserve a huge huge medal for all the hard work you're doing. Just keep thinking about that bag of fat that we had to pass around at Weight Watchers - and pat yourself on the back, that you have practically lost 3 of those!!! Way to go!!
Love Mom:)
