Well, I have been going at it really hard for about a week and a half here, and it seems to have paid off. I lost 3.4 pounds from my last weigh in until yesterday. So, that's good news. The thing is that I wanted (WANT) to lose 30 pounds by my 30th birthday - next Friday, which means I have to lose 2 whole pounds this week alone. Now, I know its possible, but its gonna take my full full amount of effort.
I have a good friend who joined weight watchers here this summer as well - after having a baby in May. She's lost 28.4 as of this week, and so we decided that if we both hit 30 pounds by next week's meeting, we'll go out for supper together after. How fun would that be? No kids! (or at least no older kids... we might have the babies...) So, there's my double motivation. Now, to make it happen.
For starters, I'm going to choose fruits for snacks instead of baking. Second, I'm going to drink my 6 cups of water every day. And third, I'm going to try my darndest to get moving this week.
So far, so good today.

First, congrats on the great loss. You must be so proud of yourself.
Second, you can do these 2 pounds...its totally doable.
Go Colleen!
That's awesome Colleen! After all your hard work, 2 pounds shouldn't be too much effort...hopefully!
You can do it! Nothing that you have the option of eating this week is worth not having that rewarding feeling of making 30lbs by your birthday! Except for maybe if a 5 star pastry chef came to your house and asked if they could bake you a Tiramisu...to which you could say "could you please come back on my birthday?" Moral of the story is just YOU CAN DO IT!!!
