Well, here I am, past my week two weigh in, and I'm still on Weight Watchers. But something strange is happening this time... I'm actually sticking to the program and losing weight! Last time I did WW, I wasn't a very dutiful member. I paid and attended meetings, but I didn't really stick to my points... I mean, kind of ought to be close enough! But this time, I'm actually doing it, and it's working! At my first weigh in I was down 5.6 pounds, and the second time I was down 3 pounds. So I only have about a pound and a half to lose to get to my 10 pound goal and buy my new dishes!

Of course, I still have another 25 pounds to lose, but I'll come up with a new goal before I get there. I think one thing that's helping this time is apple slices from Costco. I don't know about you, but I love fruit... as long as someone else cleans and slices it for me! These apples come pre-sliced and packaged so I can pull out a package, eat them all and know it's 1 point. How easy is that!

Linda asked where I go to meetings... I went online to weightwatchers.com and put in my zip code. They give you lists of all the meetings in your vicinity and the times for each meeting. (You don't have to join their site to get to this info.) I chose one back at the same place I went the first time, which is a WW center at 51st Ave. & Cactus. I try to go in the evening, depending on what time I can get away from work. :-)

Have a great day... and eat smart!
