Healthy Steps:
First off, today is my husband and my 3rd wedding anniversary and we're having cake of some sort! And that is okay. This is our first anniversary spent together. I did really well last week and hit my 5lb milestone since starting Weight Watchers. Next is my 10lb which might also be my 5% goal milestone! I actually lost 6lbs at the last meeting since beginning a month ago and my 5% goal is 11 lbs.
This coming week is going to be a bit of a challenge on me. For one, I am NOT tracking my food this week. I've been tracking every morsel that has crossed my lips for about 5 months now and at times I feel as though all I think about all day is food. I have decided to take a chance and concentrate on good portion control and exercise. I've really been lacking in exercise and I think it's what I need to get through to the big number losses each week that I know I am capable of. My plan is to take some "me time" in the evenings and go to the gym while the hubby and baby stay home. Now that I'm losing weight I feel it is time to do some weight lifting. Plus, I always feel on top of the world after I've finished lifting weights! I could use some of that feeling to help me push through the cardio.

My Weekly Weight Watchers Progress Report:
{The orange thing is a multi-vitamin. I have trouble taking mine. They make me sick. I need to find another brand. The drop is healthy oils. I also have problems with this one since I don't cook with oils, but I need healthy fat to lose fat so I need to work on that too.}
