Well...as some of you may remember...I joined weight watchers last week! Well, Thursdays are my weigh in day...and so I stopped at my dr's office yesterday to get weighed. I like it to be official...I don't own a scale here at home....cuz with my old wood floors that are uneven etc...I never get a true amount. So that is why I go to my dr and get weighed on their scale.
So, I get on the scale...praying that I at least lost a pound or two...just so I don't get discouraged cuz I have been really sticking to this. Well...turns out...I lost 5.5 lbs!!!! WOOT! Now...I know that 1. it is not all pure fat that I lost and 2. that I am not going to lose that much each week. But I think it is a definite start and to God be the glory!!! I have prayed about this...and I know His hand is in it and helping me. I can do ALL things through Him who strengthens me! (Phil. 4:13)
My husband has been super encouraging...as well as my sister, who is doing this along with me! I also have a great group of friends that have been sooo supportive and encouraging all through this! I thank God that he put all these people in my life. They have been such a blessing to me.
So...I just really wanted to share my news with you all. You all have also been so supportive and encouraging to me....and I am soo thankful for you!!! :o) I hope this isn't seen as bragging at all....or prideful. This is just a way for me to get excited about this and stay motivated!
**I also wanted to add...if my blog looks cut off to you...i am so sorry!!! Sometimes it take a lil bit to load....so you may have to refresh it or something. I use the Firefox Web Browser, and I can see it all. I hope you can too and I apologize if you can't!!!! xoxo
Yay for you! I'm so proud of you Katy... and I don't think it's wrong at all if you are a little proud of yourself- you have a right to be. Losing weight is a VERY HARD thing to do, and you should brag just a little!
