Hello everyone! I am currently buried under final papers and wedding decorations (my brother is getting married this summer!).
How was my week?
Wellll…
My week was pretty good! I had a lot of things going on, so I wasn’t able to get on here and blog. But I have missed all of you! 
I lost a pound! That puts me officially at 299. Weight Watchers re-calculated my weekly points, so now i’m down to 35 food points a week. It’s really gratifying to see all of these numbers decreasing! My BMI is 58.39. It’s still up there but definitely going down week by week!
Can you believe I have been at this for about 20 weeks already? Time has flown by for sure. When I look at my 1 pound weight loss this week… it sounds kind of … eh. Know what I mean? But when I look at where I was …. I am completely humbled. I am NOT where I used to be. I have 20 weeks of weight loss (even if a few of those were plateaus and paltry gains) to show for myself.
My husband told me that he can tell I am losing weight. He said my hips and bum are smaller! I was so excited to hear that!
I will be back in blogging-action at the beginning of next week. I just wanted to take a moment and say “hi” and update everyone on my progress!
How was your week?
Congrats on the loss. Sounds like you are keeping yourself busy with the papers and helping with the wedding. Hope you have a great day!

Isn’t it amazing how slowly the weeks go by, a pound at a time, but when we look back the 20 weeks seemed to fly!?

Yes it is absolutely amazing! Even though things are moving one step at a time… looking back to where I began, I see that I have made a lot of progress!
It’s good to know that i’m not *starting over* time and time again.

Hiya
Just to say well done on your journey so far and glad to see you have you eyes on the prize. I trimmed down back in 2005/2006 from a very big guy to a healthy weight and am now still slim four years later without going on a diet since!
I look forward to reading more of your blog and well done you.
Mike

Oh my god, congrats on 299!!! That’s incredible and I’m so happy for you! Remember, one pound gone is one pound gone. We aren’t in a race to lose as much weight as possible, we’re just here to lose the weight.
20 weeks is fab! You’ve already beaten the odds and stayed longer than most. Keep on going cause you’re amazing!
