Nailed It!

At the beginning of the year, I took a look at the calendar to figure out when I would need to hit my goal weight in order to achieve lifetime status with Weight Watchers by the one year anniversary of when I signed up (March 18, 2014).  Backing into it, I basically had to hit goal by the end of January.

I can do this.... that's what I told myself.  I only had about five pounds to go.

This week, I hit goal.  (I actually was a 0.6 pounds under my (clothed) goal.  And I did it on a week that I was traveling.  Nailed it!!!  I was in New York all week and was really trying to be super good.  I took my workout stuff and I was going to make good decisions this week while I was gone.  I didn't know if I was going to be home by Saturday to weigh in or not.  I started looking for a place to weigh in while I was gone.  I found a Weight Watchers near East Syracuse (where I was Thursday and Friday).  I decided on Friday morning after my second T25 video that I was going to go weigh in.  I almost waited and didn't go because I nearly ate an entire piece of Oreo Cheesecake from the Cheesecake Factory on Thursday night.  But I went instead.  I really was feeling pretty great.

So, I went to the store, weighed in and to my surprise, I lost 2.8 pounds this past week.  Nailed it!!  I stood in the store and nearly cried (I totally did cry as I was walking back to my car!!)  I got these fancy charms from the super nice lady at the store.

And now my six weeks of maintenance begins and I feel really good about hitting lifetime status by my one year WW anniversary.  Yeah for me!!
