hate to love or love to hate weigh in days? either way...

good news is that i was 1 pound down, which isn't very much at all, but WAY better than last week's news. which puts me at a total of 15.6 pounds down...not what i had hoped for after 9 weeks. but it's definately better than if i had never started, and 15 pounds is a decent amount. 25 more pounds to go for my christmas goal....

this last week i was definately not being uber smart about food. i blamed it on being upset about the bad weigh in, but basically i just had my head out of the game. work was total shit all week, and food is the ol' comforting friend. and i didn't work out nearly as much as normal, so i should be grateful for the one pound.

my goal this week is to drink sufficient water, and get back to eating more veggies. i think those are the two main things that will get me back where i should be right quick. well, that and getting my butt back out there on the track in the mornings!

the great news about all of this is that i FELT different this last week...sure my mouth was happier some of the time...but physically and mentally i felt not nearly as good as i have been since starting WW. i even found myself thinking "if i could take this week back, i totally would." i definately lacked the energy and zest that i've had the last several weeks. so i'm very encouraged that a week of moderate swaying only made me want to really go full force on plan rather than pull me even further off track.

and thanks rachel for basically holding my hand through all this...i seriously have no idea how i'd do this without you!
