And that's just the events that I KNOW about ... others will pop up ... and of course all the emotions that go along with them.

I'm glad we're planning to stategize together in our weekly WW meetings all the way through!

Even Though

Personal goals this week:
Track everyday
exercise three times
aim at a 1.5 pound loss on the scale EVEN THOUGH .... even though my 20th wedding anniversary is this week.

10 Weeks to Target

Week One goals met (even exceeded) !!
Tracked EVERYday
Exercised three times
Lost 2.8 pounds !!

What I'm Heading Toward

It's near impossible to hit a target that you do not first aim at.

aim (v) point, as for shooting; intend; act of pointing; intention or goal

My personal goals for this week:
track every (EVERY) day
exercise 3 times
aim at a 1.5 pound loss on the scale


My personal short term challenge:
to lose a total of 50 pounds by the first anniversary of the day I joined WW (January 4, 2011) ... l have 11 weeks and 17.4 pounds to go.
