Weighing In

Well, I went to the office this morning and weighed in.  It was kind of depressing because I weighed even more than I thought I did.  But all I can do is go from here.  The nurse, Iris, was wonderful.  She was extremely supportive.  I think she'll be a great friend through this adventure.  She has put me on her schedule for each week because she would like to be the one to weigh me.  She's going to make me a graph of my weight loss and give me a mini pep talk each week.  Her and her son joined WW last week.  So we'll be sharing recipes and such. 

I am so thankful for all the people that God has set in my life.  For all of you who have talked to me and ecouraged me and prayed for me- please know that I love you very much and you mean the world to me.  It's been so long since I've had genuine friends and I am so grateful for you.  Okay, I'll stop now before I hit the gushing phase and get all sappy and sweet!

I set my first goal as being 25lbs and I'm going with the assumption that I lost 5 lbs this week.  With it being my first week, I'm sure I lost at least that much.  As you can see, I've put a ticker on my blog.  If anyone knows how to put it as a sticky post at the top of my blog please let me know.  I'll update it each week when I weigh in.

I can't type anything without getting sappy. I've already hit the delete button once. I'm here, and I am excited about this journey. When it warms up, let's go walking.
