The weather has been so nice here lately have a bit of heat and windy but that is normal for this time of year. It really is starting to feel like fall:) I may even put my fall decorations out:)

OK!! OK!!! This is a fresh week for me and I am off to another good start! I can do it! Also my thumb has healed enough now that I am going back to CURVES and working my butt off this week:)

Drink lots of water and have a great day!!

WHO's COMING WITH ME??????

I have been in a reflecting mood this week; mainly thinking back over the 27 months since I made lifetime at WW, left WW, and gradually gained back more than I lost.

For whatever reason - hormones, age, metabolism, whatever - I simply cannot go back to eating blindly again.

As I journey back to lifetime this time around, I am trying to find ways to keep this eating style in my life consistently and for life.

Also in my self-reflection, I have come to truly believe for me, meetings are key. Not sure if I will ever get to a point that I do not need them. They aren't for everyone, but they are KEY to me for long-term maintenance.

Maybe this time I will just try to keep it interesting and always pick meetings that are at a location or time that really fits into whatever my life is doing at that time.

Tomorrow is WI for me. I had all my clothes in the laundry, so this morning I ventured into the too-tight section of my closet, and I'm wearing a pair of jeans I have not worn in over a year!!!!!!!!

I weighed in a CURVES on Monday and right at my goal weight! That was a surpise to me~~my WW's WI is this Friday. Just think IF I really ate right on track what I could weigh???

I agree meetings are key, I have not gone since I became a lifer just to weigh in. With vacationss and my DH days off being Fri/Sat this month it put me off his days off next month are Sun/Mon so I will start back to the meetings~~I know that will help me:)

Gotta go and feed Americas Kids

Anyway, thanks for being my anchor you all!

And my thought for the week: If your clothes have hung in your closet long enough, they come back in style! I wore a pair of skinnyleg jeans I have not worn in a long time this week!!!

Ruthie it is nice to see you~~~I agree I like eating healthy too~~I have been off track and almost lost my way. But I have doned good the last few days. I had my WI tonight and~YAHOOO~~I am right at my goal weight!! I was holding my breath!!! My leader told me I have to come back to the meetings they miss me:) Her receptionist said so too:) I told her I will be there starting next week, my DH is going on his Mon/Tues days off so it will be easier. I even helped a couple of gals while I was there. One was beating herself up over a 2 pound weight gain and another was new:) My leader had talked to me about being a receptionist at the meetings now I may think about it. I like helping people. I wish they just had a greeter job:) I speak out alot at meetings where as most gals keep quiet so it makes it harder for the leaders~~~I love to talk so no problem there:)

Have a great weekend I will be helping DD move into her 'upstairs' apt. That will be my exercise for the weekend.
