Selfie Saturday! An au naturale selfie with my sleepy kitty in the background. This morning I did day 1 of The Starter's Exercise Plan. It was a little too easy for me so I may do it morning and night. After I finish I think I'll add another plan to coincide with each other depending how easy or difficult it may be.

First Milestone! I hit my first milestone at Weight Watchers today! Because I've attended 4 straight weeks of meetings in a row, I was given this charm. I'm not sure what it is, hell even my leader didn't know, but I intend to figure out its use. Maybe a keychain? Giant nose ring? Who knows? But I'm super proud of it. Now to my weight. Fridays I weigh in and my goal this week was very small. Since I had a rough start in the beginning of the week with the birthday party and Chevy's I considered a 0.5lb lost would be great. Down 0.6lbs and earned 23 Activity Points! Woot woot! That puts my total loss at 4lbs down. I'm very okay with that. My next goal will be at least 1lb to reach the 5lb loss or 1.6 to make my weight an even 193.0. I made good choices today so far with my food. This morning for breakfast I had 3 strips of turkey bacon and 3 clementines. For lunch, it was carry-out paid for by my work, I ordered a turkey sandwich with lettuce and tomato on a croissant and a pickle slice and side of fries. I will say I regret geting the fries. It was after the order was placed that realized I could have substituted the fries for a fruit salad. But what's done is done. Tonight is my last day at my pharmacy. I was promoted earlier this month and have been slowly phased out. I'm really going to miss my coworkers. They've been like my family for the past 4+ years. They were there when I had lost my weight 3 years ago and unfortunately saw me gain it all back plus 30 more. I hope that the next time I see them, I'll be noticably smaller. This new position will be different when it comes to my eating habits and movement. I'm not sure how much but next week will be my first full week in my new job so we'll see when it's weigh-in time on Fri 2/7.

Freebies! I completely forgot that I "ordered" these items a few weeks ago. It was a nice surprise to find not only my Amazon package that I WAS expecting but also my travel-sized items from Secret and Olay. I was sent Secret Clear Gel Outlast in Completely Clean and Olay Fresh Effects Shine Minimize Cleanser. The cleanser came in perfect timing since I want to take better care of my skin. I'll start using it tonight and see how I like it.

get it together girl

I’ve reached one of the lowest points in my life. The days leading up to my 30th birthday last month I whined and moaned about 'getting old'. Just the playful groaning about not being in my twenties anymore. But lately I've been feeling so low about myself that it's even affecting my marriage. Slowly but surely I've noticed my clothes getting smaller and my waist getting bigger. It's awful and I've never felt so insecure about my body before. It's been a few months since I weighed myself and back then I was at my highest. I decided to check again and what I used to think was a nightmare became my reality. I was 200.2 lbs. With the exceptions of my 2 pregnancies, I've never been over 200 lbs. Yes it's another weight loss blog. We've all seen and read them before so it's not like it's anything new or special. In fact it'll probably be one of the most mediocre blogs you'll ever read because this is the first time I've ever been on tumblr and I'm not even sure how this all works. I think I've experienced my first mid-life crisis (and hopefully my last). I had a nervous breakdown last night and now I know... it's time to get it together girl.
