This week’s weight loss progress continues the steady trend towards my goal of losing 24.7% of my weight as of my starting weight in mid-July. As of this morning, I am down 12.3% – essentially at the half-way mark. I’m feeling great and not feeling like I am starving myself at all. I’ve simply just followed the WeightWatchers program and am eating different, healthier options. It’s actually been fun trying different proteins and recipes than we would have normally eaten. Weight loss is a team sport after all, and my family has been incredibly supportive and along on this journey with me.

The nice thing is that when I’m really in the mood for something like pizza or wings or BBQ, it’s totally okay to eat those – just not the whole pizza like I might have before. ? I am very determined to continue these healthy habits beyond my goal weight this time. No more yo-yo effect for me!
