Happy December 1st

Yesterday marked exactly 10 months since my annual physical at the doctors.  Always a fun day.  I had tried to lose some weight prior to that day but was not overwhelmingly successful.  Although in hindsight as to the past 10 months.  I really don't know what I was trying to accomplish in that short period of time after the holidays.
I can safely say that since that day (and this is according to their scale versus my scale - and we all know that there can be issues with that so maybe it is not as safely as I think but anywho) I have lost 18 pounds.  I can't even believe that I got to that point that I had that much to lose.  Go figure.
I had been trying to get to that Athena weight for so long and now I am officially Athena less 6.  How crazy.  I am one pound less than my lowest weight from the "my dad is dying from cancer diet"...  And I am inspired to lose even more.
For one reason I am still not at the goal I wanted to be at.
And second of all, once I get to that goal I could probably find a 8 to 10 more pounds.  Now that would be extreme but...  HAH - that would have me at the weight where I used to think I needed to lose weight.  How we just don't know what we don't know.

So I have a bin of Weight Watchers stuff and I have a notebook filled with a year's worth of notes.  I am going to take some time this morning over my coffee to go through them all and find some ways to get myself up and motivated for the next 4 pounds.

YAY ME!
