31 Days: 9 pounds, 6 to go

I officially completed my one month mark on Weight Watchers yesterday and I’ve lost a total of 9 pounds! I can’t believe it! I’m definitely on the right track with an average of -1.8 pounds a week but I’m a little bit nervous about the last 6 pounds. As they say...the last 5 are the hardest to lose!

While I find Weight Watchers to be one of the more realistic diets, the last month hasn’t been easy. There are days when I just want to “phone it in” and eat/drink whatever I want and skip the gym. But, that crazy conscience of mine pushes me to stay focused because I’m determined to reach my goal weight. So, to stay motivated, I treat myself with a drink here or there on a weekday, I indulge in a little bit of fried food, I eat a lot of Golden Spoon and I take at least one day off a week from doing any form of exercise. Eat healthy, exercise, take a day off and repeat.

And, as always, more pictures of food....
