New Low

Yay, I finally did it...I reached a new low!  Since I restarted my battle in November 2009, my lowest weight was 269 lbs in November of 2010, as of today I weigh 268 lbs!  Now I feel like I can finally finally be working in the right direction again, I am not playing catch up, I am breaking new ground for myself.

Thank you Ayla for a fabulous weekend and an incredible workout and swim which I know made the difference for me this week.

Now, having said that, I do believe that many years ago (I'm not even sure when it was, maybe 2000) the very first time I ever tried Weight Watchers I did really well and though I don't remember exactly, I am pretty sure I got to 250 lbs, so when I get back there, that too will be incredible.  I plan to do that this summer :)

Visiting with Ayla this time I was 20 lbs less than when I visited in November and I sure could feel the difference.  And in just under 3 weeks I am going to Arizona and I am at least 20 lbs less than I was when we went last year.  I like knowing that and perhaps I will feel a difference in my comfort on the plane as well.   I can't wait to go.

By the way, I bought the most fabulous shoes right before I left Edmonton!  I have never spent $200 on a pair of shoes before (and likely shouldn't have this time) but I absolutely love them.   Actually, that's not entirely true, I did spend about the same on my new running shoes.  Here are both pairs.

And here were my backseat buddies this weekend :)

Today I am at home with my puppy.  He missed me like crazy for the 2 nights I was away, not sure how he's gonna handle the week in Arizona soon!  Poor guy.

I hope everyone has a great week.
