Feeling very good about this week's weigh in (especially after my last blog post). I also hit both my current Weight Watchers goal (the second one I set) and achieved a WW milestone: 10% weight loss!
This week's weight loss: -1.4 lbs
Total weight loss: -16.7 lbs
That's over 10% weight loss AND my BMI (which is not a perfect measure for everyone, I know, but directionally helpful) is also down more than 10%.
I set my next WW goal less aggressively, just to get me to my next real short term goal. I'd like to make sure I'm solidly at -20lbs by Week 30. That's 6 weeks from now, to lose 3.3 lbs. Now some may say "That's no problem - why not go for something harder?" But I'm definitely still feeling like I could revert or plateau, and I honestly think that a goal of half a pound a week is achievable, but certainly hasn't always been the case. So, if I can get to 2o lbs by Week 30 (March 15th), I will really feel like I can focus my last half of this journey on the dreaded "Last 10 Pounds" that everyone struggles with...
For a change this week, I'm thinking about trying a spin class, maybe even as early as tonight. Some good friends have recently started spinning (albeit at 5 in the morning with a mean instructor) and seem to be enjoying it... of course, Robert does it, but he's in a different class of human when it comes to stuff like that, so I can't really use him as a barometer of whether or not *I'll* like it. Or survive it. So I hope to have a report on that later on in the week. The only challenge for trying it tonight is it would be before my pilates reformer class, and so it would give me a short break to shower and clean up before that class... maybe I'll make it?
Thanks for reading!

for spin class, for the love of mike, please wear your padded biking shorts. or else, your girly bits will hate you for about a week -- hence you might hate spinning. i love it, it's really fun, and the time goes fast, even though it hurts, and you are sweating buckets.
