Dodged a Bullet?

I was SO happy (shocked) to see only a .2 gain... basically maintaining through a somewhat stressful, crazy, unstructured weekend. I have my annual physical next week so I'm going to be extra mindful of what I put in my mouth and focus more on exercise.

I'd really like to be closer to 179... I know I shouldn't focus so much on the numbers.... bad habit.

October 12 will be one year since I bought a scale and faced the music with my weight gain 200.4 lbs .... I acknowledge that my diet over the year hasn't been strict, and I even took a whole 3 months off this summer -but since joining WW August 1, I'm totally committed to losing this excess, following the WW plan and not giving up. I started at 200.4 October 12 and I'm now 185.2... That's 15.2 pounds (and maybe more depending on what I accomplish in the week ahead).

I'm honestly OK with it - any loss is good. Sure I'd like the excess weight to be gone NOW; but I've come to terms with how slowly I lose. I'm in it for the long haul.
