First Post!

I've been doing Weight Watchers for 11 weeks today and decided I needed a place to talk about everything that goes on during this weight loss journey. I also love the double edged sword that is my blog title lol. So here it goes...

I Joined the WW program on April 1st, after years of struggling with my weight and even at one point loving it. I mean, I love who I am but I was finally tired of being the one out of breath or feeling like the token fat friend. I lost 6.6 pounds my first week which I think gave me a real boost and I fell in love with WW.
Then the closer the wedding got, the less time I had to cook and even think, let alone think about what I was putting in my mouth. I took a 3 week "break" from weighing in and was terrified to go back. In those 3 weeks away from my meetings I loaded up on the pizza, BK and McDonalds all with the wedding as an excuse. When I went back to my meetings low and behold, somehow I only managed to gain 1.4 pounds, a small miracle if you ask me.
Last week, my first week "back" I lost 4 pounds and overshot my personal 20 pounds lost goal. I have never in my life lost that before and it felt like a million bucks! I was a little scared to weigh in today as yesterday was Canada Day. With Canada day in Fredericton comes dundundun....curly fries! I ended up eating 1/2 a plate of them, however, it was better than the entire plate of them I ate last year. But I made myself go and lost 3.8 pounds!!!

I HIT 25 POUNDS TODAY!!!

I was glowing at the scales i'm sure lol
