Week 8 Weigh In Results: I Made Goal Baby!!!
I lost 0.8 lbs on my final weigh in of February for a total of 17.3 lbs since Jan.2!!!! My goal was 16 lbs and I worked my butt off for every bit of it. This is somewhat of a milestone for me because 20 lbs is the most I have ever lost on Weight Watchers on my own. Also, I lost that 20 lbs in 12 weeks and it seems I will reach that goal within the next two weeks (Week 9 or 10). I am 12 lbs away from Onederland, the magical place you enter when you finally break the 200 lb mark and enter the 100's. I haven't seen those kind of numbers in over ten years. Let me just say, I will feel skinny at 199!!!!
So without further ado, I will show you my progress pics for February!Progress Pics: February 2012

Negative Energy: Keep it Moving!
I have really been struggling lately with this issue, so for Lent I've given up television and negative energy. Let me just say a word about negative talk. I truly believe that people are in your life for a reason and a season. There are a select few that are in your life for the duration, but others are there simply to help you get through new and different life experiences.
But as one of my favorite songs says, "If you ain't making me better, than you just bringing me down." When that relationship is draining your spirit or as my mom says, "stealing the "o" out of joy, then it is time to move that relationship to the section of your mind that is reserved for "small doses of foolishness"! Not saying that they are bad people, I mean, that was your homie. But your time is a terrible thing to waste. It is hard enough trying to stay motivated enough to lose this weight. Please keep it moving!

I see you Chica...Can't wait to see the March pics!!!
Regardless of how long you have known a negative person, in all honesty, they are not our friend. They play that role because as long as we are not doing well or feeling good about our situation(s) they are "there for us"; mainly because it makes them feel better about themselves. As soon as we start rising, they become negative in order to sabotage the progress we are making. Without us, they have to admit to their shortcomings. So don't ever feel bad about eliminating negative people from your life...FREE YOURSELF, lol!!! #TeamMoveB*tch
Well said!!! I'm like "where is this negativity coming from?". I hate sharing my good news sometimes. Then they ask me for help and my way won't work for them. Oh well... My mom showed me a bible lesson about setting and achieving goals and how it could encourage others, or not. It said most people want to lose weight but don't want to put in the work to get it done (story of my life). So when you see some success, be prepared for negativity and don't let it knock me off course. It really does zap my energy, but I'm keeping these folks at arms length. Its funny, my aquaintences have been VERY supportive!!
