Weigh in Wednesday!

I went into weight watchers tonight with a little nervousness. Am I the only one who is always worried about getting on that damn scale?

I ate well, I went running a lot, I drank over 100 ounces of water a day and still I worry? Maybe it is because I have been obese for so long, I have mentally trained myself to despise the scale. Maybe it is just my self doubt that I cannot be successful because I am destined to always be overweight. I don't know what the heck it is but I really am looking forward to the day when I am excited to jump on that scale and welcome it's results.

Well I should have been excited to jump on tonight because let me tell you I LOST 4 POUNDS!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am very excited. This is the first official weigh in for my shrinkvivor contest and I am down 4 freaking pounds. I blame it all on them :) The contest made me push myself further thanks to the wonderful challenges and I really feel like I can do this and stay on track. So thank you once again to my Tribe Nero girls you rock! Lets keep rocking this!!!

So my plan is just to stick with it. I will keep drinking 100+ ounces of water a day and continue to run 4 miles 4 days a week. I want to slowly build up to 5 :) I got my heart set on running more 5Ks this fall and then over the winter training for a 10K in the spring!!!!

Great job, Colleen! I'm so proud of you!!!! I know how you feel about the scale, though. It does get easier, the lower your weight gets. You're doing an awesome job and I'm so glad you're on my tribe!!
