Week 1: Success

It was strange. I woke up this morning excited to go to my Jenny Craig appointment to weigh in. I even dreamed about it. I dreamed I'd lost 9.78 pounds. Strange number. I have no idea where that number came from. I know there is no way, short of joining the Biggest Loser campus, would I EVER lose 9.78 pounds in a week. It's been 6 days, really.

So I stepped out of my fantasy world, and back into real life, and onto the scale. And I was very pleased with a 4.4 pound loss. I'd hoped for an even 5, but I'm happy with 4.4. Who knows? If it had been an actual week instead of 6 days, I might have had a 5 pound loss. Now, I know this isn't a typical weight loss. I know that typical is 1-2 pounds a week. And I'm going to do my darndest to not be disappointed when I do have losses like that.

But for now, I'm taking that 4.4 loss, and I'm letting it inspire me to have a great week again this week!
