Well, I can't report a loss for this last week (in fact, I gained roughly a pound), but last night's meeting was incredibly inspiring. The leader, Sheila, seemed to, yet again, tailor-make the meeting just for me.
I only have a foggy recollection of what was written on the board, but we had several discussions giving really good tips about tracking your points, making it more convenient, and inspiring to keep to your tracker.
Frankly, I haven't been tracking my points continuously, as I was in those first "losing" months. I'm getting back to it now. Here, at my desk, my Points-tracker is sitting in front of me, opened slightly, and I can see exactly what I've injested for the day, and I can see that I have 20 points left.
Also, I went grocery shopping last night. I cannot stress the importance of preparedness for me. If I have enough milk and cereal and granola bars and frozen meals and water, I'm good - if I don't, well, California Pizza Kitchen is always the next-best option, you know what I mean?
I left the meeting last night with renewed determination. I want to hit my 10% before another month has gone by. I'd like to hit it in three weeks, but I'll settle for four if that's what it takes. I'm trying to recreate that mindset I had when I first embarked on WW. So, I'm sticking to my points, I'm going to drown in drinking water for awhile, and I'm going to go out and take some walks in the evenings. This is all easy stuff, and I know it works, so I'm just going to DO it!
