Hey there. I am waiting for the graphics on my LJ to disappear - you know - with this PB thing - and that has not happened. I have not moved my images yet. So I wonder when that will happen. I should not jinx it. I will move things when I have to - not before. I have accounts set up other places but I am really lazy and don't feel like doing this yet. It makes me want to abandon this whole graphics thing and just not do it anymore. Really - why bother? I love graphics but I don't feel like reloading all my images. It took me years to load all those to PB. Can I rant for a moment here? They really suck. /end rant.
So onto more exciting news. I have lost 101 pounds! 71 on Weight Watchers and 30 on my own. Go me! It really has worked for me and I feel like I have totally made the lifestyle shift in my mind. I like eating this way. I plan my week and I just do it. Don't get me wrong. I still love food but I think about it differently. This week for example - I totally enjoyed a piece of strawberry pie - but I did not overeat and I counted it. That is all it takes. I feel much better being lighter and have way more energy. I think I get more done now too. So that is all good. I cannot recommend Weight Watchers enough. It costs a bit but they have the plan down. And you don't have to buy their stuff either. I do buy some things but I mainly eat my own food. They do have some snacks I like.
Anyway. Doing well on that.
I am really bored at work. I think I need to make a change. I have my resume updated and ready to go and I am looking. Don't mention this on FB. I want to stay at the Uni but get a different job. I need more to do. Or maybe I find things too easy and have just mastered what I do. I think I will take some classes too and grow that way. Best to keep busy and gain some skills.
So there is that. I am atrophying at work. Never a good thing.
So that is all I have. I cannot wait for the AiA reveal. That is coming up soon. I hope my person likes my story! I never know how that will go. I look forward to reading the stories. That is always fun.
I hope all is well with you there. Have a great week!

Do you do the meetings too? Or just the online app? I've had a really rough couple of months in that area and need a boost of some kind. *sighs*
My AinA story is inching along, had to get an extension too.

I do both the online thing and the meetings. I love going to the meetings and people are so supportive and the instructors are great. If you need a boost then doing online and meetings is the way to go. Face to face interactions and the weight loss thing are a great motivator. I love the online tools too and they have an online community called Connect where people post to get motivated too but the weekly meeting really keeps me on track. I highly recommend it. The whole thing costs about 44.00 a month. Not too bad and you don't have to buy their food or anything - you do it all with real food. They will show you their products but you don't have to get them unless you want them. I buy a couple of helpful snacks that I like but that is it really.
So that is the deal with the WW. I have really liked it and I am now 8 pounds away from goal. Almost there! Let me know if you join and we can chat more about it.

How long did that amazing weight loss take you? That is wonderful, Jane. Really well done!!!

It took me about a year to lose this weight and WW has been great for it. Kept me right on track. I have about 8 pounds left til I reach goal. I have to say I am really determined to reach goal and get my lifetime membership. Yep!
Sorry I took so long to comment back to you! I forgot to check here!
