I didn't avoid weight watchers and found out that I gained 1.8 pounds. It is what is is and as a great blogger once said (Run4change) this is just a small plot on the journey. I know why I gained. I will learn from this gain and move on to make the rest of my journey successful. Remember no matter what journey you are on do not let a little mistake get you down. A couple of weeks ago I was ready to throw in the towel, yesterday I was ready to avoid everything. Today I let out a sigh of relief. I faced the bad and guess what? It wasn't as bad as I thought. I will learn from it and move on. Next week will be much better. I guarantee it.
Goals for this week:
Track everything I eat
Workout 5 days
Have fun at my 5k next Saturday and try and beat my best time of 50 minutes.
Have a blessed weekend.
I started losing weight in 2008 and over the next two years lost 106 pounds. In 2010 my life changed when I got diagnosed with Crohn's Disease. Over the next two years I gained back 100 pounds. I'm taking my life back. Today is the first day of the rest of my life. Today is my fresh start and it can be yours too.

You know you did a great thing! It is hard to face the facts when you know what they are!!!
Anytime I do this, I learn about myself and being truthful and having courage to face my flaws..
May this week be a better one for you (me too!)
Can't wait to hear about your week!
Thank you so much for your words of encouragement. I just emailed our friend Jason and told him that I feel so much better today even with a gain. Facing what I once would have avoided was so good for me. I seriously feel like a new person today. I would have so avoided this in my past, but I didn't today and becuase of that I am a better person. Thanks for your encouragement yesterday and today. It really helped.
I liked your post. You had such a confidence about you. Good luck at your 5K. You will do great.
Hi, thanks for the comments on my first race report. Looks like you are doing great things.
What grade are you student teaching in? I teach 5th grade in Tucson, AZ. They are usually a pretty good group of monsters :)
Hope you have a great 5k! Looking forward to following you.
you've got a great attitude about this - there's always going to be ups and downs, but you just keep pushing through. good for you!
hey. what 5k are you doing?
M, to answer your question I am doing the BUNNY DASH in Palatine, IL. Should be fun and the Easter Bunny is going to be there.
