Another losing week!!

I know I've been very bad about posting lately. I've had a very exciting life going on. For those of you that know me know that excitement doesn't happen often:) On Sunday my SIL had her first child and I was fortunate enough to be able to be in the room the whole time. It was an amazing experience. So I've been busy helping her out and haven't had time to do much of anything else.
I did go to my weigh in today and I lost another 1.4 which brings my total to 22.2. I'm hoping I can be really diligent this week and hit 25. What I'm so proud about it that I've consistently lost every week. Some weeks have been small losses but I lost all the same.
Last weeks meeting was about negative thoughts. We've all had them, we all have them. They contribute to our image of ourselves. I know in the past it has hurt me. I've never thought much about myself. I was either too fat, too ugly too this, too that. Sometimes it helped,motivating me to do something about a situation. But mostly it just made me very unhappy. I tried very hard this week to not let negative thoughts control me. If I had a negative thought I would do or say something to remind myself of how far I've come. I would get out my weigh in book and look at how much I've lost. I tried on my fatter clothes, and marveled at how they were hanging off of me. I don't want to spend anymore wasted time on bad thoughts about myself.

This weeks meeting was about music and how it can affect how we feel. Let's face it if you hear up beat music you can't help but dance and move. Which when we move it will help us lose. So be a loser and turn the music on and DANCE!!! Live Life to it's fullest.

That was the theme of our last meeting as well. I love music and have no problem with putting on some music and dancing around the room! Fun!
