10 down.... 40 to go!

So... I'm down 10 WHOLE pounds! Although, day to day my weight is fluctuating 2 pounds due to water weight but I'm sooo excited!  I was really discouraged the first 2 weeks of January! I was "counting my points" and logging my meals and the weight wasn't going anywhere! So  I reevaluated my point consumption amount. I decided to drop 2 points because during the day although I stand all day and move around I'm not "walking" -- so I dropped two points and the next week the weight was coming off! I lost 4 pounds and then six.... I was ecstatic! During that week Thomas and I did a lot of things that got us up and active. 

• Monday -- we walked home from Target! Which was about 2.8 miles. 
• Tuesday -- I walked 3 miles on campus.
• Wednesday -- We rested. 
• Thursday -- We walked around 5 miles on campus.

It was so nice to be able to finally see the results. Week 4 has been another successful week. I lost another 3.9 pounds. It's so nice to see the number dropping both on the scale and starting to see the results visually too. Thomas as been really, really supportive during this whole month. He's been such a sweetie and very willing to get up and go walking or drive to get me some frozen yogurt when i needed a few extra points. *Thanks for being so great honey! I couldn't do it without you!*

January was a good month for me but I'm looking forward to really buckling down in February and seeing ever better results.
