As is customary I had my Weight Watchers meeting this morning and was happy to be down 1lb so I made up for last week and lost a bit more. I worked quite hard this week and I can tell that it’s getting more difficult to shift this weight because my losses are getting smaller as I get closer to my goal (now 12lbs away).
Even though I haven’t been losing much in terms of numbers I can tell that my stretching and exercises are paying off more because my pants I bought last month are getting looser (always a good sign).
My plan for this week is to invest in two 5lb weights to start working on my arms in order to get some sort of definition because I hate my flabby arms.
Hmm…. the only other thing in the past week that was exciting on this front is that I started volleyball again and am now working out at least 6hrs a week with my team. I have a huge bruise on my side from showing off and unnecessarily diving for a ball during practice. =) Several of the girls noticed I’d lost more weight since they’d last seen me at the beginning of December and that felt great. Actually, my flatmates and classmates have noticed too – lots of people comment about how different I look from when I arrived in the fall… and that is definitely giving me more motivation to press on.

It amazes me that you are able to concentrate on points and weight loss (do you find that you are walking more there?) while you are living in a foreign country and busy with your studies. Kuddos to you! I can really relate as I am trying to lose a bunch of weight- I look forward to being 12lbs from my goal – check in with me next year!
Keep up the good work Esther, you rock! : )

That always makes a person feel better about life. Almost as much net stress reduction as having a credit card paid off! ;-)
Caught a news story on Yahoo about Jordan’s first “honor killing” this year.
