Surprise Weigh-in

So yesterday I realized that my WWers was cancelled this week, so I drove down to NJ's. Unfortunately I hadn't prepared...the day before weigh in I always eat lower sodium foods. It is amazing how much water weight you can carry...and I wear the same outfit each time. But, I hadn't weighed in since August 5th and I didn't want to wait yet another week. So, even though I had eaten potato chips and cottage cheese - both very high in sodium - on Monday, and I was wearing a pants and top outfit instead of my usual dress, I went ahead and weighed in. I found the scale leering back at me with a 0.6 gain. But, considering, I guess it wasn't so bad :) So I am 6.6 pounds from my "before cruise weight" goal. I have 5 weeks -- I think I can still do it :P

On a positive note - Nathaniel lost another 2+ pounds. For a total lost of nearly 40 pounds. He looks wonderful and is feeling good too :) I am so proud!

NJ is doing awesome! And so are you! That sodium will get you everytime. And don't forget that it could be a difference in the scales too, right? Anyway, keep up the good work!
