I"m back on track! Week 10

Well the past month has been quite a month! And I don't even know where to start!

I missed one meeting (Sept. 18) basically because money was short that week. But then went the next week and used my Missed meeting coupon and paid for the current week. I was up 2.8 lbs so back up to 187.2 lbs! EEK!! Still 12 lbs lost in total but yikes.
Although I haven't mentioned this anywhere but AF was also 2 weeks late! And I really thought I could have been preggo. I'M NOT! And I was totally bloated and felt awful.
Plus I was under alot of stress getting ready for a big Opportunity night here in Toronto for Gold Canyon. I had put alot of pressure on myself for it to be a success! And Logan was nursing so much! He has no interest in solids and is still up at night!
Which would all explain why AF was late.

I missed the next meeting again (Oct. 2). But AF showed up that week so I tried to get back on track since my GC meeting was over too.

And I went back today! I was so close to say forget it I"ll go back in the New Year. Life is just too crazy right now with my business and the holidays quickly coming. But I want to do this. I NEED to do this for me! I made Manager with Gold Canyon WOOHOO! And I really want to buy myself some nice business clothes and start feeling professional and just feeling good about the way I look. Not just the mom look ya know?
And with my pregnancy scare I realized I really think I'm done. I want to work my business and be financially stable for my 3 kids now. I'm the only Manager in Toronto now (heck I was the only Gold Demonstrator that I knew of) and the business is there for the taking to take over the GTA. :) And I want to do it!

So back on track!
My weigh in today I lost 5.4 lbs!! Which accounts for my 2.8 lb bloated gain 2 weeks ago. So I lost that and then some. YEAH!

So as of today Week 10 I am at 181.8 lbs with a total loss of 17.4 lbs. Which leaves me 1.6 lbs away from my 10% Target! And I hoped to loose that by October 25 since I have a wedding that day. So I'm on track.
I also have no more Missed meeting coupons so I need to go everyweek! I have 3 GC parties this month so with my commission I'm going to ensure I pay for my WW weekly meetings.
