I am Woman... Hear me roar!

I am so excited! I went in to wi this morning feeling like I had probably gained.  I ate out quite a bit this week (2-3 times, I can't remember LOL) and it was all fast food. :-/.  I was pretty sure that the scale was going to hate me.  I weighed before I left (I know "bad kimmy") and it showed me weighing about what I did last week when I got home from WW. So I figured now loss or a small gain..... Well was I surprised! I lost 1.8 lbs.  :)  I earned my 30 lb star- -31 lbs to be exact! Wowzer!!  This puts me also just 1 lb away from my 10% and also my mid July goal of 50 lbs- only 19 lbs to go. :) :)  Granted I still have 164 lbs to go LOL But that is a much smaller number then 195 lbs.  That's where I started.  When I started this journey in Feb. I was over 300 lbs.  323.2 to be exact.  I had no high expectations of myself because, as many of you know, I have been a Weight Watchers member SEVERAL times. I've never had the motivation to make the program work for me before. I'd lose a few lbs and then gain and gain and gain.  Then I'd just give up instead of redoing the program to make it work.  So this time I went all in. I bought a digital food scale and between that and my measuring cups I make it work.  The food scale has been a life saver.  I also drink a ton of water.  I'm not really even sure how much I drink now, but I know it's a lot because that is all I drink now, except for the small amount of un-sweetend tea that I occasionally drink.  I have been coke (the legal kind) free for 2.5 weeks now.  I'm pretty proud of that.  So now I've added 2 more marbles to my lbs lost jar.  Total of 31 marbles.

So since I've lost 31 lbs and I am in love with the idea of being a  Proverbs 31 woman I thought I'd post a little scripture. :)
                          Proverbs 31:10-12
10 Who can find a virtuous woman?
        
For her price is far above rubies.
11 The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her,
        
so that he shall have no need of spoil.
12 She will do him good and not evil
        
all the days of her life.
