I finally went in and weighed in today - it had been a month since my last official weigh in.  The Bellingham Weight Watchers moved to a new location last week and it is really nice!  It was fun to go in and they had their mini bars on sale for $2.50 off, so I got a couple of boxes.  The toasted coconut are my favorite - they almost taste like Samoas!  I also got a box of the toffee peanut ones.  I like to take them to the movies with me in place of other candy.

I lost over a pound, which was great, and probably closer to at least 2 pounds since I had gained a tad since last weigh in.  Only 2.1 pounds to my halfway point!  Today is Sam's first day of first grade, so after I weighed in I took Danny downtown and we walked for an hour - he stayed in the stroller for at least 1/2 of it, which was great, then we walked together and looked at things.  It was nice to feel like I am back on track - I only exercised intentionally for the sake of exercise 2 or 3 times over the summer, and that is much easier to do with Sam in school.
