Yesterday was not only the first weigh in of 2011 but it was also my first official weigh in since I veered off course during Christmas. With that said, I squinted my eyes while I stepped on the scale waiting to hear the verdict. Joyce my regular lady was not there (which also gave me a bad feeling, stupid I know but these things tend to matter to me). I opened my eyes and much to my surprise I was down .2 lbs! Normally I'd probably question such a tiny loss BUT this week I felt a sense of relief, gave the lady a high five and jumped off that scale!
So now the super exciting news!!!! After my "glorious" weigh in I was gathering my things and putting on my jacket, hat, scarf... yes, I hate winter already and it's only January, when this woman approached me. She introduced herself as the assistant editor of Weight Watchers magazine and she was there to cast a few people for success stories to be published in the mag. She asked if I'd be interested and if I had a few minutes to chat and for her to get some PHOTOS! I was in my most natural state as I had just come from Pilates but I figured, um, no brainer here, heck yea I'm interested! We talked for a few mins, she basically asked me questions about where I started, how many lbs until I was at goal, if I was doing the program alone or with a friend, etc. After the Q & A she snapped probably about 10 pics of me, face shots, some EXTREMELY close and BODY shots as well, yikes! I should hear back in a few weeks if the Editor picks me and then it's a real photo shoot, a full story and I'd be published in the mag!!! Watch out Jennifer Hudson... there's a new girl in town!
***total weight loss to date 29.6 lbs***
