cheerleader star

When I logged into Weight Watchers my 1.6 pound loss today, the little star in the weight tracker window began to jump up and down indicating that I had lost my first 5 pounds. I couldn't bring myself to close the window; I just loved watching that red star jumping for me. It occurred to me that I did the exact same thing when I walked out of the building after learning of my loss - I almost did a cartwheel to my car I was so excited. After disappointing results the last two weeks- a gain after Austin and a mere .2 lb. loss last week- my 1.6 was just exhilerating today.

Is it that my life is so dull that a weight loss brings me excitement? Is it because I feel it's something I have been working on so I'm excited when my work produces results? I'm not exactly sure why I had the desire to jump and shout, but I did.

I felt like a star and I wanted to lead a cheer for me! Yea, team!
