I love Mondays

I know I'm probably alone with this one, but I really love Mondays. I have for a long time. The kids go back to school, the husband goes back to work, and the house is mine. All mine.

And since I started Weight Watchers, I love Mondays because it is the day I get to weigh-in. Get to? Yes. It is like my little reward for the week to see that progress.

This week's reward? I reached my 25 lb milestone! Yes; I lost another 2.2 lbs this week, putting me at a total of 25.6 lbs lost since July 13, 2009. And yet, I'm still over 200. That was what my husband asked me (again) last night. At dinner, I was telling my son how much weight I had lost. As of yesterday it was 23.4 lbs. My youngest son was quite impressed, "Wow, Mom. That's really good!" Gotta love those kids! Then, my husband has to pee in the punch, "...but you're still over 200, right?" Why can't they just be supportive?

Thank goodness he returned to work this morning. No wonder I love Mondays so much!
