Go Marti

I'm pulling for you and praying for you, Marti. I sat with Marti in her living where she shared with me her Uganda trip plans. Her passion and drive was palpable and I believed her when she said she truly feels God calling her to do this. If the big man is calling the shots, He will see her through. I'm proud of you and glad you will be sharing your experiences with us via blog. Thanks!Still doing my Weight Watchers thing, although I admit I haven't been tracking points or journaling every thing I eat. But I'm still losing! 28 pounds. I need to lose 8 more to reach my goal — becoming a free member who doesn't have to pay $12 per week. That money is a good motivator for me, but I feel really good right now, back in a size 12. Getting that olive oil in every day seems to be a key thing. If I don't have a salad to pour it on, then I pour some on a plate, sprinkle on some Mrs. Dash Italian seasoning and mop it up with a 1-point Alternative Bagel or wheat toast. I was surprised I lost a couple pounds, especially after going to three graduation parties. But the good thing about parties is there is usually a veggie and/or fruit tray. I'm lazy about cutting up fresh stuff so when its ready made, that's cake. I just made sure I filled up at those trays first. I'm also still parking about 200 steps from the office. Onward, soldiers.
