I'm illegally accessing Blogger from the office. This will be fast, as any moment the computer police will swoop down upon me, confiscate my computer, and lock me away for eternity.
But I wanted to let everyone know the big news. Not only am I at goal today, I was at goal yesterday!
Yay!
But d'oh! I could have already been celebrating!
Apparently I was temporarily unable to average numbers yesterday. Please don't tell my boss ... I'm supposed to do analysis type things for a living. Averages should be the least of my analytic worries. Ha!
Anyway, did you hear what I said? I'm at my goal weight! My past 7-day average is a tad under 133,* and my goal was to get an average of 133 or below.
Woooo hoooooooo!
* Please feel free to check my math. Because it seems that's necessary, you see.

This blog chronicles my health, fitness, weight loss, and (finally!) weight maintenance adventures. I work out (usually) and follow the Weight Watchers plan (typically). I became a newbie runner (really!) by training using the couch to 5k plan, and soon I plan to train for a 10k (yikes!). I expect I'll also occasionally ramble on about other life experiences and events. There's more to life than fitness, or so I'm told.
About Me
- HappyBlogChick
- I'm a bit of a smart-ass and I love food. Mmmmmm fooooood ... Because of my food-love I had a few pounds of fat to lose and a few pounds of muscle to gain. I lost weight, and now I'm maintaining my weight loss. I'm maintaining the same way I lost - by following the Weight Watchers eating plan, setting weight and fitness goals, and doing cardio and strength training. This description makes me sound fitness-obsessed, and that's not really the case. I could do with a little more fitness-obsession, actually.
Stats, Goals and Gory Details
- Height: 5'6"
- Weight Goal: Staying in the low 130's, below 134 pounds.
- Goal Reached: March 24, 2008 (that's when I stayed at or below an average of 133 for a 7 day period). I've done it before, too. I originally reached goal in Summer 2003. I gained the damned weight back. I reached goal again in Summer 2006. And I gained some of the weight back.
- Other goals: Get fit, get strong, and maintain weight loss once I'm back at goal.
- Heaviest Recent Weight: 152.4 (Fall 2007)
- Heaviest Weight: 167 (December 2002, but also probably in 1998, although I didn't weigh myself then. Call me Cleopatra, queen of denial)
- Exercise Goal: Run 5k April 19th. Training using the Couch to 5k plan. Also aiming for strength training at least 2x/week.
