In September I rejoined Weight Watchers. It is true, I gained weight this summer. At my lowest last year I was 187 but hung around 190-193 most of last year and this spring. When I started training for the marathon I gained 7 lbs and yes I got up to 199.4 on Labor Day weekend. NOT GOOD. NOT GOOD PEOPLE. You can see it in my face and in my clothes.
The good thing is I’m nipping the issue in the bud. I rejoined Weight Watchers because I don’t want to be overweight. I’m also not making excuses. I hate excuses. Stress, work, traveling yes they make life tough but they should not be excuses, well at least for me. I might be a lot of things but a bag of excuses I’m not. I own my weight, gains and losses. And I’m still proud the weight that I have lost and kept off for two years now.
I lost 3.4 lbs in September. I ended September 196. I’m back in the groove!

I just adore your Talbot’s skirt in 2nd photo down. It just reminds me of a beautiful piece of art.
And I so love and congratulate you on your “no excuses” “I can do this attitude”. I’ve lost 15 pounds since July 4th and I know the dedication and determination it takes to make these life changes. As a non-active person and non-exerciser I’m just in awe of your athletic accomplishments! So many of us are right there with you and it helps to encourage each other. Thanks for posting so honestly.

Thanks Lisa. Congrats on 15 lbs. I know when I lost my first 15 lbs it made me feel so much better.

I like everything this month but the black and orange. Just can’t get into it. Loved the striped CABI top look and the hugo boss skirt with oxford.

I like the last outfit, the black and white shirt with skirt, the blue oxford with the skirt, and the jeans outfit.
I liked the orange shirt and black pants until you said Halloween and now that’s all I see. 😉

My favorite look is the black and white stripe top with the black skirt – you look FANTASTIC in that outfit!

Okay, I’m torn between two favorites. One is the neutral black tie-neck top and brown skirt look, the other is the colorful purple belted cardi with the blue skirt look. Both are perfectly chic!
