I have been skating at least once per week the whole summer. I have joined the Washington Area Roadskaters at least half a dozen times and the other times I skate alone. I even went out and updated my equiptment. I bought new K2s, but had to change the bearings because they were too slow. I also bought a new helmet. I never used to wear them before, but now I do it mainly because I have to little kids at home. I am enjoying skating so much! It also helps me with my other goal which is to lose another 20 lbs.

I have been on Weight Watchers since the end of October of last year. I have lost a total of 51.2 lbs so far. However, I joined and rejoined so many times that my total weight loss on Weight Watchers is over 87 lbs. I am happy that I have stuck with it this long and I don’t plan on stopping…ever.
