 Hi friends welcome back to my channel and welcome if you are new here happy happy Friday It is 6 20 in the morning And I'm outside of my ww workshop just waiting for those doors to open so that I can go in and of course get all Of the details on the launch of the new programs because I will be here at the very first workshop Where they discussed the new program so that I can immediately come home and report back to you guys all of the Juicy details so I can't wait for that I also want to let you know how my week went before I go in to weigh in and of course I'll be back with not only my weigh-in, but you know a recap of what we discussed at the workshop So let me just tell you guys my week was stellar Stell Er, I am so proud of myself. I had a fantastic Weight Watchers week. I did all of the right things this week I worked out at Jazzercise three days. In fact, I went two days in a row So let me just tell you how sore I am today, but I'm going to Jazzercise again today. So that is going great I am loving it. I don't dread going like I dreaded going to the gym I literally look forward to it. What a huge change of pace for me I have finally found an exercise that I enjoy and it is an intense crazy Workout crazy workout. So I did that and my food was on point this week I used my weeklies between Friday and Saturday I kind of divided them up because I had a couple of events where I needed to have those weeklies available to me But the rest of the week you guys I got blue dots. I Within my eating range. I had a Fantastic fantastic week. I'm so proud of myself for actually sticking with the program the entire week I made that commitment to myself. I honestly tracked all week in my tracker I have blue dots over every single day this week and I'm so proud of myself It's been a while since I've been this diligent and on plan and on point with the plan So I'm super happy for that. So I better see some results I better see some good results when I step on the scale today I am pretty darn sore from Jazzercise and again Like I've mentioned before I don't care if it negates a lot of my success on the scale because I'm feeling so much better I'm so much stronger. My body is so much healthier, but this week Jazzercise. Don't fail me Let me see a good loss on the scale to pick up from that game that I had a couple weeks ago So, huh, let's hope so I'm gonna go ahead and head into my workshop hop on the scale See if Jazzercise fails me and I'll be back to share not only my way in but our topic we discussed in this week's workshop Is I am officially out of my workshop so welcome back what a fabulous fabulous workshop So I'm gonna talk to you guys a little bit about what we discussed in the workshop Then I'm gonna share with you what information I was able to gather About the new programs and then I'll share my way in results with you guys at the end So first let's talk about the workshop. It was a great topic It was something that I think Every single one of us needs to remember and that is what our strengths are We have a really hard time focusing on our strengths and we think more about our weaknesses I know I definitely do that. I might say oh, I'm not skinny enough or oh, I'm not pretty enough or oh I'm not I don't persevere enough or oh, I'm not as committed as I should be We don't think about the things that make us a strong quality individual and so I was really excited that WW took the take on let's focus on your strengths so there are 24 strings that most of us possess so I'm gonna put those strings on the screen here for you and WW asked us to look at that list of 24 and pick our top Five so the five strengths that we find that we embody the most and it was hard because it's really hard to think that Positively about yourself and pick out five good things about yourself I know that it is a proven fact that us as human beings have a hard time Giving our self-compliments or focusing on the things that are positive about ourselves So it was hard you guys it took me a few minutes to really narrow down Five out of those 24 strengths that I thought that I embodied the most So I want to share with you the five strengths that I chose And I want you to take some time and pick five off of this list that you embody five Strings that make you who you are So I think it's important for us to focus on those things and then we're gonna take one of those five strengths And we're gonna focus on it for the upcoming week So here are the five strengths from the list of 24 that I think embody myself and why so the first strength I chose is perseverance and the reason I chose that is because I've had a lot of things thrown at me throughout my life There's things that are thrown at me on the daily and I feel like I am really good at persevering through all of those things I don't let those things negatively affect me. I focus on them. I think about them I come to a decision or a conclusion about them and I move on So I feel like I'm really good at persevering through the challenges that are thrown at me in my life And I don't let those things get me down So I definitely think I embody perseverance the second strength is zest You guys I have a zest for life, you know that if you follow my channel, I am happy I am go lucky life is good for me 99.9 percent of the time or at least I make it good for me 99.9 percent of the time. I just have a zest for life I have a zest for all of the things that I do and if I am passionate about something or there is something in my life That makes me happy or that I commit to such as WW we're going to Jazzercise or my husband or my job I have a zest for those things and I feel like That zest that I have I can translate that into my daily life And I can make other people feel that same zest for the things that I'm excited about So I feel like I definitely embody zest number three is creativity. You know me in my recipes I feel that I am a very creative person at heart I like to take recipes that aren't WW related and make them WWW related I like to put creativity into my videos into my real estate just into my day-to-day life I mean, I'm creating a new office space for myself So everything from my home to my daily life to my career to YouTube I feel that I bring Creativity and I've always had this little spark of creativity my whole life Those of you that may not know I sold a stamping and scrapbooking company for over 10 years I was extremely successful and that is the essence of creativity I created cards and scrapbook pages and projects and I shared that with others And I built a business on that and it was a very thriving successful business for over 10 years I also owned coffee shops I had to be creative and how I marketed those coffee shops and what I did to bring people in and keep people is Part of my business and once again, I'm bringing creativity to YouTube and real estate So I definitely feel that I embody that that strength of creativity my number four strength that I embody is leadership I have always been a leader. I'm not kidding you guys. My mom said since I was a toddler two or three years old I always had that leadership skill. I'm somebody that doesn't follow the crowd I'm somebody that people tend to gravitate towards I find that in my day-to-day life I find that again in YouTube and real estate in every position that I've ever had I've always held some sort of a leadership role and I think it's partly being an only child and Really just having myself to depend on I have to lead myself Because I don't have siblings that can help guide me or a lot of friends that can help guide me So I feel that I do definitely have leadership as a strength and I'm really happy about that I'm proud of that strength. So leadership is number four and number five is Gratitude I am so grateful especially for each and every one of you. I'm grateful for the blessings that I have in my life I'm grateful that I have a roof over my head. I have a loving husband. I have two amazing dogs I have a mom that I love and adore. I have a great job. I have YouTube I have so many things in my life to be grateful for and I really try to focus on those things every day Every morning when I wake up, I give myself something that I'm grateful for I'd rather focus on those things than the negative things plus it gets my day off to just a great start to really think about Gratefulness and gratitude. So I definitely Definitely have the number five strength of gratitude. So those are my five strengths that I chose off of that list of 24 What are your top five? I would love for you to share those with me down in the comments And what we're going to do this week is pick one of the top five strengths that you chose for yourself and focus on that for The upcoming week. So I am going to focus on creativity. I have a collab coming out I have another episode of fall baking. I'm working on putting together a meal plan that I can share with all of you guys So I'm really gonna spend this week focusing on being creative I want to plan out by changes in YouTube coming in 2020 I put a pull out in my Facebook group yesterday and here on the community tab about how often I should be uploading videos Are you guys? What are you guys interested in seeing from me on my YouTube channel in the upcoming year? So this next week I am going to a hundred percent focus on creativity and fostering that strength within myself and Really really thinking about everything that I can do to be a little more creative for the upcoming week So down in the comments again, I want to hear what are your top five strengths? What are you going to focus on for the upcoming week? And also what you would like to see from me in 2020. So please please comment down below with those things Now let's talk a little bit about the changes coming down the pipe for WW and what that looks like So I asked my workshop leader. What are they called now coach? Oh my gosh, I can never remember you guys. I'm gonna go with leader I asked her today about the new plan She said that they will be discussing the new plan at the Sunday workshops But your app will not roll over until Monday So my plan is I'm going to go to the 8 30 a.m. Pacific Standard Time The only Sunday meeting that there is in my area to get all of the juicy details on the new program I'm going to film a video on Sunday and upload that and share that with you guys all of the details and then on Monday when the app rolls over I'm going to film another video where I walk you through the app and What's changed and how to select your program and all of the details on the app and that video will go up on Monday or Tuesday just depending on how soon I can get it filmed edited and Uploaded so my plan is to attend the workshop on Sunday so that I can immediately go home and fill you guys in First hand from WW on all of the changes and then of course We'll do recap videos throughout the next couple of weeks just to make sure that all of your questions are answered I will be sharing with you guys the plan that I'm going to follow and how that's going to affect YouTube and so on and so forth. So that is what I found out today about the upcoming changes and by the way you guys I am so Excited for the changes and now let's move into this week's weigh-in like I said before I went into my workshop You guys I had a fabulous week. It was stellar. I am sore as sore can be from Jazzercise I didn't know if that would play negatively into my way in so it was kind of a little bit of a Crap shoot when I went into weigh-in because I was so proud of myself for what I chose to eat this week and Staying on plan and doing my exercise That I have to say when I stepped on the scale. I was excited yet a little bit disappointed I lost 1.6 this week. I know Jen be happy 1.6 pounds is amazing But I guess in our minds when we feel that we did so good We just want to see a bigger loss on the scale I feel like my effort I put in this week I should have lost five pounds right like I think that that's just something we as human beings do because We feel like we did such a great job that why aren't we seeing more results on the scale? But then I remind myself. It's okay 1.6 pounds is fabulous I will take it and maybe just maybe I'll lose a little bit more this next week as well So 1.6 was my loss. I'm thrilled with that. I'm going to continue doing what I'm doing I'm going to continue staying on plan giving myself a little star sticker in my Aaron Condren planner A lot of you have asked me about my planner It is linked down in the description box if you join their insiders club It is $0 to join you'll get $10 off and you can go pick out a planner I have the Aaron Condren life planner that is fully customizable.
