First Week of Weight Watchers

I have done the Points Plus Program faithfully for the past week. I am very disappointed with the first 6 days results. I have stayed on point and did not lose any weight. I don’t know if this is normal or not. But I am going to stick with the program. I have got to get healthy and get this week off. I know I will have more energy and be happier with myself. So the free week of online tools ends tomorrow. I am going to sign up for the 3 month on line program. I really like being able to track my food and points. A co-worker is going to weigh me each Monday. So I will have the accountability. As soon as I learn how to post pictures and work with Blogger my blog will look a lot better.

I want to add a weight loss tracker. But I am having trouble with that application. No one is reading this anyway. :) Since I haven’t told anyone that I am blogging. I did tell my husband that I am doing the WW and about my frustration with the first week. I need to incorporate exercise into my week. I walked on treadmill for 15 minutes on Friday after work. It was a start.

Goals for the upcoming week

Exercise after work- 3 times a week to walk at least 30 minutes

Continue to track what I eat

Stay positive

Until next time

I Did it !!!

Weight Watchers is having a week of online membership. So I signed up.  I am going to see how I like the new Points Plus System. I am planning on going to a meeting tomorrow night so I can buy the books and PP calculator. When I got to work I weighed on our office scales. My starting weight is 180. I have never weighed this much. I weighed175 when I delivered both of my children. I would like to get down to 130. I wonder how long it will take me to lose pounds? And will I keep it off? Will I stick with the program? I have a wedding to go to July 14, 2012. Surely I can lose the weight by then. So that is my goal. 50 pounds lost by July 2012. Hopefully this blog will be an accountability tool for me. I also need to begin exercising again. I just do not have the energy when I get home. But I am going to start....soon. LOL.
Until next time

My New Beginning

Have you ever gotten to the place in your life where you need a drastic change? Well I have and I need to do something about it. I have been unhappy with my weight for a very long time. I can tell this is affecting my life. So once again I am going to do something about this feeling. I don’t like being unhappy. About anything. There has been several things that has contributed to my weight gain, depression, and unhappiness with myself. If it weren’t for my family I would be worse than I am. But I have a loving, devoted husband and a wonderful family. As I sit here typing this I wonder what I will do to lose the weight. I have no idea, no plan. I am going to take one day at a time. This blog is for my accountability and my thoughts, triumphs and defeats. Hopefully more triumphs than defeats. So I will see what tomorrow brings. In 2008 I joined Weight Watchers and in three months I lost 15 pounds. Then I gained it back and then some in 2009 when my oldest Son was killed in Afghanistan. Since then I have struggled with a lot of things. I have no energy, no desire to do anything. And I know my Son would not be happy with this but at the present I can’t get past it. I want to remain as anonymous as possible for now. I have my lunch packed for work tomorrow. Four oz. of pork and green peas with broccoli salad. There is a WW meeting tomorrow. I haven’t decided if I am going or not. I feel as I need the accountability of the meetings.I have tried the online version one time since 2009 but with no luck. That is why I think I need the meetings. So I will probably make a last minute decision tomorrow. I will blog about it tomorrow.

Goodnight for now,
