Over a year ago I started Weight Watchers with some friends at work. Although I didn’t get to my goal weight, I did lose 20 pounds. All that and no workouts. Imagine how much I really could have lost if I had only worked out.
Then came some tough news. I lost my motivation, and didn’t care. Now I’m back up there in weight all twenty pounds. Thank goodness, it’s not more. New problem adding to this mix, medication. What do you suppose is a common side effect? You guessed it weight gain.
Ok so now I had an excuse to gain weight and the holidays were here. Who could resist all that food? I’m sure I could name more excuses, but a reality hit when I found my jeans getting to tight and no longer owning my fat pants of the past. I couldn’t even fit in the workout pants I bought to work out in. But wait there’s more! I have a broken toe, so can’t lose weight now right?
WRONG!
I can count points that’s a start! So that’s what I did starting on January 7 th. All I can do is take it one day at a time. So if I go over points, that’s okay we’ll start again. My mind is healing, my body will heal to.
I’m hoping this blog will keep me stay accountable for my food choices. Here’s to a new me in 2013!
