But I still plan to start up again and keep myself held accountable for my own life.<\/p>\n<p>I can blame my weight gain on, stress, illness, lack of funds and I could go on. The fact remains, it doesn&#8217;t really matter. Do I want to be healthy? Do I want to have the weight problems my family seems to have? Or do I want to break the cycle and really try to be healthy?<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m choosing to break that cycle. So today I weighed in, and I started counting points. I was not surprised to see that I only have a few points remaining at this time. I still have to make dinner and get through the night. But today was good to see how much I&#8217;m really eating again.<\/p>\n<p>Weight Watchers gives you points. I&#8217;m sure you all have heard that. The goal is to eat within those points anything you might want. Now of course it&#8217;s best to eat healthy, but you don&#8217;t have to deny yourself some treats.<\/p>\n<p>My vice is still the same, its the dreaded pop and how hard it has been to break thaat addiction. I also love me my dill chips and other snack foods. I did weigh out my chip intake, and over extended my pop intake. I now have a glass of water nearby, which is flavorless, but I&#8217;m trying to add fruit to it, as fruit is free within moderation of course. I have also read that water is better at room temprature, to convincing the brain you are full.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m also trying to get back to my green drink, and use any means possible to not feel so down about my past choices. So I&#8217;m also going to go as far as saying&#8230;..I am worth taking care of myself. I am a good person and with strength of the good Lord behind me, I will get healthy. All I ask is that you support me with words of encouragement and hope.<\/p>\n<p>Until I blog again&#8230;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ok so it&#8217;s been awhile.
