Since starting back with my WW lifestyle change and the Healthy You Challenge I have really felt good about myself and what I am trying to achieve :) This weekend I kind of messed up but you know what I did differently? Instead of giving up just because I went over in points on a couple of days I said to myself , "No I am NOT going to give up" So I just picked myself back up and went back to counting my points today and have been on track all day :) This is a breakthrough for me because before I would have just said "The hell with it" but this time I TOOK CONTROL and it feels soooo GOOD :)
Well my first week back on WW and back with the Healthy You Challenge I lost 8.8 lbs. I was VERY happy with myself and with those results. Even though I know I won't get those results every week it is good to know that I can lose that much on some weeks. This week I am striving towards at least another 5 lbs. off but if it's only 1 or 2 lbs. off then I will be happy with that too. I am just so happy with all of the breakthroughs I am having. I am a big time emotional eater and that is what usually destroys my weight loss efforts and it is really frustrating to deal with. I have a certain mind set now and so far it's working , not perfect but it's working :)
My goals for this week are to:
* start excercising (this is a hard one for me )
* eat more fruits and veggies ( I find myself not eating as healthy as I should be only because it's easy to just count points on junk food as it is on healthy food but I want to get out of this bad habit)
I hope everyone is having a GREAT WEEK :) Let's make this another LOSER WEEK for us all!! I promise I will get up to date on reading as many blogs as I can and commenting , I am behind on that but I will get caught up :)

wow! 8 lbs! That is super ;) It sounds like you are very committed to do this and that is what you need to keep telling yourself when you feel like slipping ;) You can do it!
That's great that you just started over instead of giving up. Great job on the weight loss. Keep up the good work.
My motto - every loss is a gain in the right direction, no matter how small. Don't overwhelm yourself - you're going great!
