Wednesday Weigh In ....First WI at Weight Watchers!

Well it was my first weigh in since being back on weight watchers and I am proud to announce that I lost -6 lbs. my first week back! I know WW works for me , it's just I need to get the committment part down! I know I want to be committed but then something happens along the way where my committment level changes for some reason and not sure why because when I lose each week you would think I would want to keep that up. Any ways I am DETERMINED to make this work for me!! I want the weight off soooooo badly!! I want to get healthy again ...I want to look good again....I want it all and by God I am going to HAVE IT!!!!

I have finally kicked the sugar habit I believe because even when I eat something with sugar in it I don't have this overwhelming need to eat more which is a good sign. That was one of my major down falls when I was on the WW plan for five months ....I couldn't fight the sugar urges and I would end up going over points and that would cause me to gain or lose very little and I got frustrated and finally quit but I AM NOT GOING TO QUIT AGAIN!! NO WAY!! I have to do this FOR ME!! I really believe this is the VERY LAST TIME I am going to start over on WW :)

Back In the Game :)

I have been out of the weight loss game for a couple of months now but I am now back in the game. I want to get this right and that is why I have not totally given up on myself. Yeah there are times when I will let months go by before I get back on track again but each time seems to be less so that is a good thing in my mind at least.

I am back in the game and losing again :) I am happy with myself! I really want this ....I want to get the weight off and most importantly I need to get the weight off for my health. I am no longer on WW for a few reasons ....I love WW and I credit WW for allowing me to lose 100 lbs. but I needed a change because the last couple of months my weight has really slowed down and in all honesty I HATE IT :( There were weeks where I was only losing .2 and .3 and for me that is just to slow.

I am on a new plan called The Six Week Body Makeover ...obviously I need to be on this plan alot longer than 6 weeks ....but it's a plan that is doable for me and I love it so far. Today was my first weigh in day after being on the plan for a week and I lost 11.2 lbs.....so I am psyched!! Now I know that is some water weight but I really feel that this plan is going to work for me because I am NEVER hungry and in the week I have been on it I have NO MORE SUGAR CRAVINGS ....which is TOTALLY AWESOME!

I eat six mini meals and the meals consist of foods that work with my body type A ....I get lots of protein, veggies , good carbs and some fruits and I am soooo satisfied with it. There are times when I don't even feel like eating again cause I am so satisfied from the last meal but it takes your body time to get used to all the mini meals. I don't feel deprived of ANYTHING ....and I am not eating sugar (except for the fruits I get) and I can't believe that I don't want sugar ....but in all honesty I have not CHEATED ONCE this week and to me that is a testimony! Before I would sabatoge myself by eating sugar and it's not that I wanted to but my body was craving it so badly that I couldn't help myself.

I feel I have truly found the plan for ME ...something that totally works and that I can stay on without feeling deprived. I am sooo excited to be back in the game and back here ...I have missed everyone! I hope everyone is having a great weekend!!

WI day ..week # 19 completed

I have been absent the past few weeks due to alot of different reasons. Family, the holidays , and the flu :(

It's been a VERY difficult month for me emotionally therefore my weight loss wasn't great in the month of December.

The flu hit me on New Year's Day and I am still down with it therefore I am not really sure how accurate this WI was today but I will take it :) According to the scale I lost 1.4 lbs. and I am down 26.0 lbs. since starting this journey. Slow but steady and that is what I have been reminding myself daily! When I read others weight loss blogs and see that they are losing faster than me and have not been OP for as long it's kind of discouraging but I know that everyone is different and we all lose differently and it's not a race and that always makes me feel better.

Any ways I am happy that I pretty much maintained throughout the holiday season and then had a loss this week although I am pretty sure that is due to being ill with this nasty flu. I pretty much have had no appetite and I have been living off of chicken noodle soup, tea, gaterade, and ginger ale. So once I have my health back then it's back OP and a GREAT start to this NEW YEAR :) 2009 IS MY YEAR!! Hope everyone is doing well!! Have a great weekend!
