Working on the Weight Issues

I re-joined Weight Watchers again at the end of 2013.  I'll just get it out there, I weighed in 12/27 at 212.  No it's not a type-o. Your read it right.  And didn't I tell you I've never weighed that much before?  I stood on that scale knowing it was over 200# but 212......I just wanted to cry.  It's tough to take.  I will admit that I am to blame but I do want to put some of the blame somewhere else.  I honestly think life happens in all areas of your life.  But enough of the excuses, now on to how to change it.  I'm going to regular Weight Watcher meetings still on Saturday morning.  Although I did gain this week .2 with the excuse that I celebrated my birthday all week.  And of course it was all about the food and dessert. I was thrilled it was only . 2 cause I deserved it to be more.  I currently weigh 203.4.

I am starting a 5 day Reset program with Meredith, Shoes, and Connie run by Tammy with a company she is working with.  Starting on Monday we will he having 3 shakes a day, two snack bars and then veggies and one piece of fruit. For 5 days!!   With those products we also get a supply of supplements to take in the morning and also at night.  Tammy turned us on to this because it is something she has been doing and we all want to support her.  There are other phases of the program that continue after the five days but my plan is to so the Reset, get my body and sugar levels and all that to come together, and then stay on track with WW.  There is a good possibility that I will be hungry but I said I wanted to to the program and I'm going to do my best for the whole 5 days.

We all decided that we would weigh on our home scales Monday morning and then again Saturday morning after we had done the plan for 5 days.  I'm not going to stick to this type of program to work on losing all my weight. I still think WW is a great program and for me it's something doable, when you work it, it works.

I'm trying to be on top of what I really want.  I can't just say anymore that I want to lose.  I have a lot of weight to lose and I am trying to make it somewhat fun. I made this fun weight loss chart that I hope to use to keep track of my weight loss and continue to move everything over to the other side of the board.  I only have 30 flowers on there and actually need 60.  But they'll be added on when there's more room.

I got motivated to do the board not only because of the Reset but also because I did a 10K this morning.  I didn't run it but did a little jogging here and there.  I wanted to finish within an hour and half and I finished at 1:27!!!! So not too bad.  There was a group of us that did the 10K and then Meredith and Dave did the 1/2 Marathon.

Alicia did it as well and she ran the whole thing.  So proud of her!!

Now with that run in the books I'm actually already signed up for 3 more.  Pretty funny I know but motivating as well to help get some weight off.  But first the Reset!!!
