WW
I've offically started exercising and doing WW, if you don't know what WW stands for then you have obviously never needed to lost weight ... LUCKY YOU!! I've been on the program since January 2nd .. and have lost 4 pounds .. I need to weigh in today so I will keep you posted .. actually it might just become a weekly post .. kinda like the Queen's music monday .. I might start "get thin" thursdays .. I know that you're all excited about it!! Let's be honest I will blog about this more for my sake then yours but that's okay right?!?
Why did I decide to lose weight .. well my friends ... I've gotten to the point in my life where I can't keep using excuses to why I'm sooo heavy .. my baby is 2 1/2 years old now .. so no longer can I say I just had a baby ... I'm not having any other children so I can't use the "no point in losing weight when I'm going to have another child" .. I can't use the excuse I've been super sick and on lots of meds that caused the weight .. my health is fine .. so NO MORE EXCUSES ... just honesty .. I'm fat cause I'm lazy and didn't try to lose any of my baby weight ..
After Christmas I decided it was time to put the pedal to the medal and start, at least try, to lose some weight .. I don't feel healthy .. I don't like the way my clothes fit .. and HATE HATE what the scale says .... I just can't believe I let myself get like this .. WHY ?!?! Why wouldn't I have caught this gradual weight gain sooner ... it wouldn't have been sooo hard or so much!! WHY OH WHY?!?
I love WW .. specially now that all foods have to have the nutritional value .. really helps calculate the points .. I decided to try WW online .. it's soooo great .. it helps you calculate points .. gives you recipes .. and keeps track of the food you eat .. I've learned WAY more on this site then attending the meetings .. oh did I mention it's only costs roughly $85 for 3 months .. love it! The only down fall is that you have to be honest when you put your starting weight in and then every time you weigh in! Not sure why you'd lie but some of my friends say they could NEVER do it cause they'd just lie about their weights ...????
Anyways ... I'm back on track and if anyone out there would like to join the club .. feel free .. I'd love to have a buddy to lose weight with!
(Note- I do know that this is just my second week so that's why I'm so excited about it .... sooooo I fully expect my attitude to change but that's why I have you fellow bloggers to help me through the rough times ... thanks in advance .. when I get on Oprah with my great weight lose storyI will be sure to invite you all or at least mention your support!)

That is great. I may think about joining you but I have to get myself mentally prepared or else I just give myself permission to cheat. Online? I didn't realize that was an option.
As for the gradual weight gain -I've done that too and my explaination was, "well it's ONLY 5 lbs" but soon it was another 5, then another and soon I hit my all-time hightest weight. Then you lose 6 lbs but then gain 8 lbs and so on and so on. Ya, I guess I'd better join you, please forward the site and info. THanks
I've joined WW in town and have gone to the meetings in the past but didn't sign up this time as right now I just don't have the time, but overall I do think twice about what goes in my mouth now as I think in points.
I've lost between 15-20lbs (depends on the day).
I wish you luck, the Battle of The Bulge is not an easy one.
I've done WW online and I LOVED it. Of course I became super obsessed with it and never wanted to leave my computer - except to go do maniac-ish exercise and then run home and weigh myself and log it all on WW online....
Yeah, but that's just me and my obsessiveness.
Good luck!!!!
YAY! That's awesome that you started WW! I found the biggest thing for Matt & I was to be accountable to somebody, so when we weighed in, we weighed together. So, now you are accountable to us bloggers! Ha! Ha! Good luck, sista! You will succeed because you are that type of person!
