Weigh In Wednesday

Wednesday??  It's Thursday!!  Yes, I know - but I'm just now getting a chance to catch up on this week.

So here goes - I'll start with a little background info on Weigh In Wednesday.  I thought I could do this again alone.  The way I used to do it when I was going to the gym 3-5 days a week for hours at a time.  The way I used to do it when I was 20.

That didn't work this time.  Mainly because I haven't found the time or money to dedicate to a gym, and  probably in part because I'm not 20 anymore.  So I made a decision.  I re-joined Weight Watchers.  I feel that at this particular point in my life, it is the best fit for me.  Hence, the creation of Weigh in Wednesday.

I chose Wednesday because that gives me a little wiggle room on Sundays for family dinner with dessert, but will still keep me somewhat reigned in.  I also have a tendency to be stricter on my eating towards the beginning of the week (hopefully resulting in a better weigh in).

So for weigh in number 1 here are the stats:

182.8 for a loss of 2.2 pounds.

Since I joined on Sunday my first "week" was actually only three days, so I'm pretty happy with that.

Now I haven't been on Weight Watchers for several years.  By several I mean at least seven.  I think the plan has changed a good three times since then, which is good.  I need the motivation to "relearn" the plan. The part that I love about their new plan - I can eat all the fruit I want.

So here's to re-learning how to grocery shop, how to cook, and how to eat!
