Success!!

I was so nervous going into my first weigh in. I am not sure what I was really afraid of though. I guess I was just hoping that all of the dieting I had been doing was working. Changing everything about what you eat isn't an easy thing to do but after I stepped on the scale at the meeting and heard that I was down 7.8 lbs it was so worth it!!

I am really loving this diet. I don't feel deprived because I can still have a treat once in a while and when I am really hungry I can just snack on fruits and veggies since they are 0 points.

Some motivational words that I heard on Extreme Makeover: Weight Loss Edition a couple of weeks ago: Losing the weight makes me feel better than the food ever will.

I love that, it is so true. I have high hopes for next weeks weigh in but they already told me not to expect to lose than much next time since last week it was probably water weight.

Thinking good thoughts for Thursday!!

Weight loss

Two posts in one day?? I'm on a roll.

I thought I would track my weight loss on here to either get inspired from other's comments and support or to inspire someone else to get healthier.

I started Weight Watchers last Thursday, so almost a week strong. I am finally motivated to do something and to feel healthier. I have tried WW online before, but it was just a free trial, it didn't last long. This time we are actually paying for it and my husband is counting points right along with me. I think it is going to work for me this time.

My husband is being a great support system for me. He is serious about losing weight also so it is really helping me.

The weight was just falling off after I had Mason. I was breastfeeding (still am) and was just losing all of the baby weight like crazy. Then it just stopped coming off and starting to come back. I was about 15 lbs under my prepregnancy weight a few weeks after I had Mason and now I am only 5 lbs under my prepregnancy weight. I blame it on eating like crap after I had Mason. I had GD during my pregnancy so I wasn't able to eat a lot of things so I just went crazy when I could eat whatever again.

I will write what I like about WW every week, what is keeping me motivated, what is hard and so on. I will also let you know every week if I have lost any weight.

Only two more days until weigh in. I am so excited, but kind of nervous! I hope I lost weight!!

So far what I like: Feeling good about what I am eating.
Keeping me motivated: The thought of weighing in in front of people in two days.
What is hard: Kicking my boredom eating habit.
