We Ate It, We Moved It, and We Lost It

Sometimes I feel as if I am the only one who fails. It is as if I hate to talk about trying another method to lose weight so I can fail at that too. I guess I will put it out here and give it another go.



This past year, I have not lost weight nor have I gained weight. I have learned so much about me and why and how I have gained so much weight. I guess I needed this time to really make some spiritual and emotional changes before I could begin to make eating changes.



I rejoined Weight Watchers four weeks ago and have lost 5 pounds. I have not gotten back to the gym since we are swimming every day. As soon as we can no longer swim, I will get back to working out inside. I will miss the pool but have discovered an indoor pool in our area that we can go to during the fall and winter months. I am using it as a 'carrot' to entice the twins into doing their school work.



Weight watchers has worked for me in the past. I do not do well left to my own devices. I need the accountability of paying that weekly fee. I guess I am driven by money. I like counting what I eat and knowing when to stop and when I can eat something else. I like the meetings and have found a leader who is an encourager and funny to boot. I can go when Honey is home so I don't have to worry about the kiddos.
