So...here's the back story on this blog. I've been a fatty pretty much all my life, but I've had periods (however brief) of acceptable weight. I moved to San Francisco 10 months ago from Texas and I guess maybe I've been too busy enjoying my new life that I haven't really be doing so hot at keeping in shape. I got on the scale on Wednesday and made my wtf? face (that's my sister doing the wtf? face with me):
I was quickly approaching the weight I was my Senior year of college (which was almost my heaviest), before I started Weight Watchers.I decided it was high time I do something about this.
Weight Watchers is pretty much the only "diet" (don't tell them I called it that) that has ever worked for me. The points made it super easy to count my calories, and it made it easier to decide what I wanted to splurge on and what I didn't. So, taking all of this into account, I promptly decided to go back on WW. Then I promptly went over my points values the first two days of my new diet. So much for resolve or will power or whatever you want to call it.
So this led me to here. My biggest problem with my MANY plans to lose weight is that I lose my resolve the moment something cheesy or chocolatey walks in front of me. This is my way of holding myself accountable. I figure if the world can see my failure, I'm more likely to step away from said cheesy & chocolatey things. Even if no one ever sees this, it makes me feel better that it's out there.
Points allowed: 24
Points used today: 29 (darn those peanut m&m's calling me from the candy machine!)
So excited for you! I think I should write my workout as a comment every day on here so I am movtivated to do it.
ReplyDeleteI can add you as a poster to this blog - then we can motivate each other! You can motivate me to work out, and I can motivate you to not eat an entire bag of cheetos in one sitting :)
