On the Road Again


I am super excited! Yesterday my mom calls me and asks if I would want to join weight watchers with her. She said that if I was interested she would pay for it. I signed up on the spot. I desperately want to be healthy. I know where I am and it is not where I should be. In order to get to my healthy weight I get to lose 35 pounds at least. I feel like that is totally attainable. The first goal we set was to lose 5% of my body weight. So here's to the first 10 pounds. I am super pumped. What an opportunity I have been given. I really like this program because it teaches you how to sustain the weight loss. I get to eat anything I want but in moderation. Each food has a point value assigned to it. For example eggs are given 2 points per egg. I get 31 points per day plus an extra 49 points for the week to use whenever. Say I go out to dinner or to a party (hahah) I have a license to splurge a little. I am doing this all online so I don't have to go to meetings. I love that because with all the monkeys I will more than likely be skipping out on quite a few. This gives me no excuse. Also since my mom paid for it I am even more motivated. Usually I get super gassed up and ready to go and within a week my excitement teeters out. With this when my own motivation runs out I have her to fall back on. I am nervous just because it will be challenging for a little bit trying to figure everything out and keep track of all my food. Once I get past that hump it should just get easier and easier which will lead to a new way of eating and living. There will be some bumps along the way but that is a part of life. YEAH!!! Thank you Lord for my beautiful life which you have blessed me with and this body that is capable of many things. So here's to my health quest! Ready...Set...GO!!!
