Staying OP so far this week. I’m a bit upset that WI on Wednesday didn’t go very well. What I’m really hoping to see is loss of inches at the end of the January Exercise Challenge. I’ve been working out diligently and consistently for the past 2-3 weeks. It has been [...]

Self seeing

It’s getting easier to look in the mirror without pointing out every flaw and part that needs improvement. That’s not saying that I believe any particular area is getting smaller or anything, I am just re-coaching my thought processes. Instead of saying, “Oh my hips look humongous,” I’ll immediately focus my attention to [...]
He isn’t out to sabotage me

So my bf likes to bring me beer, bourbon, cookies, ice cream and potato chips as a sign of affection. Add to that the chicken, shrimp and po’boy restaurant that he frequents and the McD’s he buys for his kids every Friday. I often can’t help but think that all he wants to [...]
Gearing up for the weekend

I am trying to psych myself up for this weekend. They are typically the days where most of my weekly points are used up without mercy. This has got to change and I’m the only person who can change it, right? I need to reread previous tips on how to handle the “off-days”. [...]

Things went great for my first week back on program. I made a promise to myself to take baby steps because that’s what worked for me before and has kept me from gaining back the full 15 lbs. So far so good. Even with TOM’s visit and scary during-the-week WI’s I [...]

Finally I had a day of peace. The kids are back in school and I have this week off before the new semester. It was so quiet I didn’t know what to do with myself. Most of the day, I confess, was spent on my butt watching daytime TV and playing video games. [...]

I can’t wait until the kids start school next week. They are driving me nutso! They are loud, obnoxious, messy and … well … kids. I love them and all but am dying for the break. They are finally enrolled in pre-school and after-school care starting Monday. That gives [...]

One of my Christmas presents to myself was a renewed subscription to Weight Watchers Online. It was more time-consuming than I thought to do the point calculations on my own, I just couldn’t keep it up. I honestly want to attend meetings because they serve as additional motivation and help me focus on [...]
