So I did it. I went back to Weight Watchers and stepped back on the dreaded scale. Truthfully, the number wasn't as bad as I thought, but it certainly was not where I wanted it to be.
So far this week it's been pretty easy. Made lots of good stuff to have my fridge stocked, and even managed to turn away from dessert at my in-laws today. I am impressed with my resolve (especially since the dessert was cheesecake...talk about a test!!).
I have a friend doing it with me this time, so hopefully we can keep each other on track. Can't wait to post my weight loss for the week!

Day One
So here is the first post. A little background maybe? I've created this blog more as a way to document my lifelong journey with my weight. I do have another blog, but didn't want that one to focus on my weight struggles...it is centered more around me being able to find balance in my life. This one will strictly be as a way to keep me sane as I embark, once again, on this journey to lose weight.
I have always struggled with my weight. Even as a child I remember not being able to buy the cute clothes, but rather had to look for what they had in my size. It sucked!
I have had some success in the past. Then I got married, had 2 beautiful children and it all seemed to spiral out of control. The worst part is I know all the steps. Burn more than you eat, everything in moderation, make sure to exercise. It's not rocket science - and whether I like it or not there is no magic pill or solution. And I'm one of those weird people who actually likes going to the gym! It's all just a head game.
I've decided this year would be the year I do a mind set switch. I'm going to change my lifestyle to incorporate it all rather than making it try to fit my existing lifestyle. I'm going to go back to Weight Watchers cause I know it works for me, and I will carve out gym time. My family is supportive (which helps) so here we go...let's get this year started!!
