Weight Watchers

Monday 1/3/2011 I joined Weight Watchers. I think it will be a great decision. I have been wanting to lose weight, and I think this will help me. On 12/31/11 I gave up soda. It's been 5 days, and I haven't had an urge to have any. I have had the cravings for sugar, and massive headaches, but I will grab some water, or a Ocean Spray Cran-Lemonade which is no sugar and 0 points. I am so happy with myself right now.
Another proud moment was afterwork today, I went to the gym and worked out for 1/2 hour. It made me feel good. Tomorrow I plan on going to the gym again for anothe 1/2 hour.

January 3rd 2011, weigh in stats:

Height: 5'2 3/4
Weight: 230.2 lbs
BMI: 42.1
Pant Size 20
Daily Points: 33
How much weight I want to lose: 23

I will be weighing in on Monday nights. My supervisor joined with me, so it will be nice for the added support. Scott has been very supportive of me with this new life change. He tells me how proud he is of me all the time, and tells me I am doing an amazing job. It makes me feel good. Once the weather gets nicer, I am going to try and convience him to go for evening walks with me.

2011 already

Time has flown by, the last three years seem like a blur to me. I was just thinking about my past New Year Eve's and the last one I really remember doing something awesome for was in 2007. Which ended up being a great year. I started a new career, met Scott, and started school again.

This past year went so quickly, with being in school, moving, working, and wedding planning all at the same time.
My New Years Eve 2010, was lame. I watched the ball drop at 9pm EST on Times Square, and then went to bed. My husband woke me up around 1045ish, which only upset me, I wanted to sleep. I hate being woken up before any alarm.

I wonder what 2011 has instore for me. I do know I have some goals, not resolutions.

1. Be a better wife
2. Save money to buy a house
3. Go to Chicago for my nieces birthday
4. Get back into school (taking Winter Qtr off)
5. Get healthier.

I think these 5 goals are good goals to have. I am joining weight watchers on Monday, and I am going to attempt to lose some of the weight I have gained in the last two years. I am cutting out soda, and making sure I eat three times a day. Oatmeal for breakfast, a sandwich for lunch, and something for dinner.

I wish everyone a very Happy New Years!
