Woo Hoo Weekend

Well, I stuck to the weight watchers plan on Thursday. I stayed on points and drank my water. Friday has been difficult. I really want a beer but I am not willing to spend my food points on one. Well, with tomorrow being May 1st, the serious challenge begins. Exercise gets added tomorrow. I'm going to do the 30 day shred. Jillian is evil but she definitely gets results. I'll let you know how it goes.

Oh, I took my measurements yesterday. Let's just say it wasn't pretty!

Welcome to Moe's

I had a moment of weakness. I went to Moe's and I could have made good choices, but I chose the Joey Bag of Donuts and it was so good. I went to moe's website and rebuilt my burrito on their nutritional calculator. My lunch was a big whopping 26 Weight Watchers points. Yes, I put it in my point tracker for the day. At least I had some veggies on it.

At least I am knocking the 64 ounces of water goal out of the park.

The first goal

OK people, I am taking baby-steps. My first goal is to increase water intake to at least 64 ounces per day. Only water counts, my coke zero habit is not part of this. I'll work on that habit another time.

64 ounces of water everyday for a week. Let's see how it goes.

And so it begins

I finally got tired of being fat. It is funny. I don't see how fat my face is when I look in the mirror, but when I see it in a photo, I flip out. I don't feel like I have put on any weight recently, but in the last couple of weeks, I have discovered several pairs of pants that don't seem to fit anymore. I can get them on and fastened, but they are so not comfy. I don't work outside the home, so there isn't a pool of money that allows me to go buy new clothes, so I need to get back into the ones I have. So, this has been coming for a couple of weeks. I found two great friends (hence the title of the blog) who have agreed to hold me accountable for this project. I said we would begin on May 1st. I said that because that gave me more time to indulge my weakness for ice cream. This morning, I decided today is the day. I need to start now. I won't be good everyday, but I give myself permission to be imperfect. When I fall down, I will dust myself off and move on. OK here is the moment of truth.

The stats:
Height 5'3"
Weight 153
BMI 27.1 (Overweight)

Let's kiss that weight and BMI goodbye! Don't go away mad. Just go away!
