the plan

Hubs and I decided that we are going to do Weight Watchers again.  We've done it before and lost a combined 60 pounds, and almost seven years ago I did it by myself and lost 50 pounds.  It's the easiest and best diet for our lifestyle.  He usually works 1p-9p and I just started at the hospital, working 11p-7a.  It's been very hard adjusting to working third shift, I never have before and it has made eating right hard.  I know that it is just a matter of sliding my eating times around a little bit, but it is really strange to wake up at 8p and eat breakfast when hubs is eating dinner.  I am getting used to it though, it shouldn't be too long and I will be eating ice cream (Skinny Cow of course) at 7a!  

Hubs borrowed the Insanity workout from a friend.  However, we are not starting that right away.  We NEVER exercise, and Insanity is really intense.  I've done the fit test and I thought I was going to die, seriously.  We bought the Wii Fit last year, so we are starting with that and working our way up.

I've been very bad this weekend.  Monday-Friday, I did great.  Saturday, we went to the fair, and Sunday we had company over to watch the game.  So, I didn't lose anything and I am still at 276 pounds.  I'm thankful I did not gain after this weekend of weakness. However, it is a new week and my goal is to lose at least 4 pounds this week. 

I want to lose 40 pounds by the end of the year and 136 pounds total.  I know that I can achieve both of these goals.  I just have to keep moving forward and not let anything set me back.

Until next time...


Also, thank you for all the encouraging words!  It's great to know that I have so much love and support!!  :o)

  2. Ugh, weekends are the worst!! We've gotten really out of the habit of good eating, mainly because it seems like every weekend we're going somewhere or people are coming over, and it always trashed the good work we've done all week. Just remember that Monday is a brand new day to a brand new week and you can take control of it! :) I'm so proud of you for being so proactive about all of this! And good luck with Insanity--I've got a couple friends who do it and love it, but it is very intense. I tried P90x for about 2 weeks and it was just too much for me. Good luck, and keep posting! Love you!
