Rejoined Weight Watchers Meetings for the Third and Last Time

Hi Everyone,

Sorry I haven’t written in my blog in awhile I’ve been busy.  Anyways I rejoined Weight Watchers meetings this morning at 7:00am.  This will definately be the last time I do this because I want to be at a healthy weight so I don’t develop any serious health problems.  I’m going to stick with Weight Watchers for the long haul.  My starting weight for the third time joining was 209.8 pounds which is what I guessed it would be.  I’m starting from scratch this time around because of the new program Weight Watchers just launched last week called Momentum which is the reason I rejoined in the first place.  I was originally following the new plan online but didn’t like it.  I realized I needed interaction with other people and that’s what the meetings provide and also accoutability too.  Well that’s all for now.  Have a great day everyone.

Bought the 30 Day Shred and More…

Hi Everyone,

I know it’s been awhile since I blogged here but I’ve been busy and absent minded lately.  I just bought the 30 Day Shred DVD by Jillian Michaels and so far it’s really good.  Of course I’m at Level 1 right now but as I progress I’ll be at Level 2 in no time.

I weighed myself this afternoon and I’m 205 pounds the highest weight I was ever at.  I’m really ashamed of myself for letting my weight get out of control.  I’m thinking of rejoining Weight Watchers again but not until they offer free registration again.  I heard that Weight Watchers is making changes to their program so that’s why I want to rejoin.

That’s all I have for now.  I hope everyone has a wonderful night.

Was at my highest weight a couple of days ago:(

Hi Everyone,

As the title says a couple of days ago I weighed myself and I was at 201 pounds my highest weight in years.  I wasn’t suprised though because I haven’t watched what I ate or exercised.  I’m going to try walking to Leslie Sansone’s 1 mile or 3 mile walk this morning and then watch what I eat the rest of the day.  I need suggestions though on how to fit exercise in and how to get excited about exercising.  Thanks in advance.

Sorry

To everyone who read my last post,

I’m so sorry if I offended anyone by what I wrote in my last post.  I just needed to vent but everything in that post is true.  I do get discouraged when I see and hear that somebody else has lost weight and not me.  I know I should be happy for that person but I just get upset and beat myself up over it.

On a happier note I did manage to lose 3 pounds.  I just weighed myself so yay me.

Well I just wanted to say I’m sorry and hope that nobody is mad at me.  Have a great day everyone.

Had a Minor Setback Again:(

Hi Everyone,

There are a few things I have to say in this blog post.  One is I stopped going to Weight Watchers meetings again because I looked at my financial picture and realistically I can’t afford it right now and frankly I didn’t like the meetings much nobody acknowledged I was there none of the other members did so I felt alone and plus I had like four gains in a row and I didn’t like hearing about all the other members getting 5 pound stars and 10% keychains when I gained and seeing all the lifetime members and their skinny bodies just made me feel discouraged.  So I’ve decided to follow the plan at home and see how it goes.

Second, I just weighed myself and the scale said 198.5 pounds.  So I’m still stuck at 199 pounds.  Hopefully that will change with walking, exercising and watching my portion sizes.

And finally I had a minor setback again but I’m doing better now.

That’s all for now.  Until next time have a great day!

As Expected I Gained:(

Hi Everyone,

Well, as I expected I gained 2.2 pounds.  I’m a little bummed but I knew that was coming because I didn’t follow the WW program at all last week so it’s my fault for not doing that.  So today I’m turning over a new leaf and journaling everything I eat and get some exercise in.  Hopefully I’ll have at least a little loss next week if I follow everything right.

Have a Confession to Make

Hi Everyone,

I have a confession to make.  I haven’t been following the WW points system for a week now.  Ever since I got out of the hospital I haven’t had any motivation or energy to count points or journal.  Laziness has been a problem for me and I guess I’m too lazy to stay on program but I know that has to change if I want to lose weight so any advice anyone can give me to help me stop being lazy or help me stay on program better would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

Was In the Hospital

Hi Everyone,

I went into the hospital Friday night because I wasn’t doing good mentally and emotionally.  I was released yesterday and now I’m doing better.  I couldn’t follow the WW flex plan while in the hospital because it was a locked unit and they are very picky on letting you have certain stuff.  I couldn’t bring my WW materials with me because I didn’t have a chance to pack.   I was put on a new medication and they increased the dose of one of my medications and decreased the dose of another of my medications.  I know this is a weight loss blog but I wanted to let you all know where I was in case you were wondering where I was.

I hope everyone has a good day.

I had a Couple of On Program Days:)

Hi Everyone,

I stayed on program and within my points range on Monday and Tuesday.  I journaled my food and watched what I ate so I did pretty good.  Today I went over my daily points by 5 points.  At least it’s not 15 or 20 points I went over like the last couple of weeks.  I feel very proud of myself right now.  Thanks to everyone for leaving comments on my blog.  They’re very helpful.

I Gained:(

Hi Everyone,

I went to my Weight Watchers meeting tonight and I gained again.  That’s two weeks in a row of gains.  I know why I gained…it’s because I binged and went over my points that’s why.  Today I did okay though I stayed within my points range which is good.  Hopefully I’ll have a loss next week if I keep on track.

Hope everyone is having a good night.

Maggie
