Weight Watchin'....and a new Day One!

Posted Tuesday, April 22, 2008 3:21 PM

Well, I made the humiliating trip back to my local Weight Watchers Monday. After a couple weeks of attempting to weight-watch on my own, I was down a whopping..............wait for it...................0 pounds! Yay, me! But, on the bright side, since really sticking to Weight Watchers for the week, I am down 2 pounds.....yippeeeee! Now for the hard part...the weekend!

I think I really need the humiliation of having someone else weigh me!  Knowing that I have to be accountable to a stranger works for me for some reason. I can't do it on my own!  I also like the praise I receive when I do lose weight.For some reason, that little bookmarker you get at Weight Watchers for losing 5 pounds is a treasured prize.  When I weigh myself at home, there is no one there to say, "Good job!" I guess the FI could, but there is no way in heck I am telling him how much I weigh!

So anyways, today is my new Day One.  I did good today and stayed on track, even through the dreaded lunch time.  I planned ahead, and even set aside points for my coffee in the morning. No Dr. Pepper at lunch- a large, unsweetened iced tea instead. I still got to eat McDonald's, but the fries were nixed in favor of a side salad, which was surprisingly good.

  Mmmmmmmmmmm!
