So I've been on Weight Watchers for 5 days now. 5 long, long days. I already mentioned that I'm trying to shed my "winter coat" and I decided I needed some help. I went on WW 3 years ago and lost 13 lbs and kept it off for over a year. I remember the first couple of weeks being really rough. I mean I could eat an entire box of Moose Tracks ice cream in one sitting right about now.... I know as Sabrina says, I'm not gonna get my "card" right now, but I weigh more now than I ever have. I am only 8 lbs less than I was when I was 9 months pregnant! So, my goal is to lose 20 pounds and however long it takes me is fine. I am having a tough time right now seeing as I have never struggled with my weight and I have always enjoyed eating whatever whenever. I weigh in on Tuesdays, so we'll see next Tues. - it will either be a happy post or an angry one.....
On a good note- Emmaline and I had a little girl time today. Annelise went to spend the night with a friend after school, and B is at a BMW driving school all day playing in cars we could never purchase, so we had an outing planned for the 2 of us. We went to Ruby Tuesdays for lunch at the Mall and then to Build A Bear. She had never been to BAB and had a hard time falling asleep last night because she was so excited. She made a pink unicorn and named her Sally and bought her a pink sparkly dress. Too cute. Then we went shopping for a little while and she picked out some sundresses for me and some shoes for her. After that we went to Bruster's and had ice cream and then went to the antique stores. (Needless to say after a restaurant lunch and ice cream, I had a very light breakfast and will be having a non-existant dinner. ) B's driving school is all day tomorrow, too, so she has already told me she wants to go to some more antique shops. I can't believe that is what she chose- being just 6 years old. She loves looking at all the old stuff and how decorative stuff was way back when. Tonight it's off to the gym with Sweet Thang. She is my accountability partner in all of this. We've made it to the gym 3 times a week so far and have been working our buns off. (Literally!) Anyway- other than that, nothing new. Still packing, still picking out stuff. Still wanting to go hide in a cave somewhere......

Yep I stand by the fact that you can't have a fat girl card but I understand about not being where you feel comfortable and you want a change.
I am very proud of you for going to WW and sticking to the gym! You go Girl!!!
I got something for you when it gets tough and you wanna scream! I use this often and I love it:
Stick to your task 'til it sticks to you;
Beginners are many, but enders are few.
Honor, power, place and praise
Will come, in time, to the one who stays.
Stick to your task 'til it sticks to you;
Bend with it, sweat with it, smile with it too;
For out of the bend and the sweat and the smile
Will come life's victories, after a while.
Keep us posted and we'll be cheering you on! You can do it!!!
YAY for mommy daughter time!
I went to BAB for the first time on my 29th bday(not that I planned , it just happened), I was with 4 kids but it was awesome! I stuffed a gray cat and named him Huckleberry...yep, don't judge me... I was weak... I was away from Sam (for two weeks) and missing him horribly...so I stuffed a cat! LOL!
Got your comment on my blog, and to answer your question about the games, we are still planning on going! Gotta have some Tigers!
I now have to go for Brandon Maye, he is now my fav all time Tiger. Sam and Alex have been constantly razzing me after I squeezed Brandon and he squeezed me back during the kids day at Clemson, lol!!! Umm, I got the squeezing pic on my blog, heehee!! Oh yes, I will be there!!LOL!
I need to get on a routine too. It is hard with multiple children. I have to convince myself that buying bigger clothes is not the answer! Ha! Good luck
Good for you. I did WW last year and lost 25 pounds..kept it off but never could lose anymore...now I'm trying something new, so I know where you are coming from. Stick to it and goo luck!
