Weekend Jan 11th-12th - whew!~

I made it over the weekend and staying on program. I restarted my journey in WW last Friday. Its not as hard as my mind makes it. Time to stay on track. I am happy to say I did not gain all the weight back from when I started in June of 2012. So even though I gained - I am still ahead of my weightloss and health journey. What events did I have this weekend: A regional Premier Designs Jewelry Ralley in Philadelphia. Our lunch was a sandwhich -mine was turkey and cheese. I ate only the bottoms of the roll - why? because it was too much bread. I had my apple from the lunchbox. I had a breakfast granola bar, had apples along to munch on. For Dinner, I had manicotti and escarole soup. I didn't meet my water requirement. That is definitely a challenge when you are travelling. I did have coffee, two 8 oz waters, water at dinner, at wakeup and bedtime. Success: water, fruits and veggies. I am looking forward to my weigh in on Friday,

Back in The Saddle

Time goes marching by, the last time I weighed in was Summer 2012. I am continuuing on my journey of weight loss and being a healthier person. Turning 50 in December made me start to think about a new phase in my life. I haven't researched menopause however I know some changes are ahead. I have read that women gain weight around their middle. What made me jump back in the saddle? Seeing a picture of myself on my birthday. I hadn't weighed myself, however my clothing was a bit tighter. I also had other messages being sent to me . .. "do you still belong to WW?" "do you still belong to the gym?" I starting thinking - okay I'm ready to do this!~ I collected my Points Plus materials and re read the materials. I've come to the WW site and read this WW 360 - so I thought - here we go, fresh start. I had my first weigh in yesterday - Yes I gained.. and it is interesting to see it on the weight charts... I am proud to say I didn't gain all the weight I lost and stopped myself before I gained any more weight. I've also read that people who write down their goals are more certain to obtain them. I am ready to be a healthier person.

This is the first day for my new blog. So what's this all about? In the words of an awesome lady, I'll "splain" it to you. I don't want this journey to be a New Year's resolution, this is a journey of being and doing healthy things in my life. I am losing weight, however I am not perfect. I am a positive thinker. So . . . This blog will be about getting healthier physically and mentally. It's the Law of attraction and I attract the positive. So as my description says, if you want to follow me throughout my journey to being a better me, then hopefully you will be able to pick up some tips, relate to the challenges of being healthier. Here's to 2013 !~
