Wednesday Weigh In (a day early)
Went to my WW meeting this morning. I don't know about other WW people out there, but I feel weird at the meetings. I know that it is a lifestyle change and the only way to be successful is to totally embrace it as a way of life, but some people are just freaks about it. The leader was talking about visualizing scenerios ahead of time so that you don't eat things you shouldn't eat. She was going on and on about going to a confirmation where she knew there would be brownies and strawberries and that she actually imagined while at home eating the strawberries. Is it just me or is this bizarre? Freaked me out a little.
But anyway...as of today I am down
13 pounds!
I still have a long way to go and I HAVE to add exercise to my plan if I am going to be successful. I just have to find the time. But I know that not having time is an excuse. I was talking to a co-worker and he suggested that I start walking and aim for a 5 K. There are a bunch of them around here and plenty of places to walk if I make the time to do it. So, maybe that will be something that I look into doing. I am planning on doing my Walk Away The Pounds DVD tongiht unless something comes up.

DUDE!! That is freaking awesome! I'm so happy for you :) You only started 13 weeks ago right? See, that is why I haven't yet got my ass to a meeting, because I'm too freaked out by it. I might just do it online. How many points am I supposed to be eating anyhow - how do you find this stuff out? I think I'm going to get the calculator so that when I'm out to eat I have a better chance of staying within my point range. Ugh - I hope I can do as good as you!
I meant to say 3 weeks ago :)
Good for you!!
Yeah, 13 lbs!! I'm so proud of you. I hated the meetings myself. I hated paying $12/week to weigh in when I can do it at home for free!
A Walk DVD? How does that work? Watch it while on the treadmill?
a 5K is my ultimate, secret goal. Shush! DOn't tell.
13 lbs is awesome! COngrats and keep up the good work!
This is awesome! I just started last week on WW, and I'm a little nervous about it... but so far, so good.
I tagged you, btw... yet another meme!
Hi! I happened to somehow run across your blog (not actually sure how I got here) LOL, I totally agree with you on the WW group. While I need the accountability of someone else seeing the scale, I sometimes feel totally out of place with the 'hard core' WW members. My sister and I joke about 'visualizing' ourselves eating. Keep up the great work!
