Starting Today...

I am fat

yeah ~ I said it
I put it out there

taken January 12, 2010

I need to lose
a lot
of weight

hitting the scale
was scary
but I knew...

I joined Weight Watchers
in 2006
and stuck with it a year

and lost a total of about
25 pounds
guess I was not trying very hard

but you know what

I went back

on Thursday night

and rejoined.


I also kept my tracker
from the last time I was there
which was January 2007

and I have gained
4 pounds
since I quit

I almost did the happy dance
only 4 pounds
in 3 years

it told me a couple of things
I have changed my eating habits

I have become a label reader

I have a better awareness of what I put in my mouth

so although I am not happy
with the number on the scale
I am happy and feel it will be easier
this time around

I also know that I have to
move...
get my butt off the couch
away from the TV
and the computer

I know it will be hard

but for an hour each day
I will be in a zone
moving
dancing
anything but sitting

I know I can do it...
