I started losing weight in 2008 and over the next two years lost 106 pounds. In 2010 my life changed when I got diagnosed with Crohn's Disease. Over the next two years I gained back 100 pounds. I'm taking my life back. Today is the first day of the rest of my life. Today is my fresh start and it can be yours too.

Weight Watchers Update and This week's Goals
Weight Watchers was yesterday. I love my leader and my friends. It has been the best thing for me for my Weight Loss.
My goal for this past week was to lose 2 pounds. I was close. I lost 1.4 pounds. I know exactly where I went wrong and plan on correcting that this week. I was short on my fruit and veggie intake, but the good news is I wrote down everything that I ate and I mean everything, the good, the bad, and the ugly. I am excited because that has always been really hard for me, but it really wasn't this week.
Another positive is that yesterday after Weight Watchers I went to the gym and then Costco. I went to Costco the day before the Super Bowl and they pulled out all the stops as far as samples go and I didn't have one. I even grabbed one, looked at it, and threw it away at the next trash can. I was very proud of myself. It's the little decisions like this that add up and help me reach my goals. I plan on doing that today when we watch the super bowl. I didn't buy any desserts, I did get Pizza, but have stuff for a Salad, and have fruit and veggies to put out as well. Just because this is normally a day to overindulge I will not and already have a plan in place. Wahooooo!!
So here are my totals from weight watchers.
Last Week's Weight: 240.6
This Week's Weight: 239.2
Weight Loss for the Week: 1.4 pounds
Weight When I sarted WW: 306.2
Total Weight Lost: 67 Pounds.
I'm excited to get back to where I was before I was sick. I was at 200 pounds and ready to go into Onederland. That means that my weight would finally start with a 1. I have accepted this weight gain for what it is. I was sick and gained weight. Now I'm not sick, or at least not as sick, so I'm back at it and I know how to do this, so I'm doing it. Wahoooo!!
My Goals for this next week:
1. Lose 2 pounds
2. Track what I eat EVERYDAY.
3. Hit all my workouts that my coach has given me I haven't done this in a long time. This week is the week for me to do this and the weeks beyond. I'm serious about hitting my goal of a 1/2 Ironman in August, so this is what I need to do.
4. Work in my room, basement, and dining room to get the house closer to getting on the market.
What I did this week that really made me happy is that I took little steps to reach my bigger goals. When you set a big goal break it into smaller goals and it won't seem so overwhelming. You can do it.
