After Halloween, my Weight-Watchers leader told our meeting group that we needed to set some kind of weight-loss goal for the up-coming holiday trio, Halloween, Thanksgiving, & Christmas, which is a hard time for anyone trying to stay on some sort of "diet" plan. I told myself that I didn't want to gain too much weight. At the time, I wasn't really following Weight-Watchers; I had sort of fallen off the band-wagon after my cousin's wedding. Lesson Learned: I need to stop thinking of it as a "diet" but as a "lifestyle change." I learned the hard way that I need to live the Weight-Watchers plan. However, after Thanksgiving, I decided to change my goal. I wanted to loose as much weight as I could before Chritmas. I knew I was only hurting myself not doing everything in my power to finally lose the weight I want to lose. My biggest downfall in tracking my food. On Black Friday, I started tracking everything I put in my mouth; and the result is that it actually works. If you use the tools that Weight-Watchers gives you, it will work. I could only imagine what what would happen if I added more exercise to my regime other than my once a week dance class.
On a different note, you may have noticed the look of my blog has changed a bit. I was getting tired of the green. I changed to a more vibrant and fun background. I sort of like it.
Over the last few years I have taken some time to better myself. As the weight comes off, the confidence I have in myself has gone up. I am trying to be the best me I can. Now if only I could find a job.
