I was a cook at a Christian camp my daughter went to this past week, and I had lots of fun. The lady who puts on the camp is a friend, and she has a beautiful house which she opens up for this camp and for Christian retreats and in August she will have an arts camp, and the great part about it, is it is less than 20 miles from my home. I did well in that I did loose .4 oz this week, it could have been worse, and I could have gained. We had typical camp food, hamburgers, hot dogs, steak fingers,… Continue

Out of town

Here I am, it has been a little over a week since I posted last. We went out of town this weekend for our nephews graduation, and stayed with my mother-in-law. She likes to feed us, and she doesn't cook anything healthy. For lunch on Friday when we got there she had sandwiches, I could have eaten one without the mayo and cheese, and without chips, but I have no will power. For dinner she ordered pizza, I did well considering I usually eat 4 peaces, but I only ate two. For breakfast the next morn… Continue

First Day on WW

Today was my first day and I failed miserably. I went to Dallas for the day, it is a little less than a two hours drive from us. We had dentist appointments, and we try to do all our main shopping while we are there. Well I started off good by eating oatmeal, and I drank two glasses of water before I left. I had good plans to eat well for lunch, but when I got to the restaurant I went nuts. Man, what was I thinking? I had 39 points for that one meal, with no fiber, and nothing healthy. I really… Continue

First time to blog.

This is my first blog ever, I have read many and now have decided to do one on my weight loss journey. I will probably make many mistakes but just give me time and I will get the hang of it. Here is a little information about where I am now and what has happened in the past. Well I pray this is the last time the person in the picture is ever seen. I am tired of being fat! I have been fat most of my adult life. I married when I was 19 and was at a normal weight at 128, after I married I gained a… Continue

But normally just dinner, which leaves me scrounging for lunch and not making healthy choices when I have 3 kids screaming they're hungry and having to fix different foods for eveyone. I plan everything but my snacks now, and i try to just keep a bunch of healthy stuff on hand and that way I can kinda go with my cravings. My husband wants to lose weight too, so he's totally supportive about the healthy dinners, but won't think twice about eating chips and hot sauce for a snack, right in front of me I might add. Oh well, if his snack looks better than mine i let myself have one bite and then just let it go. :) One day at a time, one bite at a time, that's all we can do.

Sounds like you do have a very busy schedule, the best advice I can give you, this comes from my experience just tonight, plan ahead. If you don't have the meals and the snacks planned out, you are so much more likely to just grab whatever is fast and easy, which is usually not the healthy choice. :)

I'm new to blogging too. Was thinking about joining WW online, with three kids under 6, just can't find time to go to a meeting, but to be honest - i think eveyone knows what they should or should not be eating if they want to get healthy. What I'm really looking for is friendship and support along the way. Saw your blog and got excited to see another small town TX girl and well, kind of hoped maybe we could support each other.

I've yo yo'd a lot in the past on fad diets. I think that low fat, low calorie is the only way to go. Just keep in mind...One Day at a Time...
