About Me:
I recently turned 25 and prob. like many people my age, my life is not exactly where I thought it would be at 25. One thing that is DEF. not where I expected it to be is my weight. I think when I first started college at 17....the freshman 15 hit me every year for the first couple of years........and then for some reason, my weight just continued to gradually go up and up. Well....that isnt happening anymore. I got tired of not fitting into the clothes that I used to feel pretty in, I got tired of my friends always being so much thinner then me (yes...unfortunately jealousy can be a motivator) and I got tired of the slightly rude yet concerned comments from family friends about what I was eating. My mother said to me one day....if you want to try something like Weight Watchers, I will pay for it. I thought....what the heck....might as well give it a shot. I just finished my second week and my total weight loss is already at 9lbs. Needles to say I'm pretty thrilled.....and that was just the assurance I needed to know that this was going to be a good thing and that it would work....in time.....it will pay off.


Plan of Choice:
Weight Watchers
Workout Philiosophy:
I'm new to exercise

Home Sweet Home

I haven't blogged in FOREVER. I feel so bad. Being on vacation for two weeks made me slack on doing a lot of things....returning missed phone calls, blogging, sticking to my points lol. However, even though I havent been to a weigh in since before I left....my scale shows me being at the same that I was before I left. I consider that good since I was on vacation for two weeks....and had an aunt that was making at least 2 different desserts a day while I was there. I splurged here and there, and… Continue

Vacation

I havent blogged in a few days. I am currently on vacation at the Outer Banks till August 23rd. While I am still following the WW plan, it is my vacation so I haven't been writing down what Ive been eating and I have been splurging a little. But Ive been swimming every day so I'm sure Ive earned enough activity points to make up for it. The scale has not been showing that I have been losing, but it also shows that I haven't been gaining and thats about all that I care about considering I'm on my… Continue

My Scale HAS To Be Broken

So, I know this makes me sound like a complete addict.....but I brought my scale with me on my vacation.

In that short amount of time my damn scale is saying that Ive gained 7ish pounds......that is sooooooooo not possible right? I mean...it had to have gotten bumped or something. Granted on a road tri… Continue

Working Out/Physical Issues

I have been working out quite a bit this week. However ANY working out this week is an improvement cause I hadnt been doing it prior to this week lol. I was really happy with myself with my gym workout today. The elliptical machine usually whoops my but at about 5 minutes but today I made it to 10 minutes and prob. could have gone longer if I really had wanted too. I even got to jogging a bit on the treadmill today instead of just walking. I have to be careful of what sort of exercise I do becau… Continue

That's exactly what I did too. I read your post, read your "story" and thought we sounded quite a bit alike. So I look forward to helping each other through this journey! :)
