Week 21 Day 1 or New Beginnings

I realized last week I was just playing at this Weight Watchers venture.  I knew I wasn't investing 100% of my efforts.  The past 2 weigh in's I lost weight and I was surprised because I hadn't journaled my food or really seriously done much to deserve the loss.  I knew a gain was coming.  This past week I ate pretty much what I wanted and wrote down nothing.  I had a couple of candy bars, some donuts and big cookies and Thanksgiving was small portions of everything.  So today I had a 1.6 pound gain at the scale.  I wasn't surprised and amazingly enough relieved.

The meeting had a mere handful of people there.  I guess many were not able to face the consequences of their Thanksgiving week for whatever the reason.  I am certainly NOT  judging them, far be it for me to do that. 

It was a good meeting and I think everyone shared at some point.  We wrote down reasons we want to lose weight.  Some of my reasons, of which there are lots more, are written down for the inspiration, the need to kick myself into gear and fully engage in this venture to a new life.

I am going to sit down and plan some meals for this week and write a grocery list.  It is supposed to be warmer today and I intend on taking my Active Link and going for a walk.  Water, drink some water and just revel in the delightful life I have been blessed with.

So until we eat again I will remain Blessed!  Season's Eating's!
