Missed My Weigh In

Today was my weigh in at Weight Watchers, but I was so wrapped up in my work that I forgot about it all together.  My work as been one of my problems with this weight thing.  I am getting better though.  I used to be real bad.  I would come down stairs in the morning and go straight to my computer and start working.  Before you know it, it was lunch time and I was starving and now I had to figure out what I was going to eat.  Because I am so bad at planning meals I would grab whatever was quick and near.  What I later found out was that when I didn't eat what I really wanted I would nibble all day long and the calories would probably just add up.

I missed my weigh in, but I am going to try to go to another meeting this week.  This helps me stay on track so I will find another that I can attend.  I am also going to the orthopedic Dr. on Thursday for my knee, hopefully he can give me something for the pain, because I want to join the gym and right now the pain is just too much.

The name of this site is Becoming Me TV.  I have to get back in the mood of video tapping these comments again.  So I am working on that too.  So you see I am just a work in progress.

Until Next Time

My Knee Kicked My Butt

Because I work from home, most mornings I get up and put my sneakers on.  So this morning I had to be out to the house and at the train station by 7am because I was a panelist for The National Publicity Summit in New York City.  So I had to get dressed and not wear sneakers, well let me just tell you that wearing shoes and being out of shape is no joke.  My knees hurt so bad.  I could not wait to get home and get the heels off. 

Now I know that this should not be, that is why I am working on dropping the wait that is causing me all of this knee pain.  I made an appointment to visit the orthopedic Dr. next week, so that I can get some xrays on my knees.  Hopefully this will help me get my knees back in shape.

In the upcoming weeks I will bringing you some reviews from authors who I met today at the summit.  Once of them talks about your brain and belly fat.  No you know this one caught my attention.  So stay tuned.

Until Next Time

3 Pounds And Counting

I've working on being more consistent with my blogging.  It's so easy to get side tracked when it's time for me to blog.  Over the years I've learned that my biggest flaw is consistency.  So I am working on getting better about that.  Enough of that.  I am proud to announce that I weighed in yesterday at Weight Watchers and I dropped 3 pounds.  I believe I could have done more, but the weekend was tough because my husband made all of this great stuff because my niece and nephew came over.  So needless to say I went a little overboard.  But I have to give myself credit for my three pounds. 

Wanna know what's funny?  I thought because I had such a weekend filled with great food, I thought that I had gained a few pounds and I almost did not go to get weighed in, but that was not the case and I am happy that I did weigh in because to see those three pounds was like seeing and angel and I got motivated all over again.

So I am down 3 pounds and counting.  Only 97 more to go.

Until Next Time

The Biggest Loser

Just got finished watching The Biggest Loser.  I love this show and find it very inspirational.  I've been watching it since it first aired.  I think it's amazing at the amount of weight that the contestants loose.  I know they have a huge advantage because they have a team working with them.  So I decided that I need me a team too.  I've joined weight watchers, but now I think I am going to join the gym and get in some exercise.  I hate to exercise and said that I wouldn't waste my money, but I understand if I am going to be successful at this I need to get some movement in my life.  So I will check back later to let you know my out come.

Until Next Time

The Weigh In

So last week I joined Weight Watchers and tomorrow will be my first weigh in.  I am little nervous, because I didn't record my points all of my days, but I don't think I went to over board.  I know in order for me to have success at this I have to stick to a system, but sometimes it's really hard because I am such a work-a-holic and my first thought is my working on my business.  I am going to put forth more effort.  I am still planning on going to Liberia, so it is really important that I am in the best possible health. 

My other short comings is blogging every day here on Becoming Me about what's happening in my life and how I am feeling.  So again I will be putting forth more effort with this.

Until Next Time

I Joined Weight Watchers

So I need an accountability partner and thought I had one with my Mom.  So we went to Weight Watchers yesterday to join.  We both joined, but she was really reluctant.  After we finished up the new member meeting and left the place, my mom decided that she did not want to come back.  She didn't see the importance of the meetings.  She felt like she was just wasting money.  I tried to explain to her that the meeting help to get you in the right mind set.  She said I can do it on my own and I said to her you haven't done it up until this point why not just spend the $13 dollars a week.  Well she refused to go back with me.  I am going to keep going because I need the help and the motivation.  Maybe once she sees that I am doing good she will change her mind again.  For me attending the meetings help me to stay on track, because I want to see the number on the scale go down every week.  The other thing is that my knees hurt so bad that I hate to walk and I know that this is not good.  I have to travel outside of the country and I know will have to walk, so being in the best shape possible is a goal for me.  I am going to continue to try and encourage my mom to go to Weight Watchers with me, because she really need to loose the weight.  she can't walk a 15 feet before she is out of breath and I want better for her.  She is still a young woman.

Until Next Time

Getting Motivated

I have been so off track with all of the stuff that I have going on.  I went to Georgia for the funeral and really ate some real country stuff.  I tried to get into my blog, but the computer was so slow that it just frustrated me.  Once I got back home for some strange reason I haven't been able to become 100% motivated.  Normally I am really motivated, but my motivation level is low.  Maybe after the game tomorrow that will change.  I need my motivation back because I have so much work.  I have to upload my updated books to Create Space and Amazon.  I also have to upload my books so that I will also have them in E-book form.  

I am also working on a new joint venture that is rolling out well, but will need more of my attention in a few weeks.  I am really said about not being able to go to Liberia right now.  I was scheduled to go in November, but because of my moms treatment schedule I wanted to make sure that I was home to help her get through it.  I am now planning to go in January when her treatment is completed. 

I am still excited about my plans, I think that I am just feeling a little overwhelmed right now and have to get back on track.  

The whole time I was in Georgia, my knee gave me great pain.  I believe that this has a lot to do with my weight, so my mom and I have decided to join Weight Watchers and be a team.  She needs to get healthy and so do I.

So right now this is what's happening with me and Becoming Me.

Until Next Time

Make It A Great Day!
