Weight Watchers Meeting Today

Well I had a great Thanksgiving, but I gained 2 pounds over a two week period.  I missed my Weight Watchers meeting last Monday, because I was in Atlantic City at a conference.  So although I gained a few pounds, I am committed to moving forward.  Check out my video.

Until Next Time

Enjoying Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving!

I've been really watching what I am eating.  I love pecan pie, and every Thanksgiving my husband make two of them, but this year I decided that I would not have him make the pecan pie, because I know me and I will eat off of that pie for days until it's all gone.  I am still going to enjoy because my aunt always make carrot cakes and red velvet cakes and I love both of them.  So although I've decide to give up the pecan pie I know that it's apart of the lifestyle change that I am making, which is going to be good for me in the long run.

Enjoy your Thanksgiving.

Sometimes You Have To Sweat The Small Stuff

Man I am so excited because I have about 5 new pair jeans that I could not fit into and I am happy to say that as of yesterday I was able to zip up and sit comfortably in one of them.  This may seem small to some, but sometimes you have to sweat the small stuff.  You have to give yourself credit for each little accomplishment, because they count too.  Check out the video to  see what else I had to say about my daily journey.

Still Moving Forward

For me losing weight is about changing my lifestyle and creating one that I love.  Because of my weight I've developed knee problems.  However, I've noticed that some of the pain is slowing going away because of the weight that I've lost so far.  I am expecting the pain to continue to fade.  I went Weight Watchers and I am happy to report that I had a rough week and despite that I still managed to drop .4 pounds.  So small, but still an accomplishment all the same.  I am still moving forward.

Until Next Time

What's Gonna Happen Next?

Man this breast cancer thing is really challenging.  My mom cancer was caught in time and all of her margins are clean, but the chemo that she had to take made her so sick.  I just started asking myself what's gonna happen next.  I've been worried about about my mom trying to make sure that she is OK.  I've been doing OK I guess with my lifestyle change.  Notice I didn't say diet, because for the first time in my life I realize that this is a lifestyle change and not a diet.  My challenge right now is just remembering to eat breakfast.  This has been one of my major problems in the past.  I thought I had a handle on it, but here lately I've kinda slipped back.  When I wake up in the morning I talk to my mom and then once I spend about an hour doing that I am ready to go straight to work, often neglecting breakfast.  

I realize that in order to make this new lifestyle work I have to stay focused and mindful about what I am doing and why I am doing it.  I know that something will always happen next I just need to remember that What's Gonna Happen Next doesn't always have to be bad or stressful

Almost 8 and counting

I am really excited because I went to Weight Watchers yesterday and I've lost 7.8 pounds.  I am proud of that because I did not follow the plan 100%.  So now I am going to try my best to follow the plan more closely to make sure that I reach my goal of loosing 100 pounds.  Now I have 92.2 to go.  Check out my video.  This blog is called Becoming Me TV and I haven't posted a video in a while.  So I posted one today an promise to post more.

Until Next Time
Make It A Great Day!
