Day at a Time December

Happy Birthday Jason and Hampton!

I have decided I am going to take December a day at a time. It might even be necessary to take it a minute or an hour at a time. Weight loss is hard. It is so difficult that many people who try, fail. Then they try again and fail again. And for those people [...]

Bite It Write It – Weekly Weigh In

Weight Watchers Lose for Good Shirt

I am so glad I went to my Weight Watchers meeting tonight.  I wonder if there are ever times when someone leaves a Weight Watchers meeting and wishes they had not gone?  I am sure there are some out there but no one walking out of my leader Jacynta’s meeting ever says that!  She rocks. [...]

Measure It – Weekly Weigh In

Weight Watchers Food Scale

I have been a little lax lately with my weekly weigh ins.  Probably because it has been such a constant up, down, up, down, up, down. Who wants to hear about that?  Well…I realized maybe YOU do.  Maybe you are experiencing the same thing and you need to hear that you are not alone.  Guess [...]

I had a good week last week.  Do you want to know why?!?  It’s a big secret…a big trick.  I don’t know if I should tell you all because it is so profound. I tracked. Yep, that’s it.  I tracked all week long. I tracked, I stayed on plan, and I lost. I didn’t just [...]

This morning, when I stepped on the scale for my Monday morning weigh in, I was mortified.  Not shocked, just mortified.  How can I be on this downward spiral.  I had pretty much already decided last night that I was going to use a No Weigh In pass tonight at Weight Watchers.  Lately there have [...]

Accountability is Key – Weekly Weigh In

Last night was my weekly weigh in at Weight Watchers.  Every Monday night after weighing in, on my way home, I pick up the phone and call my  mom.  Why?  Because I call her to tell her how I did.  Gain or lose, I call her.  If I ever don’t call her, she calls me [...]

Action Plan

Jen with a Plan!

Okay people…the pity party from yesterday is over!  Time to move on.  I appreciate everyone’s comments, love, and support.  I think in any weight loss journey the discouragement is bound to happen.  If not once, multiple times over the journey. A wise woman (Jacynta) once told me, “A failure to plan is planning to fail!” [...]
