Just Starting Out

I started Weight Watchers Online a month ago. I have since lost 9 pounds. I would like on this blog to journal my weight loss journey. I will post my daily exercise and meals, and I will post my struggles each day. Hopefully this will encourage anyone else struggleing to lose weight, and will be an encouragement to me as I can see my progress and what worked.

I use an Xbox game/program called Yourself Fitness to workout. I really have been enjoying it and the fact that it grows with me is a wonderful bonus. When I first started I could only barely make it through a 15 minute workout, but now I am at a 30 minute workout! Progress, I love it!

Here is my progress so far:

7/18/05: 189
7/25/05: 184
8/1/05: 182
8/8/05: 181
8/19/05: 180

I have lost 9 pounds so far, but it has been a struggle. I tend to want to eat less than my alloted points which then slows my metablolism and then I gain. Then I get discouraged and eat everthing in sight. I am trying to focus on balance in this. I also despise most veggies and will usually choose fasting above carrots or salad for a snack. I am also working on this, but I believe that it has to be tiny baby step changes that will eventually transform my eating into something healthy. So as you read what I actually ate, and are thinking that I need to totally change my eating, understand that I KNOW that, but I want lifelong changes which means doing it slowly for me.
