I joined

I finally joined Weight Watchers this week. With resistance, I might add. I kept making excuses for not going.
I'll join on Monday. Don't want to start on a weekend.
(Monday) I don't like the times of these meetings today. It doesn't fit into my schedule.
(Tuesday) Maybe I'll join after work. I'm already out, so I'll just stop by after work. But I'll be hungry at that time.
What if I don't get out of work on time to get to the meeting. This excuse is usually the one that is most true, because every time I plan something for after work, it never fails that we work late.
O.k. I'll do it tomorrow.
I did not let myself off the hook on Wednesday, and went. With skepticism, and probably a bad attitude too.
AND, I am not happy with the "new" 2012 program. Not only do you have to eat fruits and vegetables all the time, but now they are cutting back on carbs too.
Of course you can eat all the fruits and veggies you want, except for 3 which do have points, yeah, the 3 that are my favorites. Go figure.
I already hate chicken breasts.
My new way to cook them is in worcestershire sauce.
So, I'm about to go enjoy my "tasty" dinner now.
I'm a little bit off my usual blogging this week. It's been quite a busy week. And I just made a commitment to help a friend once a week. My life is full.
My stomach, at the moment, is not.

I can identify with the excuses. My temptation is sugar. If I avoid that, the rest isn't too hard.

You are so funny. And this is so true. It is so easy to get caught up in the excuses. I finally said that I had enough.
I tried WW. I couldn't do it. I think I actually gained weight:)

Best of luck with your goal and WW!

I tried some new snacks in this months box, so get ready for some chocolate! ~dutch cocoa sun-crunch These are cocoa flavored sunflower and sesame seed clusters. Medium strength taste wise on the chocolate, but I love the saltiness of the sun-crunch itself. 6 grams of protein per serving; that's pretty good too! ~dark cocoa almonds~ If you like dark chocolate, you'll love these! 4 grams of protein on these per serving. ~dark chocolate berry trail mix Out of the other trail mixes that I've tried from Naturebox , this one is my favorite. It's a good mix of dried fruits and nuts, including cranberries and cherries, cashews and pistachios, plus tiny chips of dark chocolate that gives it that flavor punch. 4 grams of protein ~flax fortune coins~ Taste just like flattened fortune cookies with the added benefit of flax seeds. Flax seeds are full of omega-3's, and are said to be good for helping reduce your risk of heart disease, cancer, stroke, and diabetes...

Post July 4th workout and update

I took off a week from running since my legs were hurting everyday, all day. So it was a bit challenging to start back up this week. I'm so greatful for the cooler mornings that we've been having. Today: 1.77 miles Weight: let's not talk about it; I'm on a see-saw right now. Eating fairly well. Staying away from sweets. Bought a new swimsuit yesterday, so can start swimming when it is too hot to run or walk. Not your traditional swimwear; I wanted something to exercise and do laps in. It's more for cross-training. More to come..... To read my previous post. go here .

Well! I'm feeling a little happy today! I made some earrings for the gallery and took them there. I have to admit; I almost don't feel like my current work is not "good enough" to be in this shop. What beautiful paintings, artisan made pottery, wall hangings, glass! You can find it here: http://www.paintedfishgallery.com Then I went and picked up my check from working last week.
