So in the middle of June I decided to start doing Weight Watchers again. It's the second time I've done the program, and the first time it worked really well for me. At the end, I had lost over 100 lbs. But after four years of college crap and lazing around, I've managed to put quite a bit back on (not all of it, mind you, not even close, but more than enough). So this time, my goal is to lose 50 lbs and get back to a smaller, not plus, size.
At first, it was really easy and I dropped 4 lbs almost immediately. Then, there were two rough weeks where I put back on 2 lbs, lost one, put on one, etc... Now I've been doing it for a little over six weeks and, by last Sunday, I had lost 8.6 lbs. Which is excellent, but it's definitely getting harder to keep on the diet. There's just so much GOOD food around that I can't eat, and sometimes, my body just can't take it. Plus, the one thing all my friends are good at is eating. We all enjoy cooking, sitting around with each other, and eating. Any time, any place. Also, not a good thing for my diet.
Luckily, one of my best friends is also doing WW so we try, emphasis TRY, to keep each other in check but sometimes we just help each other feel less guilty about pigging out. Haha. I started a blog on WW.com, but it didn't really workout. I felt silly just journeling about weight less, plus there is a WIDE range of people on there, but it's mostly older women with families and kids trying to lose TONS of weight. I felt, inferior. It's hard to be a girl in your early 20s that isn't thin, but it'll be worth it once I'm a girl in my mid 20s who is.
To work out or not to work out. That is the question. I just got back from work, I'm tired and I'm wondering whether the dancing I'll do tonight is enough of a workout. I'm thinking yes. Haha.
Until next time, Cheers!
