One small step

Another half pound of fat has vanished, brining my total to just over 21 pounds lost so far. A wee, tiny step in the right direction. Yeah, I am pretty happy about that. Considering I was on vacation last week and I’ve been bat-shit-crazy stressed this week, I think a modest loss rocks. Hard core. [...]

Vacation eats

I did weigh in on Friday, and I lost 2.5 pounds. Now I am on vacation and I am trying not to put that back on and, so far, that’s been a challenge. We are in Los Angeles, and California is known for its healthy food options, right? Sure. It also has every other not-so-healthy [...]

Does rage burn calories? Asking for a friend.

Weigh-in day at Weight Watchers didn’t go so well. I gained a pound. After a waging a week-long battle to NOT to dive face first into gourmet cupcakes. Up a pound. And the Weight Watchers counselor asked me what I could have done better. How about nothing, bitch. NOTHING! I didn’t do anything wrong. You [...]

Pulled out a win, or in this case a loss

Despite the amount of delicious food and beverage we enjoyed on our weekend trip to the Circle City, somehow my husband and I both managed to lose weight this week. I know, right? I attribute this win to a good defense. In the face of overwhelming yummy food, we made the best choices we could [...]

No movement on the scale at yesterday’s weigh in, which is frustrating but I know it’s part of the process. When I entered my digits into the Weight Watchers online program, however, I had to have burned off a few calories while cursing at my computer screen, and I was tempted to earn some activity [...]

I have dropped and added hundreds pounds for more than 30 years, so my failure rate at healthy weight maintenance is [...]

Dead even

Originally published on tumblr Nothing lost this week, but nothing gained. If this were my first time at the weight-loss rodeo, I might be discouraged. But it’s not so I am not. This week was a market correction of sorts because I dropped too much last week, really. I am, however, going to have to [...]

Starving my emotions

Originally published on tumblr I lost five pounds this week. While I am happy about that, I am also a wee bit worried this is too much too fast. This was a rough week. My emotions were all over the board, from depressed to anxious to irritable. I got a cortisone shot in my knee on [...]

Down another 2.5 pounds

So now, based on my nearly 8 pound loss, I have a lower daily point allotment. Weight Watchers is the only place that rewards your success by taking something away from you.

A little bit crazy

Originally posted on tumblr This morning was our first week weigh-in at Weight Watchers. These are the thoughts that actually ran through my head while getting ready to leave for our journey to the scale: Brush your teeth throughly because that plaque might add up to a couple of ounces Make sure every ounce of [...]
