Weight Watching

So I joined Weight Watchers(on the free trial of course) and I have been living by their flex point system for about three weeks now. I bought the scale, I read the materials, and count the points of everything I eat. I must admit I am totally impressed. It's not a diet it just a way keeping track of what you eat and not over eating. When I went to the doctors on 3/26 I was 151 lbs. today I weighed in at 142 lbs. Now that might not seem like big deal, but I have been trying to get just under 150 for a long time now and wasn't until WW that I was able to do it. Let me also mention that I work out 0%. So with almost ten pound lost and no sweating I think it is great! I honestly can see myself following this type of eating for a very long time. You have to be honest with yourself if you really want to do it. I don't go to meetings or anything I track everything online(what I eat, what I weigh, how many points I per day, etc). So I have no one to answer to but myself and I'm my worst critic.

Weight Watchers has become such an epidemic that you can find the point value of almost every food you eat on it's package or online even though it's not a weight watchers products. So it's really easy if you are serious about quick and easy weight loss. And I can say that after doing it for about a month that it becomes such a routine, that you just do it out of habit and then it just becomes your lifestyle. So I would suggest WW to anyone who is serious about changing their eating habit and shedding a few pounds painlessly.

note: if all of this is foreign to you, I would suggest attending at least one meeting for free and then signing up for the one week free trial online.


Summer is knocking at our doors!

Wow - that is so exciting to see results (and I'm jealous that you did not even work out). Keep up the good work!
