Putting it out there

I restarted Weight Watchers this week.  I'm looking to lose 20 pounds (to start).  I'm tired of being overweight and hating how I look.  And I want to lose weight and be a better runner (less pain, more energy, etc).

I don't normally tell people when I'm trying to lose weight, but maybe this time the accountability of others knowing will help me.  So far, this week has been alright.  I didn't realize just how much I was eating until I really tracked it.  The first few days were a huge adjustment, but I'm feeling better now. 

So, wish me luck!  I'll still be baking for the blog, but the difference is that I will eat maybe one of whatever I make, and then get the rest of it out of the house.  I think it's a good compromise.

Re: Putting it out there

  • Good luck, M- you can do it. Know how I know? You trained for a half marathon when you were not a runner to start. You did that...you can do this.

  • You can do it!  I'll be honest, when I saw your picture from the marathon on FB - I was kind of happy to see you weren't stick thin because I thought to myself if she can run a half marathon SO CAN I!  With that being said, I totally get ya!

    I'm down 22 pounds and I need to get back to my c25k.  I think it's time to move on to the 10k though.

    YOU CAN DO IT - YOU WILL DO IT!  GOOD LUCK!!!

  • Good for you!  I'm getting serious about it too.  I'm tired of talking about it and being down on myself for not doing anything about it.  You can do it!  Now I just have to convince myself I can too...
  • two friends have started weight watchers just over a year ago

     

    -- Gretchen is down 73 pounds ( she also does yoga 2-3 times a week )

    -- Brandie is down 120 pounds ( she started doing Zumba and is now a certified trainer ! )

     

    I don't know if this is a motivater but Brandie actually posted her weight loss on FB - there was a minimum of 10 " likes " or comments each time, even if it was only 3 pounds.
