A Little Bit About Me
I am a well rounded person that loves people, most especially family and friends. I am easy going, fun to be around. I am very sensitive. I have learned to try and put "me" first, that took me a long time to learn as the needs of others often came before my own. This enables me to be a happier person and in turn I am able to take care of my family and friends. I am a wife and a mother of three beautiful children; a boy and two girls.
I have been trying to lose weight since my late twenties, after the birth of my first two kids. I have been yo-yo dieting ever since trying everything under the sun. I had successes, but not too long afterwards the weight would eventually creep back on.
I started my weight loss journey in January of 2006. At that time I had 46 pounds to lose. I lost 29 of those 46. I was so ecstatic as I had not been under 150 pounds in I can't tell you how long, and I actually made it to 140 pounds. Because I was feeling so good, I wasn't as careful or as on plan as I should have been so I put back on 17 of the 29 pounds I lost after a year. So here I am in June of 2009 (that's when I started again) ready to get back to my lifestyle change because Weight Watchers really works as long as you stay on plan. I don't know why I veered off into the wrong direction because I never felt hungry or deprived while following the plan. But I'm back, and it's okay that I fell off the wagon because I'm on it again.
I look forward to getting to know many of you, and as always, thanks for stopping by. :-)

Red Lobster...
I indulged a little, but it's okay. I've been exercising fairly regularly now, and despite the indulgence I also managed some control. Some of the food I ordered came home with me and there was a time where I would have eaten the entire plate, an appetizer, plus 3 or 4 of the cheese biscuits they serve.
I ate the… Continue

NSV
Yesterday at lunch a friend of mine was sitting across from me and she was looking at me intently. I looked up at her because I could "feel" her staring. She says, "How much more weight HAVE you lost?" I say, "Honestly, the scale hasn't really moved in weeks. I've been up and down the same 3 pounds in forever."
She says, "You look like you've lost more weight. You look so thin, your face, your shoulders - I can see your clavicles!"… Continue

I'm down...
I am currently at 145.8. I am SO proud of myself because normally I am a daily weigher. I've been reading some of your blogs and see that several of you are STAYING OFF THE SCALE and so I've joined the band wagon. I stayed off the scale until my official weigh in day yesterday.
The first time I did WW I weighed daily, and it didn't bother me. Mainly because I hardly ever showed a gain. But th… Continue

Renewed
In any event, so frustrated with the whole weight loss journey that I just went off the grid for a little bit. I'm still not at it 100%. Can't find the mojo. Don't have the energy, the strength, the desire or the inclination right now to really do anything about losing weight. I'm trying to get a grip, and I know that I will. I tried to start tracking again this pa… Continue

Amanda said… - Thanks for the comment Jeannie! I think sometimes we just don't like to come to the logical/right decision by ourselves and need to hear it from someone else. :-)

Mrs. Ballou said… - Thank you! It was a great run, I impressed myself! :) I had a Zune but invested in an iPod Nano just so I could get Nike+, it was totally worth it for me. I love it! I found an inexpensive refurbished Nano on amazon.com.
