The results are in.....

Tonight was my first weigh in since joining Weight Watchers. I had no idea how it was going to go. I thought I'd done a decent job at staying within my daily points, but I was still worried. I was pleasantly surprised......I was down 9.2!!!!!! I know that I can't expect this much every week, but it was nice to see this time, plus a great motivator to continue on. On the way home I stopped at Target. They already had their Valentine's Day stuff on display. Just what I needed....a reminder that I am still single. Anyone know any nice guys that are single? Until next time....good night!

Choices...

Our days are filled with them, from the moment we get up until we close out eyes at night. Like today for example.... I chose to not hate my coworker as she sat and ate a plate of fettuccine alfredo and garlic bread dripping with butter in front of me as I ate my lean cuisine, green beans, and fruit cup. Ok...I lie....I did hate her. I did , however, chose to not hit her. I also chose to not eat a single cream cheese filled and iced red velvet cupcake while I was making them a for a friend tonight. I had an orange instead. It wasn't the same. More tomorrow....

Baby it's cold outside....

23 degrees to be exact. After freezing all day in my office at work (people refuse to keep the back door closed...damn smokers), all I wanted to do was go home and get in my jammies and under a warm blanket. But, instead I headed to my weight watcher meeting. Since tonight was the first night, there isn't really much to tell. Nothing has really changed since I last attended a meeting a little over a year ago. Tonight we talked about the challenges of tracking what we eat each day. This actually isn't a problem for me, but it was good to get tips from others about how they mangage. I was glad to see that I had not gained back all the weight I had loss on WW before. I did very well keeping within my points today. It can be a challenge for me sometimes because i'm such a picky eater. Well i'm off to pack my breakfast and lunch for tomorrow. Goodnight!

Today is the first day.....

And well you know the rest....and actually it starts for me tomorrow. To prepare I had cake for dinner. A sort of farewll before weighing in tomorrow. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Bella, a thiry something southern girl trying to lose weight and looking for love. 2010 is a new year and it's time for a new me. Since I am a blog stalker to many, I decided to start my own. A place to share both my successes and failures, the good and the bad. Everything from first dates to product reviews and recipes. Feel free to comment or offer suggestions along the way. See you tomorrow after my WW meeting!
