Weight Watchers

Back in August,  I joined Weight Watchers.  I realized that I was out of reasons for being overweight.  Nora was 8 months old and I was continuing to gain weight.  The lack of sleep and stress of moving were adding more and more weight.  I decided that enough was enough. 

For the first week, I was starving.  I thought about food all the time.  I was use to just going in the kitchen and eating whatever I wanted, anytime day or night.  Now I was keeping track of all that I ate.  I also started walking at the park in the mornings when I would drop Leo off at pre-school.  The first week I lost 7 pounds.  That was the motivation I needed to keep going.

Weight Watchers is super easy to follow.  Now with the new points program, it's even easier.  I love that it is not a diet.  I eat whatever I want to.  All food has a points value and I just keep up the the points I eat each day.  You are also giving extra weekly points to use however you want to.  (Ha ha I could totally be the Weight Watcher's spokesperson huh?) 

So far, I have lost almost 31 pounds and my BMI has dropped 5 points.  I went from being able to walk 1 mile to walking 2.5 miles.  My clothing size has also dropped 2 sizes.  I now am able to wear the same size I wore before I had Leo.  Basically, I'm one hot and healthier mama now!
