Update on Weight..

I weighed in on Tuesday at 242, A total weight loss of 10 pounds... Very happy, now to just keep going so I can reach my goal of 40 pounds before Christmas, maybe if I keep up the good work I can lose 50 by then If I was under 200 pounds by January 1st I would be so happy...  I have been eating 29 points a day but decided that maybe I was not eating enough so I went up to 33 and when I get down 10 more I will go to 32 and so on... Well there is my update... Thank you..

New Favorite dessert recipe Weight Watchers approved.

Any flavor cake mix
Any flavor Diet Soda
Mix together do not add anything but the diet soda, put in 13x9 baking dish cook on what cake box says.
If you want to spice up with some icing use different flavors of Sugar free jello, This dessert is 4 pts for a Huge piece.. And who said we couldn't eat our cake too...
So far my favorite has been Devil's Chocolate Cake with Diet Dr. Pepper, and Vanilla SF pudding.
My girls love yellow cake with Diet Rootbeer.

By the way I have eatin this several times over the last 4 weeks and have still lost 10 pounds so kudos, to my friends at Hungrygirl.com

Schedules.. Follow up on Me..

So School has officially started and my schedule went from Not to A lot. So now that I am busy 5 days a week, I don't have a whole lot of time. It is really hard to keep up with every ones everything.  Anyway I am still on my Life style change, I have been on it 3 weeks and lost 8 pounds I feel like I try so hard I stick right to it no cheating, Water only! Weight watchers meals! Chicken and veggies! I walk and exercise. I have a problem with weighing myself everyday, but that is just more incentive to try harder if the numbers don't look good right. I don't know sometimes it feels like a big smack in the face. I do feel better though healthier and more energetic. I just have goals big Goals, and I want to reach this one Bad. I always give up every diet I give up on, I am not giving up on this one. Not even for holidays this year. My Internet research says 40 weeks that's how long it takes to make a baby. So if you can have a baby in 9 months I should be able to reach my goal of dropping 80 pounds. So I keep on truckin on. Some days are better than others, but I know I can do it if I just keep it up find my balance... There is hope. I found that if I schedule everything it is a lot easier to follow so I do, from appointments to eating. 
Weighing in today at 244.

Back To School.... Weight Watchers..

Well School is back in session, Rieli and Autumn have been going everyday since Wednesday, and Makenzie will start Monday for her first day of Kindergarten, then she will go Friday and then full time starting on 23rd. I don't know exactly how I feel about all of them being gone, but its a new chapter I am ready for. I have been at home with one child at least for 10 plus years and am ready to take part in my "New Me" campaign. I have pretty much been fat my whole life, so I am excited to be going on not just a weight loss journey but a Journey to make me feel better. I started on the first of August, I have several goals that I would like to achieve, but I am going at it strategically. I started with doing weight watchers (WW), I meet with a friend of mine who lost 106 pounds on WW, She has inspired me. So she sat down with me and went over a number of things to get me on the right track. She gave me a Weekly chart ,to chart what I eat how many steps I walked and a set date to weigh in. As scary as this is to announce, When I started this I weighed 252 pounds, I am currently weighing in today at 246. It has been 12 days. So hopefully I am on the right track. I purchased a WW points plus calculator. It does the majority of my Grocery shopping. Without it I would be screwed. I actually feel full 90% of the time. I only drink water, thats it. I decided to do 29 points, I feel like on 39 points it was way too much. I am also walking every night and sometimes in the morning if its not to hot, if it is Comcast has a fitness On Demand that I use for excercise, and Just Dance is a Good way to get motivated. I try to get 10,000 steps a day or more. I am trying so hard, but I always let myself down, so I am trying to go by this rationally. My 1st Goal is to lose 40 pounds by Jan,1st. So I need to lose 2 pounds a week for the next 20 weeks, I started with 22 weeks. So My weekly goals are to lose 2 pounds. One of my problems is I weigh myself everyday instead of on Saturdays. Or Sunday Mornings, I can't seem to understand that if I work out on Tuesday it might not show up til Friday. I am an impatient dieter lol.. But I keep telling myself this is a lifestyle change not a Diet. I am treating myself like I am Diabetic. My goal is to lose from 75 to 100 poounds. Every 20 pounds I lose I am going to get a new outfit, and when I reach my overall goal I am taking a huge vacation to Las Vegas or on a Cruise... And I am going on a shopping spree, for the first time in my life that the department doesn't start with PLUS..
