When I Plateaued....

I got a bit discouraged and gave up. That was until recently. Last week I kicked back up into High Gear and by weeks end 6's felt GREAT. Feeling confident I became a "fan" of Weight Watchers, which seemed to bring some hostility about my body image, and then again about how I am raising my children.

Sure, like any mother I am fearful that I am doing it all right, and lets face it...I am not, but my choosing to like Weight Watchers does not create my self as a person, mother, wife or friend. Its simply something I hope to help me on my journey.....

The journey that I thought would be over by now...and so it was, but it must begin. When I began I cut sweets and was craving them on a daily basis. With Summer in high gear...okay, it was for like a week, I was loving living behind Rita's. I also however felt this could come to be detrimental.

So tonight I have decided to set some new goals, guidelines and boundaries. As humans we're continually growing, changing and creating the person we are. Funny...I wonder if we ever actually figure it out of if Heaven is the place you truly become your true self, but anyway, my new changes.

Tomorrow:
Back to NO SWEETS. Yes. Sorry children. Mommy is going to be a crab. To reward myself, I plan to have ONE Ice a Week. For those not familiar with Rita's Italian Ice, I suggest you become familiar...VERY FAMILIAR. These low or no fat ices quench that sweet tooth and inner ice cream drive!

There will be no snacks UNLESS it is Yogurt (GAG), Fruit or Veggies...and that is without dip...even though YES, carrots DO taste better with RANCH OR BLEU CHEESE.

Three, 8 glasses of water a day. NO QUESTIONS.

Four EXERCISE.

These seem like pretty simple changes...however after eating two bowls of cereal tonight, I am pretty sure they need to be written (or typed) out so that I can follow them....keep up on top of me....how have you made changes?
