Taking the plunge

It's been a while since I've blogged. Facebook seems to be taking over!

But I wanted to blog because I joined Weight Watchers today! Something I should've done a year ago after I lost 20 pounds not after I gained it all back and now have to lose it all over again! Hopefully through the program I will learn some life-long habits to help me keep it off! It's going to be a hard week as I am pretty addicted to sugar at this point and I don't have the extra points I had when I was dieting last year and was nursing. Hopefully the high school reunion I will be going to this June will help with motivation. I officially start counting points tomorrow...

I am also excited because my sister is sending me a dvd by a nutritionist her father-in-law went to last week (to help him fight cancer). I am very interested to hear what she says about how food affects us and some insights about how to eat to feel better & help our bodies work better. Hopefully I can incorporate some of those tips as well - I know eating more beans is on the agenda!
