Weight Watchers

So I am changing my blog from a wedding blog to a Weight Watchers weekly blog/anything else going on in my life at the time blog!

I started Weight Watchers. I have been doing the online for one week longer than I have been going to meetings. Sunday, Jan. 9th was my first weigh in and yesterday was my second. I lost 2.4! I had to get over the disappointment of just two pounds. I know that is about average and I know that the idea of WW is to lose weight in a healthy manner and change your lifestyle. I just wanted to drop 5 or something! I got over it and I am proud of my 2.4 lbs its 2.4 closer to my goal! I am cautiously optimistic that I may follow through with this. I have started diets and exercise before only to fall short and burn out rather quickly. This will be my 3rd week of tracking and I must say I have documented everything. It helps that my friend Cheryl is going to the meetings and tracking as well.

My focus and mind set have changed. I am not looking at this as a diet, but rather a lifestyle change. I am making smarter choices and hopefully developing new habits. I am becoming more aware of the things eat and drink. I am not comfortable yet to post my starting weight. I will  though in time. For right now I am just using this blog to track my experiences as I work on a better me!

On a side note, TJ and I are settling in to married life! We are having fun annoying each other in so many ways you never think are possible until you live with someone! I must say though it is nice to come home to him in the evening. We have started cooking at home more. We used some of our wedding money to buy some really nice Emeril cookware and I must say, I really like cooking with nice pots and pans! I am still working making our house ours and not mine. It will just take time!

I bought tickets to Backstreet Boys this week! I must say I am so so so excited about it! Kaytie, Kim, and I will be venturing to Tulsa in July to see the best concert of all time! I found it interesting when I realized that it was over 13 years ago that Kaytie and I had the Boys plastered all over our room and I was madly in love with AJ! Then I felt OLD! 13 years!!! It feels like it was just yesterday! In honor of BSB I post this awesome video... You can bet I will be one of thousands of screaming women when they come out on stage! I may even faint! LOL!

Thats all for now!
