Off the starting blocks!
I feel so motivated by this forum! Yesterday I shopped for food, made sure I had everything I need to stay on my plan. I’m going to use Southbeach. I need to be low carb and I did southbeach once before and got a really good result. As soon as I added non-vegie carbs I just stacked the weight on.
So my plan for this week is:
- drink only water or herbal tea
- 3 meals & 2 snacks each day
- 20 minutes on treadmill daily
- NO eating in the car!
- keep a food diary
- work on my emotional eating diary
When I reach my mini goal of 190 lbs I am going to get my hair streaked. I have become such a frump! How did it happen? I used to take a lot of care with my appearance, but gradually I have fallen into the habit of doing the minimum, looking OK but not really making a huge effort.
I am tired of my wardrobe of shirts that I can wear as jackets over t shirts, to try and hide my fat arms and my chubby belly! And I won’t even mention the structurally engineered style bras that I wear!
so I need a whole makeover really.
It’s time to put myself, and my health first for a change.
Have a great day everyone!

I think working on appearance makes a person feel better and gives motivation..
It is time for you to take care of yourself… We should not put ourselves on the backburner.. We are important, YOU are important…
Good Luck and have a great day!

There you go!! I get up every morning and go through the routine of hair, make up and pretty clothes even though I may see no one or go anywhere. THIS IS FOR ME!! When I glance in the mirror I have something to remind me to keep on track. I’ll swear it works! GO FOR IT! You can do it. Marge
You know the food journel really works for me.You have to journal all you eat in Weight Watchers.The first few weeks half way threw the day I would quit writting cuz it looked so bad on paper.but it got easier.This is a great place to be.It sure has helped me.Good luck.You can do it!!!
I understand you on the emotional eating part as i am an emotional eater; Happy,Mad,Glad,Sad,take care and good luck i’m sure you can do it.
Great job Jayne - You can do this — Great goals for a new start and great reward for the mini goals —
