I just finished week 2 of this Weight Watchers thing and I must say, it's not that bad.
Really.
I'm not kidding.
I suppose what makes it easy is that even when I stumble off the path of eating what is good for me and what will lead me to weight loss, it's much easier to get back to it and move on. Count the points, sigh that you let yourself cave in to a bad choice and get over it.
I've become a lot more aware of what I'm eating and it's nutritional value. I'm looking at things the way I suppose a normal person would. A little less the way a starved fat kid would.
I'm also not going to lie and say that it's been smooth sailing. Oh it has NOT. But I think I can do this. I can wrap my head around this one and make the right choices.
So far I've lost 5lbs.
I was a little disappointed because you hear all these stories of people dropping 5 to 10 lbs in the first week they start to "diet". At the same time, I'm happy to see a downward move of any kind, even of the 2 and half pound variety. As long as it's not moving up, we're in business.
I'm off to a good start.
Now I just have to keep my nose down and do this thing.
