Tomorrow is my First Weigh In

Okay, the first week wasn't so bad....it was actually very good.  I've been keeping track of all my foods and staying within my points and I actually have about 20 extra points left over for the week.  
I rode my bike five days this week (30 minutes each day), with the help of my daughter, Kate, who also rides her bike at the same time in NJ, and that alone has made me feel so much better.  
I will be back tomorrow to let you know if I lost and how much I lost this first week.  Thanks for listening.:)

Happy Fat Tuesday

Okay.....it's official.....I am as of today "The Fat Lady".  And since it is Fat Tuesday, the Fat Lady has eaten everything she could get her hands on. 

I weigh more today than I have ever weighed in my life.....I'm almost two of me in weight....oh my!

So, I thought it was time I finally got serious about my health and weight, so I re-joined Weight Watchers (probably my 15th time) today with the strong hope and faith that this would be my last time.  I am not quitting this time until I get to my goal. 

Being overweight has caused much damage to my physical self, one being that I have sleep apnia and now I will be sleeping with a mask and machine every night....real cute!  It has also put much stress on my knees, which has caused much pain and has hindered me in what I would like to do physically.

My head doesn't think I'm The Fat Lady.....but the body says otherwise.  So, as of tomorrow, I will be eating heatlthy and exercising on my bicycle to try to get rid of half of this lady that's hanging on me.  She's really getting to be a burden and I think I need to give her back.

I will keep you posted on my progress and if we happen to cross paths during this year of slicing myself in half, offer me some fruit, some lettuce, some water......but please not sweets, no fries.....

Please leave me some words of encouragement each week.  Thanks to all who are supporting me. :)  Love, Dolly
