Weight Watchers

Weight Watchers has been going quite well actually. I have a certain number of points each day (currently 31) and with those points they include some guidelines: 5 fruits and vegetables, 2 dairy, 2 healthy oils, 6 liquids and 2 lean proteins, along with my vitamins and whole grains.

A lot of people have commented about how hard it is to stick to their allotted points the first week, but I have felt quite satisfied. I know it is about the choices. I eat an apple for 2 points instead of a mini snickers bar for 2 points.

I have lost almost 4 pounds in 2 weeks. I hope this progress continues.

I have decided to reward myself when I reach my three 20 pound goals.
First 20 lbs: to be determined, any ideas?
Second 2o lbs: Get a sitter and rent a hotel room where Curtis and I stayed after we got married (with a whirlpool)
Third 20 lbs, when I reach my goal weight...drum roll please.....
Curtis is going to take me to Hawaii!! He agreed with it so I'm going to make him stick to it! =)

I really need to start exercising. I know it will help me loose weight and keep my muscle and have more energy, I am just having a really hard time fitting it in, but I will cause I need to.

Last weigh in: April 11th 238.6 lbs
Down: 3.8 lbs

I am trying to hide my chubby face from the camera, not realizing Curtis is getting my torso too. I can't wait to be ok with getting my picture taken.
