Just a little advice

I’m no expert but...

It absolutely astonishes me when I see people on social media say that they’re on this or that diet but they’re not exercising, so they’re surprised when the weight is either not coming off or they’re losing very little. Really? I wonder why?

You have to exercise. You have to burn the calories and fat.

And just being on a plan isn’t the final solution. Yes, I’m on Weight Watchers, but it’s only a tool for guidance. Weight loss takes more than just a plan to make the pounds and inches disappear. I’ve said it many times and I’ll probably say it many more times: there is no magic to weight loss. (Even people who have weight loss surgery have to watch what they eat and exercise.)

So, put one foot in front of the other and work that body.

Giving This Another Shot

Over the weekend my daughter and son in law had a house warming party at their new house, so once I was all dolled up, I thought I’d get my son to take a full length picture of me. I immediately deleted it.

I’m disgusted at myself for gaining any weight back. 

So on Sunday I decided to join Weight Watchers. Before I was never one to do programs but I’ve gotten to the point of not being able to do this weight loss journey without a map. I’m doing the freestyle points program that they’re advertising now and it’s super easy.

Watching those points add up (or not) really helps. You see where the big points really are and with me, I don’t want those points going over so I avoid high point foods.

I’ve started walking again and racking up the Fitbit steps.

Anyway, I’m back on the weight loss journey and this time I’m more determined than ever to get to my goal!

I had my son take another picture so I can save it for progress.
