    Calories: Yes
    Exercise:30 mins weight training, 30 mins walk

    Comments: Wasn't going to do the walk, but the weight training went so much better than I thought it would and I ended up finishing early, so decided to add a nice walk in, and went outside forgetting how cold it was, but I finished anyway :smile:

    I was over, over by an embarrassing amount. I had the whole day planned, but then life happened and hormones happened and I just tipped the kitchen into my face. I regret everything, I will try harder today.

    I’m in the same place with you today. But tomorrow is another day. And I think my garbage can could use some junk food in it! And I think my exercise bike is pretty lonely! So those are my goals for tomorrow!! How about you?

    Walk more, eat less! I just need to keep away from the chocolate stash and my bad influence husband!

    @catvlmack It's a process and some days will be better than others, you just have to pick up the pieces and carry on when it's not so great. You got this!

    Today is my weigh in day, so let me introduce myself. I am 47, a wife, mom of 3 teens, and work full time. I never permanently lost the baby weight from my kids when I was in my early 30s and in the past two years it has crept up even higher since hitting menopause. I was always a healthy weight as a child, teen, and into adulthood, never dieted, always ate whatever I wanted. Metabolism changed and now my lifetime of poor eating habits is a real problem. I am a soft drink addict which is a gateway "drug" to other unhealthy foods. I'm tired of being fat, feeling fat, and not looking good in my clothes. I'm also finally afraid for my health. I've been fortunate so far, and am not on any medication for anything, but the thought of causing myself to need it scares me. I've lost weight (25 pounds) 7 years ago on WW, but gained it back plus more. After spending $$$ on books, gym memberships, and dvd's, I can't justify spending anymore money on another "program". I know what I need to do. I am lacking the will to start, as there is always tomorrow. So here I am. My long term goal is to lose 60ish pounds, putting me at a healthy 150. My goal for January is to drink more water and get under 200. I'd say eliminate soft drinks, but I think focusing on the replacement might put me in a better mindset.
    SW 214
    Goal weight 150
    Goal for January-drink 80oz water per day
    PW 214
    CW 209.4 (January 3)

    NSV: I got myself onto the exercise bike just as I wanted this morning, after the kids were off to school! This is big for me!

    Who else has NSV today??

    It’s only one day and tomorrow is another! Focus on tomorrow and promise yourself to meet your small goals for that day, then do the same for the next! Success is day to day. I have to remind myself that often. Big goals are met in small steps!! You’ll get it tomorrow!!

    Weigh in week: January Week 1
    Weigh in day: Thursday
    Previous Weight: 162.7
    Current Weight: 166.7

    I realize that it's not an actual 5 lb gain in a week... but daaayyyyuuummmmm
    Cookies. We will have cookies for the entire month of January and we seriously aren't done with holiday dinners and stuff. This weekend will be the last one....
    Definitely feeling the reality of a 10 lb weight gain from the beginning of Dec to the beginning of Jan though. I'm not entirely happy about it, but I'm not in the mind set yet to shed lbs immediately. Just gonna make little changes here and there right now and work my way up to the big cuts.

    PS - I need a vacation after the holidays. Its "people/chaos overload"! My toddler has been sleeping like 16 hrs a day the past few days just to recover from all the craziness. Wish I could do that.....
