Weight Watchers. I'm only on day two (so far so good!) and the most beneficial aspect of the program has been realizing just how many points the foods I eat are! I have some running around to do today and I thought, I'll swing by Panera and pick up a sandwich and a cup of soup....checked my points and NO! I will not be stopping by Panera for a sandwich (maybe the 7 or 8 points for the soup is worth it....maybe...) but I will be swinging by the store and picking up turkey and some fruits and veggies.
I joined Weight Watchers to track my weight loos and what I'm eating - I've been having a very hard time losing weight over the last 5 years after becoming really sick and needing a prolonged treatment of steroids. I have an appointment with a specialist in April (3 month wait....really?!) and wanted to show that I really do put effort in trying to lose the weight.
Many times, I feel that you go to the doctor, explain that something is wrong and they look at you and say...."you need to exercise, eat healthy, cut out sodas....blah blah blah" - I'm not lazy and I do exercise, I don't drink (a lot) of soda, and I do eat fairly healthy! After five years of an ongoing fight to figure out why I have the body and health issues of a 60+ year old lady, I'm going to track the heck out of what enters my mouth (and everything else going on) and they are going to listen!
I'll report back throughout the next 3 months but unfortunately, I'm not expecting huge progress. I also figured I had noting to lose by doing this....other than some weight : )
