I feel like the biggest loser...

So, you all know that I lost 60lbs and hit goal (2nd/lower goal) in summer of '07. Well, I've gained all by 20lbs of it back...because I apparantly suck. I really can't explain why I gained it all back. I was still very careful with my portions and my choices, etc. I basically followed the "maintanance" part of the plan I used and still those pounds crept back on.

So, I thought, I better go back on the weight loss part of the plan. I tried. I tried over and over and just felt so resentful of the fact that, once again, I was eating just about nothing (after taking a year to do the first time) and got crabby and miserable. My head would feel all confused and I couldn't get back the structure. Man, I was just PISSED.

Along comes the commercial for the free week of Weight Watchers online. Wait...what? Weight Watchers without the meetings? Yep. I checked. That's exactly what it is. I'm only on day 3 of my week, but I'm LOVING it. Weight Watchers has worked for me in the past. I just hated meetings and without the accountability of the weigh-ins it was too easy to slack off.

So...I am weighing in ONCE A WEEK! I refuse to weigh in more than that or I go to the crazy place of weighing 20+ times/day and I just don't think that's healthy...at least not for me. I am eating what I want to eat, what I like to eat. I'm finding it hard to eat all of points each day, actually. So, Friday is my weigh in day. I guess we'll see how it's working then, but for now, I'm thrilled that I found something great for me, right now.
