Looking into the mirror in the dressing room was enough to bring on temper tantrums the likes of which this city hasnt seen in a long time. I know I dont own many mirrors, and many of my new pants are elastic waisted, so no buttons to pop and loads of room to grow. I knew I had stretched but had NO idea! OMG! 
Since DH just started his new diet I have decided to try WW. I can eat any foods I choose, and with the new points tracker as long as I can calculate how much fat/carbs/fiber in a product I can figure out how many points its worth. Im just stunned. I seriously had NO idea I looked this bad. I dragged out many clothes because its salvation army time, and was really ticked off that many of my nice clothes dont even come close to fitting me.
So...I will be 49 in about a month. I plan on spending this last year of my 40s getting me back in shape to face my fabulous 50 as a fit and confindent woman. I refuse to march into that room of 50 year old women as a frump who is plump. Im just stunned that it happened right before my very own eyes and I didnt bother to see it. OMG! Stunner!
Anyone else do WW?? can you help me figure it out? They have a new system that I dont under stand. |
I did WW online and lost 30lbs in six months in 08, then a bad flair and steroid complications threw that all out the window. I am starting WW, sort of, I'm doing it with the information I have and on my own at home. My husband is doing it with me, well, he's following the program but I plan and fix all of his food
I can't tell you anything about the "new" system. But if you have any question about the older stuff I could tell you. So if you just ask a specific question I can try and answer for you, that way if you don't know what is new or not I will just help with what I can.
I've got 57lbs to loose and I'm so tired of this. If you find a way to exercise that doesn't throw your MS on red alert I would love to hear some tips. Every time I exercise, no matter how easy I try to go, it aggravates my MS symptoms and I'm miserable for days.
I would love to hear about your progress if you're willing to share!
