So I have been really getting into Weight Watchers the past week. I documented every day (this is the first week that I did it EVERY day). I am starting to feel better b/c I am eating better etc. I really only had one bad day this week. And my day was bad for several reasons. First, I really wanted some chocolate at lunch, so I got 2 chocolate chip cookies (1 would have been plenty), and then I felt guilty and thought I had ruined my whole week. For awhile in the afternoon all I could think about was those 2 damn cookies!! Then I got scared. I was like I am going to have to count points every day for the REST OF MY LIFE. I dont wanna do that. It seems to hard. Then I stopped for fast food on my way home from work. YIKES!!
But, the reality is, I am going to have to count points for the rest of my life. I dont see any other way that I will be able to keep my weight in tact. And that is not so bad.... I would rather count points everyday than have to take medication everyday!! So after my minor freak out I was able to get back on track.
It is much better for me if I only think of one day at a time & not the rest of my life when I eat 2 cookies (& man were they good) :)

Hang in there, Heather. You don't have to count points for the rest of your life. In time, you will know what to eat, and what not to eat.
The key is to log everything you eat. When you have a week of gains, it is important to go back to the log to see the reasons why. For example, one week, I polished off a tin of caramel corn that I got for Christmas. I was only having 2-3 handfuls a day, so I thought it was minor. However, after I weighed myself for the week, I saw that I had gained 1.5 pounds. After viewing my log, I could see the reason why. However, if I hadn't recorded it, I might not have realized it.
It's a little discipline now, but it will be SO worth it. You look HOT now, so I can only imagine how much HOTTER you will be in time. Have mercy!
