...sigh... The not-so-fun part of all "THIS"

Well, I did it.  I started Weight Watchers again last night.  I joined right after college when I was still living at home.  My mom and I used to go to meetings together, and it was great to have someone in your house eating the same things you were.  The best part: I lost some 20 pounds.  It was great!  But within a year of quitting, I had gained it all back.

So I'm back at it, again.  But this time it's the *~*NEW*~* Weight Watchers Plus program.  After my first meeting last night, I'm confident that I can lose the weight... if I stick with the program.  Weekdays will be easy.  As long as I pack my lunch, I'll have no problem staying in the good foods arena.  I can track everything from my school computer (the online method of tracking is amazing!).

My biggest enemy: weekends.  Weekends are my time to relax, rejeuvinate, and spend time with Jason.  And when we are together, we are just so dang indecisive.  It's awful!  We can never decide when or what we want to eat until we are super-hungry and ready to pick the fastest thing possible.  We tend to eat out more than half the time.  This has to stop.  We've talked and decided to try to limit our eating out to once a weekend.  That's doable... right?  I'm also worried I won't track my points carefully over the weekend.  Yes, I have the iPhone app for it, but it's just easier to not do it.  Who wants to track points when you can be facebooking or playing games?

So my goal: my college weight (losing some 34 pounds).  I loved the way I looked and felt then.  I'm hoping to be there by the beginning of summer.  I'd love to be able to go dress shopping this summer and not lose/gain between
then and the wedding.  I know people that have bought their dress, lost weight, and then not liked how they looked in the dress with their new body.  And I'm hoping that dress will serve as some motivation to maintain the weight loss until the wedding.  Maybe I just need to hang dress pictures all over the fridge or snack cupboard!

So in the words of the band Whitesnake: Here I go again!
(wish me luck!)
