New Year's Resolutions

It happens every year.  Millions of people pledge to lose weight and exercise more.  I'm one of those millions and I am pleased to admit--I've hit rock bottom.

I am the heaviest I have ever been (even when pregnant) and I'm sick of the extra flab that makes it hard for me to live my life.  That roll that acts like a double (triple) chin around my middle.  The tiredness, the crankiness, and the pain of having to shop in plus size stores.

I may be the only person who reads this blog, but I think it will help me tracking my weight as well as sharing my feelings.

Here are my before pictures - disgusting, I know.  But I think documenting this is so important.

January 2, 2011 - Weight 252.2 (down from 255)
Measurements to come
Mood = tired - didn't sleep well, but did enjoy time with the family
Exercise = none today

So, What am I going to do to lose the weight?  I have joined Weight Watchers.  I am not saying this is the plan for everyone.  Each person has to make their own choice and see if it is the right, healthy option.  For me, I know it works.  It has worked for me in the past.  I just have to find out how to keep it working for the long haul.  I am doing the online version.  That was one of the points I didn't like about physical meetings - the humiliation of weighing in before other people and hearing if you lost or gained publicly.
