Last Sunday night I was the only one up and I was sitting and thinking about a little bit of everything. I started thinking about my weight and got upset with myself. After I had the twins, I dropped a tremendous amount of weight, well I guess if you were carrying close to 14lbs in baby not including my water weight…my weight got the highest its EVER been. And although I was pregnant with twins it was hard seeing that number on the scale. After I had the babies, I did a lot of walking because Darrick was in the hospital, the first week I let Darrick wheel me around in a wheelchair when we got to the hospital but its such close quarters it was hard moving around in the NICU with a wheelchair. So I started walking at the hospital, we would valet park, or he would drop me off at the door and I would walk from there.
My weight started dropping off…
Then Darrick II passed and ate for comfort…and to be completely honest I haven’t recovered from it. I still am eating my feelings, but I have noticed there is a problem and I want to catch it before it gets out of hand. I CANNOT get back up to the weight I was when I was pregnant (with TWO babies)!
This is me now…
My face has FILLED back out…besides my stomach my face shows it all because its already round!
I have tried Weight Watchers (and been successful) but this time, I have a plan. Its been a week and I weighed in yesterday…and I had gained 1.4lbs. Now, I knew I had a rough week last week as far as eating, so I have to get back on it today and make sure I am tracking my foods like I am supposed to be.
So on to this week…I have to do better! Like I said I knew last week that I didn’t really start on the right track so this week we went out and got me some running shoes so Darrick and I can get some jogs in when he gets home! Also, my sister is starting a running group in our neighborhood and I am really excited about getting started, I have secretly always wanted to be a runner…so finally Im going to do it!
Yesterday I did pretty well at tracking my food…my choices weren’t 100% the best but I am trying!
Have you ever tried Weight Watchers?
If so, what tips do you have to help me succeed?
