Started today in Ohio !

Happy New Year!

So I got up bright and early this morning and went to my first weight watcher meeting of the New Year and started the Monthly Pass. My weight was what I thought it was so there was no big surprise there.

Here is my funny little thing today, so with the new plan your Fruits and Veggies are zero points. Well the lady in front of me who I am going to call "the fruit Lady" apparently does not like that idea, I thought there was going to be a smack down! So I get what she was saying, that some fruits have sugar, ok but then as another lady said, the sugar in Fruits are unprocessed. Here is what I have to say, If you don't like it, then do it the old way or don't do it all. I thought the whole thing of weight watchers is teaching you to control your portions and choose the correct foods. I didn't think Fruits and Veggies can kill you, but as with everything they have to be done in moderation, you can't have 5 oranges in one day. Then the guy next to her said he has not lost any weight on the new plan, his concept is well if fruits are zero points then I can still have the 6oz Steak. WHAT? When a lady told him to count his calories with the fruit included to see if his calorie count was ok and that maybe he was eating to many fruits, he said he didn't have time and he was there because it was easy to just count points and that is why he was there. Really Give a little would you! AGAIN MODERATION!

So from today, I learned one thing, that we need to MAKE TIME! Make time for ourselves, have the others in our life clean up after dinner, instead of sitting on the computer for 20 minutes, talk a walk. And don't bitch about the plan, you are wasting my time and everyone elses to.

So my goal for the week: take at least a 15 min walk every day, Drink 2 bottles of water a day, work out 3 times this week and do my point tracker

Motivation, there was an older gentleman, being doing weight watchers for 6 months and has lost 59 pounds!

So I will most likely just post every Sunday, unless something funny or exciting happens.

Good luck to all of you!
