A bit of background info....

Way back when I was a young girl I was a *gasp* size 4! Now this was of course before I had my so-super-wonderful-wouldn't-change-a-thing-about-her daughter. I am 5 feet 4 inches. Not too tall not too short. While I was pregnant I gained *another gasp* 100 lbs. Shocking I know! Well my sweet Bunny (she doesn't like to be called that anymore) weighed 9 lbs. 2 oz. yes, yes another gasp. The day after I had her I had already lost 60 lbs. ok ok another gasp. I stayed a size 10 for about a year or two after I had her. After that it was impossible to keep the weight off. At my heaviest I weighed 230. (Enough with the gasping already!!)

Very recently I had a great friend give me some super advice, join Weight Watchers! (Thanks, Helen!) So amazing that two words could change everything. When I joined WW 3 weeks ago I weighed 223 lbs. After 3 weeks of point counting I am super excited to say that I have lost 7 lbs. My first goal is to lose 10% which would be 22.3 lbs. I have little mini goals with incentives as I go along to keep me motivated. I really enjoy counting points and if it wasn't for the online tracker I would have lost interest long ago. So this ends my first entry. I will post some of the thoughts I posted on my myspace blog tomorrow.
