Weight Watchers Weigh in Day 1

I did my weigh in this morning for the first time in well over a month. 204.5-could have been worse since my latest eating frenzy.  Time to really make Weight Watchers work for me this time. After all, I know from experience that the plan works if you plan ahead, journal and stick with it.

I started my morning with a bowl of low sugar oatmeal (maple and brown sugar) for 2 points as well as my coffee (another 2 points for the half and half). I also sprinkled cinnamon on my oatmeal because it is supposed to help keep blood sugar steady.  I haven’t laid out my whole diet menu plan for the day yet but will probably have a diet smoothie for lunch and a frozen meal and soup for dinner.  Tonight I will post exactly what I ate for the day.

Last night was a bad case of insomnia so I am going on about 4 hours of sleep. Still, I am not going to use that as an excuse to eat junk food or fill up on soda.  I keep hearing about “eating clean” which I am assuming means less processed food and more whole food.  I probably do lean toward too many processed foods but over time I plan to incorporate more whole foods into my diet.

I think later I will post a before picture here on my blog and perhaps take a new picture each month (or every milestone).  Right now I think my first goal is just to get back in the 190s.

Well I am off to get some things done. I want to move a lot today even though I am a bit sleep deprived.  I really want to consider this the first day of the rest of my life and I have so many changes that need to be made. I really want to lose the weight and the clutter from my life once and for all!
