WW Day 1

Well, this may not be as hard as I thought it would be.  I mean, it will take some adjusting but I can handle this, I think.  Dinner was good.  I looked up some recipes online that gave the points plus total, so we ended up with shrimp, rice and brussel sprouts, making a meal of 9pp for me, and 12pp for hubby (due to serving sizes).  It was really good and filling. 
Dessert was a cake I have always wanted to make, but never did because I knew, in my mind, I would rationalize it as, "But it is so low calorie, I can have more!!"  It is the pineapple angel food cake.  You just mix a box of angel food cake mix and a can of crushed pineapple together and topped with coolwhip lite, it is not even 4pp per serving.  Nom nom.

I like teh maths

Well, I decided I should try the new Weight Watchers.  My sister and grandmother have both done it, and I never really liked it, but the newer Points Plus program I like a little more.  On the Points Plus program, most fruits and veggies count as 0 points, which will make it easy for me to snack.
I like math so the counting and math will be entertaining for me.

Best of all, I am not doing it alone.  My partner in crime, Mandy, is going to do it with me, (as long as I help her figure her points and such for a while).  Since Mandy is moving in with me in January, we will have a good solid shot of doing this together.

Another thing I like about the new WW PP is that I can "earn" extra points by exercising.  This means all of my time on the treadmill will be worth points, and I can have a more worthwhile snack.

The addition of the weekly "bonus points" that everyone gets means I can have a ladies night every so often and not feel bad about it!

Oh yes, the treadmill.  I am back in the groove slowly.  I was cleared to work as long as I don't have pain, but it took me 2 workouts to rill my LEFT ankle.  Luckily I was holding on and did not do much damage over a little swelling and soreness, so I now go everywhere in two full braces.  It is really hard to coordinate pinup wardrobe with two braces, but I will make it work. 

So here is to trying again.

Oh, also, you may notice that the runner at the top has changed.  I have decided to set myself a very short term goal, and that is to get back to  my pre-pregnancy weight of 185.  This will be goal number 1.
My ticker will reflect that until I reach 185.  Then I will set an additional goal.
