Just like starting over

Hello readers.  Yes, it's been a while.  I have to say, I've been suffering from writers block when it comes to the old blog.  But that has passed and I am back with more fun weight loss adventures.  :)

Actually, the blog isn't the only thing I've been neglecting.  I recently went back to Weight Watchers after not going to any meetings or tracking my food for over 3 months.  I have to say, I was a little hesitant about going back.  I was sure when I got on the scale I would be back to my original start weight and have to start all over again.  So I was very surprised when I got on the scale and had lost 1.4 pounds.  I was so shocked that I asked the woman if I could get off and get back on the scale to make sure it was correct.  I guess I did learn something from attending meetings and tracking food because I went for 3 months on my own and still lost some weight.  Now, mind you, I don't believe I can completely do this on my own.  I do feel that I have better success when I am paying attention to what I am eating and writing down my food and activity.  It was just nice to not have to start all over again.  It was also nice to attend a meeting and be welcomed back to Weight Watchers.  It didn't matter that I hadn't been to a meeting in over 3 months, what was important was that I was there and that I participated in the discussion.

I do still believe I can lose weight and get healthy.  It's a journey and, sometimes, I get sidetracked.  The important thing is to get back on the road.  So thank you for reading and I promise you won't have to wait another month for a new post. :)
