Intro

Yesterday two sisters had a brain storm. After eating our weight in Easter chocolate we came together with a similar conclusion in an instant: "We better do something about our fat asses right NOW!" We've both struggled individually over a decade with our weight and this time we are teaming up to battle the bulge. The decision to blog about it in an open forum, instead of the Weight Watchers site is so we can be brutally honest. This is going to be one hilarious weight loss trip.

Feeling Better About MySelf and Scared At The Same Time

I am starting to feel a little better about myself. I don't feel as bloated as I did. My kids and husband also notice a change in my face. At the same time I am feeling scared. This is usually when I can start to get a little cocky too. You feel lighter and your clothes aren't as tight. I start to feel better and what do I do, I reward myself usually with food. I have to remind myself this is just the very beginning of my journey. Thank god I have my sister for support to help me continue and not give up. I need to get over this hump. Will it ever get any easier? I have to keep telling myself, I can do this just stick to the program. I am hoping when I lose at least 20/25lbs I will feel so much better that I won't look back and I will keep moving forward.

  1. I totally hear you because I have been tempted to reward with food also. I have not though trying to remember this is the beginning of a long journey. We will have small slip-ups and indulgences but as a whole those need to be isolated incidents, not daily occurrences.

  2. Sister1 I know exactly what you mean! I do the same thing...have some success and then feel like that I can now give myself a big piece of cake, for example. But, I read a wonderful blog today on the WW site about a woman who suddenly realized making healthy food choices was becoming second nature, and she was not feeling like it was a challenge making the good choices. I look forward to that day. Stick with it, you'll get there too.
