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.

Weekly Weight Update

Wednesday morning is when Sister1 and I do our weekly weigh ins. We have two weeks under our belt of following the Weight Watchers online program and I'm excited to share the news that I have lost another 3 pounds. That brings my total weight loss to 7 pounds in 14 days. I'm hoping Week 3 will bring another 3 or 4 pound weight loss and I have to say the lower number on the scale is helping to stay motivated. This is not my first time doing WW. I did the program back in 1995 and lost 32 pounds. Again at work where a WW rep comes to the office to hold the meetings and I lost 35 pounds back in 1999. Those pounds have been back on my waistline for quite some time. I have not gotten back to the weight before I had my daughter in 2004, forget about what baby number 2 has added in 2007. Stressful work year last year was the clincher and added 20 pounds.

So what am I going to do to stay on track and make sure I don't falter? I will continue to keep my house stocked with fruits and vegetables. I will continue to measure out my meals so I stay on top of portion control. AND I am still following the 'slow down' technique that I started in week 2. As far as on the blog, I plan on taking pictures of all the food I'm eating in one day. That will definitely happen one day this week.

I leave you all with this thought of the day: For others that are trying to loose weight, every pound you loose is equivalent to 4 sticks of butter. I have lost in 14 days a total of 28 sticks of butter off of my body. WOW!
