Here I go!

I am emotional eater. Yeap, and that has put me in that dark place of eating without caring and gaining 25 pounds in the last 6 months. NOT GOOD!

There have been many individual situations reminding me of my vision -- to be healthy and live a long, healthy life for my baby boy. So, I vow to myself to get back on the bandwagon and track my food intake, measure and weigh what I eat, and make wise choices...like being present when I start emotionally eating and find ways to prevent it. I am not going to deprive myself from eating what I like but I am going to eat in moderation. I know how to follow Weight Watchers and have been successful before, I have measuring cups and spoons, and I have a food scale - NO EXCUSES!

This morning I started by giving away the chocolate-covered-cake-lolli-pops-shaped-like-roses I got this weekend, measuring my breakfast, finding their WW point values, documenting it on my planner, and starting this blog. I really debated starting this but it helped me 3-4 years ago when I did this so although I won't have many followers I can at least talk to myself and encourage myself along.

I have a lot of weight to lose but I am going to take it one pound at a time.

Let's Go! Two, Three! ;-) (my little homage to Sebastian)
