Back on the horse

Last March I joined Weight Watchers because I wanted to lose quite a bit of weight. Within the first three months I lost almost 40 lbs by eating healthier and walking almost everyday. Over the summer, I lost my routine and since then I haven't lost any weight. I have hovered in between 315 -320 lbs for about 5 months now. I got back into some of my old eating habits and not engaging in much exercising. I started eating McDonalds, HoHos, Chips Ahoy, Taco Bell and other delicious but unhealthy things on a regular basis. Thank goodness that we had as much snow as we did or else I would have gained a lot more weight over the winter.

I weighed myself today and I am currently at 323.2 lbs. My first target is to get down to 300 lbs. I hope to do that by following a healthier diet and exercising more. It seems like we are starting to come out of winter so I might be able to walk more. I also purchased the Weight Watchers cookbook. I will be trying out new recipes and hopefully posting about them during the week. I am also cutting out fast food for an unknown length of time. Last year I held out for three months, hopefully I can do that again. I will also be trying to limit the number of sweets I eat. I will also try to limit the amount of pop I drink. The road to 300 begins now...
