I'm Back

Yes, I'm back. I think this time for good. I had a very, very rough time over the summer. I was failing miserably with my diet, and because of that, I couldn't bring myself to write in my blog. The thought of writing "I screwed up again today," every day, was too much for me. I had to get my diet in hand, and my feelings about it.

I've started over. This time I'm using Weight Watchers online. I started on Monday, and so far so good. Although counting points is basically the same as counting calories, but I don't have to do the figuring. All I have to do is plug in the food, and once in, I just have to hit it again and it's back in there. Besides, I can access my records from any computer. I certainly won't be proselytizing. I'm just trying a different direction. Besides, because I have to pay membership, I won't want to waste that membership. So far, it's succeeding. I've lost 2 pounds. I know that doesn't sound like much, but I gained back a lot of the weight I lost last fall, and it feels good to be going in the right direction again.

I won't promise that I'll write every day, but I do promise that I'm back and I'm going to make a concerted effort to stick to it.

Today, Joey and I went out to the state park and walked on the trail they have out there. We haven't been out there in nearly a year and it was good. Poor Joey is pooped though. She's lying collapsed on the floor. It's good for both of us.

Oh, and I'll continue to try new recipes on a regular basis. I think the next one will be ratatouille. Yes, just like the Disney cartoon.

Thanks for sticking by me.
