Well, it’s the week after Thanksgiving, and I indulged. Big time. Last year I remember I actually did phenomenally well on Thanksgiving. Alas, not this year. *Sigh.
On a high note, I got right back on track with portion control and cutting out junk and soda.
As I mentioned in my DIY Wedding Weight Loss post I lost 40 pounds on Weight Watchers back in 2004. It was a system that really worked great for me. It was in the news on Monday that WeightWatchers unveiled their PointsPlus system, a new update to their tried-and-true points system. I’m not sure how I feel about the change, since it doesn’t take into account calories, but instead macronutrients. However, I want to make WeightWatchers the keystone of my weight loss once again.
So, I’ll update all my old recipes for new points values, and get right back on track by not going over my points. I think the new system will take some getting used to, but I’m confident that I can lose weight following the program.
Here’s my weekly workout summary:

I weighed in this morning, and I will consider that my “starting weight” for my wedding weight loss efforts. Is it a challenge to start a diet in December? Maybe. But I’m signing up for one of my favorite blogger’s December fitness challenge to keep me motivated.
