Let's see how this goes!

I (re)joined Weight Watchers last week because they were having a special (join for three months upfront and they'd waive the sign up fee.  Essentially, it was about the same for 3 months / no sign up fee than it was for 1 month / sign up and it means I don't have to worry about the price until about April.

I'm going to try and not over obsess about it because that'll be my downfall for sure.  I need to revisit some things, like always making sure I have that pre-breakfast fruit snack and having breakfast, that fell on the wayside.  Eating smaller meals a few times a day is the best thing for me and I've been really bad about having breakfast, which means I'm starving by the time lunch rolls around.

So of course my first true Weight Watchers week falls on Restaurant Week in DC.  *grins*  Again, not obsessing and not going to be guilty about the fact that I'm going out with Marissa on Wednesday (to The Willow) and Lauren on Friday (to The Monocle [and yes, I was intrigued by the name but it looks really good!]).

My plan on the way home on Monday is to stop by the Aquatic Center and sign up for their gym because doing the food thing only gets me so far if I don't work out.

If I don't obsess and beat myself up, there's less chance that I'll trip myself up.

Whoo! I'm getting back on my own Path To Health and look forward to seeing how you do! Good luck.

Thanks, you as well! It'll be interesting, that's for sure.

I've been toying with the idea of the unofficial WW app, Ultimate Weight Watcher Diary for my phone. Of course, the issue is that I am horrible at eating to begin with, and pretty much consume what is put in front of me these days. :/

Ooh, Aquatic Center as in pool, or?

I'm like that on the weekends when I have no set schedule like I do at work. I'm actually hoping that my desire to, you know, track helps me maintain something that isn't "Oh, it's 1 and I haven't eaten yet. Whoops. What's in the fridge?" XD It's my love of inputting things into spreadsheets that I'll be relying on.

Yep! It's got a leisure (with a slide!) and a competition pool plus the fitness center and the fee covers access to all three. I'm planning on digging out my bathing suit and doing at least one day in the pool to break up my work outs.
