Stressfull Week

The end of the fiscal year at work equals a extremly stressful week for me.  I have been so stressed this week but have NOT turned to food once this is huge for me.    I really feel like this could be the time that I do this.

I did have a really great moment this week.  When I went to my weight watchers meeting I lost 6.2 pounds.....

Starting is hard

Here I go again at 42 years old.  Why didn't I do this when I was 20.  I need to learn patience because it took me 42 years to get to this weight and I am not going to lose it overnight.  That will be my biggest struggle through this process.   I starting Weight Watches again on 8/29/07, I am more determined than ever to lose this weight.  I cringe everytime I think about weighing over 300 pounds.   I have done so many diets in my life, but I need to do this, there is to much heart disease and diabetis in my family to ignore it any longer.  I am not very good at talking about myself but I wanted to document my journey so far.  I am doing water aerobics and weight watchers and I am determined to get the weight off.  I want to lose at least 100 pounds by 12/31/08, my husband and I want to go to Hawaii in 2009 to celebrate our 5th anniversary but I don't want to be the beached whale when I am there and I really want to do some snorkeling.  So here goes.
