Starting alllll over!
Hi everyone!
A few years ago, I lost 30 lbs on Weight Watchers. I started out at 217, the heaviest I'd ever been. I got a bit careless and gained about 15 lbs back, and then I got pregnant. My baby (my first!) is now 7 months old, and the scale's been stuck at 234 since about 2 weeks after she was born. But now it's up to 241!
*sigh*
So I'm starting over. My self-esteem's at an all-time low, and this is the time when I should be happiest - I have a beautiful healthy baby who is just so much fun and brings so much joy to my life. But today I had to put on one of my maternity sweaters because none of my old clothes fit me, and enough's enough!
I'm starting back on the WW plan. I can't afford to go to meetings right now, but I have all of my old booklets and magazines (being a packrat has paid off!) and I'm starting fresh. I won't be able to lose weight as quickly as I'd like, because I'm still breastfeeding and hope to continue until my daughter is at least a year old. I have a couple of Lesley Sansone DVDs, a yoga DVD and a pilates DVD, and along with daily walks with the stroller, I should be able to get some exercise.
I just wanted to say hi and I'm looking forward to joining in and getting serious about getting back into my old clothes, one little step at a time!
