Deltagurl, welcome for real this time! I just started a blog and that has been helping keep me honest. I like reading some of the other ones too in case they have heard of other new foods or any tips. Check out the hungry girl website. They have a great list of foods to shop for at the grocery store that will help keep you on the path of weight loss. I just had my ten-year reunion and lost 23 pounds, thank goodness, in time for it. I have lost about 12 more and am nearing my goal. I already have a new goal for when I reach that one.
I think it is best to pick a plan. I have tried to do the "just eating healthier and working out four or five times a week" thing, and that, for me, doesn't work. I am doing WW, and it is very easy for me to stick with. I am smaller than I have been in about eight years, and I feel so strong! I also thing writing down what you eat everyday helps keep you honest, which you can do in a blog as well. In fact, that is all some people write about in their blogs. I have a little moleskin that helps me keep track. I write down how much I weigh every morning, the date, what exercise I did that day, and what I eat. Lately I have been looking at when I started all of this, April 2008, and it is crazy to see how much progress I've made. I never thought I would hit my pre-pregnancy weight again, or what I weighed when I graduated high school. Good luck to you!
