Welcome to November

Alrighty.  October was supposed to be my month to get back on track.  I was going to go on my modified WW plan that worked last time (things I usually eat on weight watchers, but I didn't measure, etc).  Turns out, that didn't work.

I'm still at the same weight I was in January, people.

I lost about 8 pounds of that before the move, I've gained those back.  Booo.....

So, here we are at 166. 

I'm not really sure of my goal weight.  I do know my BMI would be "normal" at 154.  I know a lot of people who poo-poo the whole BMI thing, but I think it's pretty darn right.  So, I think my goal is like 145... enough to give me a bit of wiggle room and still be "normal"  So, that's just about 20 pounds to lose.

I've just kinda been thinking, "WHY ISN'T THIS WORKING, it worked LAST time!?"  I'll tell you why it worked last time, I had just done weight watchers.  Once you do it for an extended period of time you just reset your body, your mind, your stomach.

And I need that.  I need a reset button.

This isn't to say that I haven't had a REALLY hard year.  I've had a lot of turmoil.  I GET why I've gained some weight (and 158 was kind of a one day occurrence I was more like 160 most of the time)... I just need to stop.

Enough with the excuses, right Mary? :)

So, this morning I woke up thinking, I am going to start counting points today.  Which was ridiculous, because I was scheduled to work today.  I called into work, and they said they probably wouldn't need me... so, I guess it was kismet, me and points today.

So, who's with me?  I'd like to hear what people like to eat on weight watchers.  Things they think are healthy and taste good.  I'm pretty good on dinner recipes but I need some during the day ideas.  Fruit messes with me, so I try not to eat too much of it (it sends my blood sugar all wacky -- anyone else?). 

One two three four five six seven eight nine ten.... {ala sesame street} (fyi, I am at 12 points eaten so far today and I'm gonna have a bowl of popcorn after I edit some awesome photos).
