Yesterday - First day on Weight Watchers

I went to the meeting.  It was inspiration.  I enjoyed it.  

Last night, however, I wanted to eat so bad.  Now usually by 930 at night, I'm cool.  I'm not hungry.  But now that I have to count points and stay within that point value, my mind is playing tricks on me!  You would have thought I hadn't eaten anything for the day and I was a starving child from Africa!  

This is a good lesson in patience.....

Changing your lifestyle is really about willpower and keeping control over your thoughts.  Thoughts can be very powerful, so I really have to learn to control them when I think about my body, what I'm eating, WHY I'm eating it and what it all means.  I made it through and eventually I went to sleep, but this morning I'm feeling that really hungry.  And usually I'm not a breakfast eater....(apart of my downfall - I don't eat breakfast to give me energy and fuel for the day...but that's another story for another day!)

So, today is day two.  And I'm back at it.  I've got some fresh fruit and nuts for breakfast.  And well lunch, I can't think that far ahead right now.  Once I get in the swing of things, I'll learn how to plan ahead. 

It's Friday! Yay!!!!
