Weight Watchers Week 1 - reflections

Today marks the end of my first week on the plan, and I have a few reflections.

1.   This isn't a reflection, but I lost 4 pounds!  I was very excited!  I worked really hard at it this week, so I wasn't surprised that I did well, but still happy about it. 

2.  Food really affects my mood.  Being hungry makes me grouchy!  I THINK it's because of my blood sugar crashes, but, whatever the reason, I was a bear!  I have a great husband for putting up with me this week!

3.  Even "keeping track" of my food intake, I was underestimating how many times I grabbed stuff on the go!

4.  Being active again after 4 months of virtually NO activity while in the boot is hard!!  I love to walk, stretch, do yoga, etc., but it's tough to get back to being reasonably in shape!

5.  Taking a 4 year old with boundless energy with you to walk is a wonderful motivator, and every entertaining! 

6.  This will be a lifelong process for me.   It's time I just come to grips with it! 

7.  You can't do this without support!  At least, I can't!

8.  Eating out is a bad idea....for so many reasons!
