Thank you to everyone who has stumbled across my blog, whether it be from a linked post (Thank you Sheryl and Trixie) or Twitter. You have all left such supportive comments for me. And I truly hope you enjoy following along on my journey. Now that my thanks are you of the way, to the heart of the post we go...
I am in LOVE, now before anyone says anything, yes I am married. But I discovered a new love today. The Weight Watchers Mobile Tracker!!!!! I discovered it last night after signing up and I used it all day today. If you have a smart phone (Blackberry, iPhone, Droid, etc.), I highly recommend keeping this as a favorite or bookmarked site. It is easy to use, and if you are like me (new to Weight Watchers) and don't know point values yet, it's a life saver. Tracking on the go makes things so much easier. I have found that it truly makes me accountable. I mean there are times where you get busy an forget to track or just don't feel like tracking. But one thing I have come to realize, especially when I used to journal what I ate, you can omit something because you don't want to admit eating it. The only problem I had was that even though I left things out of the journal because I was too embarrassed to admit that I ate them, I couldn't lie to the SCALE.
The scale is Judge and Jury!!! It doesn't lie.
I tracked everything I ate today even that 1 Starburst candy I ate this morning. (I love my sweets) I am proud to say that I managed to stay within my points today, I went over yesterday (by quite a bit). And I managed to gain 2 activity points despite crappy weather.
I will post some pictures over the weekend of me at my current weight. I currently don't have any because I hate how I look in pictures.
And lastly, I'm sorry if this post seems a bit jumbled but I am tired. Been a very long day, just wanted to keep everyone up to date. Thank you again!
I honestly think that the mobile app played a HUGE part in my success. I have it with me at all times, so I can even make informed choices when I'm out at a restaurant.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you found it and are using it! Tracking is the key!
Hi Jenn,
ReplyDeleteTrixie is right that Tracking is the key. I have a 3 month tracker book and I carry it around with me everywhere. When I was a member before I would track for a day or so and then stop and I would not stay for the meetings but this time I have done things differently and I have done so much better. Who would have thought it? lol anyway, you are starting off great and I know that you will reach your goal. Have a great Sunday.
