New Goal -- Losing Weight on Weight Watchers.

Keeping goals is difficult when your head feels like tapioca, worrying about everything and having your brain scatter to 48 different things.   When I sit down to write, I often think of everything else I have to do.    Earlier this week, Karen said that she wanted me to join Weight Watchers online so we could both lose weight.   In the past, I would have said, "I'll do it on my own, I don't need to do that."    But for some reason, I said the exact opposite.   

So now we're both doing Weight Watchers, with me tracking it online.   It's amazing how quickly my brain got into the mindset of doing it, and honestly, looking forward to doing something for myself and reducing the weight. 

So far I can't even eat all of the points that are assigned to me.   59 points for my fat body is still too many.   Even with just a few days in, I feel like I'm healthier.   I don't feel as sluggish, even with limited sleep, and I think I can even see a bit of reduction in my gut, although I'm probably imagining that.  

Of course, I'm going to cry a bit if I get on the scale and it's more than last Tuesday.  

My goal right now is 5% of my weight.   Not huge, but once I reach that, I'm going to head for 20%, and hopefully down to my personal desire of 33% of my weight lost and maybe beyond.
