Diet!  Again? Yes!!!!

Here I go again, starting another diet.  I am counting calories on Spark People.  I have never counted calories before.  I was on Weight Watchers (Lifetime membership- lol ing) and counted points. 

Spark People is a free site and has some cool apps.  I decided to give it a try before enrolling in Weight Watchers online.   I am thinking, in the back of my little mind, that I will only do well on a diet if I have to pay something for it.   I have so many of the WW plans for the 80's, 90's, etc., but have not stuck with it at home. 

Tracking your food daily takes some time.  Once I have my food choices set up, I hope it will go a little faster.  I measured and weighed myself.  Whew! 

I am just going to take it a day at a time and try to stick with it for a month.  I bought a dress for a wedding in a month.  It looks alright, but would look better on me if my middle was a little bit smaller!  Of course, the truth comes out!   I have an event to attend.  At least, it's a start. 

I, also, need to get back in the habit of a work out.  I was sick for 6 weeks and stopped working out and I have a few other excuses if you would like to hear them.  Even tho I am semi-retired, I seem to keep busy.  Most days I work 1/2 day and afternoons are free to clean, do laundry, nap, read or work in our Aunt's old house to get it ready for a sale. 

Well, today has gone well for the eating portion.  I don't seem to be too hungry.  I will keep you posted!
