Day 1

So I have been doing weight watchers for a little over a month and I fell of the wagon big time the last two weeks. But after this weekend I have talked myself into getting back on track. My motivation you ask? Sad to say it's a guy...well not just a guy, but the interest in trying to get the guy's attention. Or any guy's for that matter. I think I will feel better once I know that I am at a healthy weight and I know that others aren't looking at me thinking "she could stand to lose some weight."

So I embark today on Project "Turn Heads." I am going to devote myself to becoming healthier. With the hopes on my trip to Pittsburgh that I will "Turn Heads." This past weekend showed me that there are some decent guys out there...I just have to wait to find one. (Eventhough the guy I met this weekend was really great, I have no desires to try a long distance relationship...and I don't think I even had his attention for more than a minute.)

So far today I have eaten a healthy breakfast (yogurt, 15 grams of cereal and peaches) and I even went for a 30 minute walk at 6:00. I made some healthy Baked Tortilla Chips and it's only going on 10:00. Last night I planned out my evening meals for the rest of the month and I feel confident that I can stick to the plan. I work from 12-4 today so I think I'll do some form of exercise after work.

Here's to a new start and my first step towards the finish line!



-- I think I'm going to try and pick out a walking route to walk my way across Europe, visiting all the places I can only dream about right now. Hopefully I can make it by the end of the year --

~~ EDIT ~~
So I don't have to work today. Normally I'd be disappointed about not having the chance to make a few bucks but one of my Nutrition books arrived today. I've already started in on the daunting textbook and each page makes me look forward to the fall when I embark on my journey to becoming a Registered Dietician.

Maybe I'll post something new each day that I've learned and if anyone reads this maybe they'll learn something too!
