Yay FitBit!!!

My FitBit Zip bit the dust last week after less than six months of ownership. I bought it back in December and already needed a new battery in March. Kind of a huge strike in my book seeing as how the website said they should last six months on a battery. No biggie, stuff happens. Could have been a bad battery. Anyhoo...fast forward to this month (last Thursday to be exact) when I ended my day with 728 steps. Really? Hmmm...seems a little odd since I can get more steps than that sleep walking in the middle of the night!! So, I emailed the company and explained to them what happened. After troubleshooting a couple of things (including a new battery) they decided to mail me a new FitBit Zip. Guess what arrived today?! Yep, my new FitBit Zip!


Since I went a few days without adding up some points, I decided to jump on the treadmill and make up for some lost time. My daughters decided that it was too nice out to walk indoors so we took it to the street. It was nice walking with my two girls and our pooch. {The poor thing is out cold right now!} It was a great evening!!!


And finally, I stumbled upon this quote today and decided that I absolutely love it!! It just might become my new mantra!!! Have a WONDERFUL evening!!!

WW...still and again!

Here we go...again. I've tried WW (formerly known as Weight Watchers) over and over and over again. July 28, 2018 I committed to starting again and taking it seriously. By January 1, 2019, I was down 15 lbs. from July and 20 lbs. over all. I made it through the holidays but unfortunately, I didn't make it through the new year. My will came crashing down and the weight is slowly going back on. Well, I've decided to take to blogging again hoping to find my will and motivation and get back up again. Here I go!!!

Dusting this thing off and trying again!

I’m honestly not sure what the draw is to blogging for me. It definitely isn’t the “money” as I pretty much don’t have any followers (and if I do, I thank you!) and literally have ZERO sponsors but I think for me it is a form of journaling and that may be the draw. Last night as I was winding down from the day, I decided to give WW another try. I’d been paying for their services for awhile and when I “work the program” I have a lot of success. However, I’ve been avoiding the program for about an month and have had no success...go figure. My goal is to give WW one more month, follow it as best as I can, and reevaluate my situation then. I’m choosing to do the Purple Plan because I feel like that is the best one for me, at the moment. Right now I need more zero point options and this plan has the most. I preplanned breakfast and lunch, both zero points, which leaves me with 16 points for dinner. My goal is to only use 12 so that 4 will carry over giving me a little bumper for my upcoming...

Clean Slate!

I have a clean slate! Well, kind of. Yesterday I walked back through the doors of Weight Watchers and decided to ask for a clean slate. I missed the last three weekends and decided that yesterday was going to be a very sad day for me in terms of weighing in. So, I walked in, told the receptionist that I was "starting over" and that is what I did! She deleted my previous history from the computer and I'm acting like a new member. So...my new starting weight is 161.6 lbs. and I'm going forward from there. I can do this. I have a good feeling about this. It's all on my shoulders but I really need to lose some weight this summer and I'd love to see goal by September 5th. Technically, it's "only" 20.6 lbs. but back when I was about 5 lbs. from goal, I thought I had it. Apparently I did not. (Insert sad face here.) There are 15 weeks between now and September 5th. There is a holiday on Monday (cookout at home...I've got this!) and a holiday July 4t...
