After having a very snack-y February, I made the decision this week to start tracking my food once more. It's been difficult getting returned to it, and I used to be starting to sense out of manage; so these days, I went to weigh in at Weight Watchers, even though I used to be positive I was over my WW intention weight. (I was borderline at the beginning of February, and despite the fact that I have never been weighing myself, I should sense that I might received).
It turned into so hard to swallow my pride and pass in there, but I'm glad I did. I'll write extra approximately that the following day, however I am Satisfied that the worst is over (the "worst" being weighing in, even though I knew my weight changed into up), and now I feel appropriate about going ahead. Due to the fact I used to be over my goal weight, I needed to pay the weekly price. I will ought to weigh in once a week, and maintain to pay each week till I am lower back beneath aim. I'm hoping so as to simplest take every week or two! but I suppose that having to pay will help me to stay on the right track and log my food once more.
