WW @ Work

Deep breath. I know that I am more than those three numbers on the scale but goodness gracious. I was slowly creeping up to my alltime high.

But that is over...I am now on a path towards a healthier and fitter me.

I decided to go with the flex plan - the one where you count the points for EVERYTHING that goes in your mouth. I really need to be more aware of what I am eating as I have been on autopilot for so long with food. Last night, I was able to identify when I was eating just because I was stressing about something and when I was eating because I was hungry. I was also more aware of my hunger. Quelle suprise to find out that I don't have to eat the whole can of gumbo to fill satisfied.

The group is really cool and very supportive.

Now it's about working in the exercise. Now that I have a permanent apartment , I can start looking around for a gym or workout place. There's kickboxing not too far from me. That would definitely be a jump start to my routine. :)

I've already found a capoeira class, I just need to bring the fitness up to speed so I can start taking it. I need to find out when the spring season of soccer starts.

Congratulations on the apartment, and on distinguishing between hungry hunger and emotional hunger!

I totally missed that you got an apartment! Congrats! It sounds pretty sweet :D

And good on you for going to the meeting. Glad to hear your group is cool :)

Hopefully you get into exercising soon (same with me :D).

Stay good!
