So much for losing those extra three pounds by limiting my food intake. I went up another pound instead!
I've always said I was made backwards and now I have proof!
I don't want to do it, but the only way I know to lose weight, the only way that's ever worked for me with lasting results is the Weight Watchers' At Home plan. So today, Monday, starts my Point Counting again.
I don't , I don't, I don't want those four pounds to be only the beginning of gaining back those 22 pounds I lost eight or nine years ago.
I've gained back a few before and lost them by just cutting back and walking more. I've had only one time before that I gained a few pounds and couldn't get rid of them no matter what I did and so I finally did it only by counting Points again. Well, this will now make two. So, starting today a-counting I will go.
Here's my plan:
Breakfast: Since I like routine (and oats) I plan to have a bowl of old-fashioned oatmeal every morning with peanut butter, honey, chopped dates, and milk. Never tried it? You need to. It's like a (legal) dessert.
Lunch will be a warmed-up, home-cooked meal left over from supper of the night before.
Supper will be Vegetable Soup made from the recipe in my Weight Watchers' Getting Started book. It's really good and hey, it's ZEEEE-RO points!
While losing, Weight Watcher's recommends three servings of milk products a day for teenagers and those over 50. I'll let you guess which one I am. They also recommend six glasses of water (no problem), and two teaspoons of good oils (also not a problem).
Can I do it?We shall see. Why yes I can! Sure I can!
So, by the time Fall gets here I'll be able to slide right back into my cool weather clothes without missing a beat.

I'm especially looking forward to wearing my favorite brown corduroy skirt again.
