Getting Back on the Wagon

I’ve been following Weight Watchers for almost three weeks now and doing pretty well.  But, yesterday, I really fell off the wagon.  I tracked my points, which included two pieces of See’s Candy and two glasses of wine and 8 pretzels even though I knew I was over the points already.  But, I went way over, eating into the weekly stash.  And, got a little indigestion as well, something I haven’t had since I started the program.  So, I’m aware of that and today will be pulling back.  I also need to drink more water today.

I am also starting to feel personal pressure to start exercising again.   Just can’t seem to find the time.  And, I’m not even ready to commit to a walk or bike ride today.  I’m trying to finish some work for a client so I can start my research next week without any worry.  Maybe I could at least think about a short yoga session.  I had been doing it pretty religiously until I hurt my back but my back hasn’t hurt for more than a month.  I get a few dog walks but they are short and very leisurely.

Trying to lose weight has always been a struggle for me.  I’m just generally pretty happy with myself and once I figured out that I wasn’t going to be a super model, working hard to be thin didn’t seem worth it.  But, now I’m working hard not to be thin but to be healthy and that’s the final goal.
