I had to step on the scale and see that I’d gained over 7 pounds before waking up and realizing I had to stop this crazy eating or else.  Yes, a 7-pound gain.  And it’s not even Christmas yet!  School and having family over must have done it to me.  Even though I realized I was feeding myself a little too much, I didn’t quite have the willpower to stop because there was always tomorrow.  Gotta love that.  And while most people would just wait ’til after the holidays to start their weight loss goals, I decided to be different.  Yes, oh yes, I am faithfully back on my Weight Watchers program which I realize I’ve missed because the whole year of 2009, I didn’t lose a single pound.  Nope, not even an ounce.  For some reason, I somehow had myself believe I deserved to lay off the “dieting” because I’d done so well in 2008.  Slacker!  But enough is enough.  All that is the past and I want to welcome the new year already stronger and ready to face my blubber head on.  I plan to let go of at least 4 pounds before the new year so help me God.

And no, I will not accomplish this by starving myself or taking an appetite suppressant.  It excites me that if I can at least lose the amount I lost in 2008, I’ll finally, finally, finally, finally (finally!!!!!!) be at my pre-pregnancy weight.  Gaad, it’s been what.. almost 5 years since giving birth and I’m still trying to achieve my pre-pregnancy weight.

Yep, it’s time to get jiggy with it.
