  I AM Going to Do This

and I'm starting today. Nikilovestoeat has inspired me to get back on Weight Watchers. I won't be attending the meetings but I still have all the pamphlets and paraphernalia from six years ago and before I eat my breakfast (Yes, I realize it's almost lunch time.) I will figure out the points. I am also going to increase my exercise level. OK, let me tell the truth now. I need to START exercising.

Now it's after lunchtime. Lots of interruptions today. First DD#1 called wanting help with her assignment. So I sat on the phone saying, "Uh huh, uh huh." while she figured out what to do. She usually just needs someone to bounce her ideas off of. Then DD#2 called to borrow our pet carrier and we were off talking about sick kitties and goodness knows what else. Then DD#1 came to the door to tell me I have all of this week off from babysitting The Four Year Old and we started a discussion about dentists. What else have I done today? Nothing. I still have knitting to do. It's my laundry day and the cat won't get off the bed. I wonder if I could whip the sheets out from under her like the tablecloth trick. I better go now. I'm starting to not make any sense.

However you do it, just DO IT! I'm thrilled to hear you're back on the wagon. Let me know if you need a big virtual hug or a swift virtual kick in the rear, darlin! I am here for you!!!

Thanks, Niki. I expect I'll need more kicking than hugging.

My cat leaves in total indignation when I pull the covers off the bed. I am trying to lose a bit before Christmas. It is very hard.

Weight Watchers is so much easier than the South Beach Diet.

I've tried that trick with the cat, and he rolls with it so it doesn't work.

If you lift on one side you can roll kitty right off the bed.

Excellent advice.

Should never skip meals.This is the mistake that most
people make.Eat a lot of fruit and vegetables.
Lean meat and plenty of fish.No skipping meals.

I was told by a doctor once that skipping meals and not eating only makes our bodies store more fat, but if we eat three meals a day, then we can lose weight.

What an image of you pulling the sheet from beneath the cat! It sounds like you have been getting some exercise-

She's pretty grumpy when woken up and I'm not her favourite person. Maybe I'll do the sheets tomorrow.

Exercise and diet. Skipping meals is not part of the diet plan young lady

Good luck.

I slept in. I can eat breakfast for lunch, lunch for snack and dinner can be at the usual time.
