I have been on and off this weight loss thing for a while now and I thought that Weight Watchers might actually be the answer. It did some amazing things and I was able to get a little healthier but after restructuring our family budget, Weight Watchers had to be cut. I know I can do this on my own with some help and support from my friends and family so I thought I would continue to share my experiences online.
(three months later)
I did pretty well on my own losing almost 10 lbs but after making this a priority – I knew I needed to get back on Weight Watchers and continue going to the meetings. My goal is Lifetime so we’ll see what happens!
Wedding Portrait, August 25 2007!
Not gonna lie, I looked & felt great on my wedding day but after that and the honeymoon, it was all down hill. I started eating what my husband ate (including the same portions) and now I find myself with an extra 20 lbs spread out all over my arms, tummy, booty and especially the thighs.

This picture was taken right before the honeymoon (we took it in December) and things were working out as far as my weight was concerned – if anything, I had lost a little bit more since the wedding. I wish I had kept it up…

What got me into the jam in the first place...
Yep, this is a classy photo. Shoving a GIANT turkey leg into my mouth at the state fair. ugh. never again.
highest weight ever - 163lbs
And this is the photo that took me over the edge and made me re-commit to Weight Watchers. When I saw this, I realized that I was mainly wearing that sweater to hide myself and be as comfortable as possible which is pretty awful not to mention my 5 chins. I am totally embarrassed by this but I am 12lbs lighter now and still going strong. I will NEVER take another photo like this nor will I ever be 163.
