I know that I have not posted in quite a while, but I am back!

A few months back I switched to day shift and I am beyond glad that I did. I have been able to stop all of my medications, but decided to go ahead and keep taking the B-12 shots. I am also getting a full nights sleep which was not possible on swing shift. I cannot even begin to explain how much better I feel!

Even though I am not on meds anymore, my weight has returned. Bit of a down side, but I am starting a new battle against it. I weighed in at 240.6 lbs on July 12th which is very depressing since I was down to 203 a few months back. July 12th is also the mark of my new beginning! I joined Weight Watchers and so far, I like what I am seeing!

The tools on the site are amazing and I think they are going to help me much more than just keeping my food diary like I was before. I am the type of person who has to constantly track and see progress and I think this is just what I needed! It was only $55 to get signed up for 3 months so I figured it would not hurt to give it a try and if at the end of the 3 months I have no progress I can at least cancel my plan.

Within the next few days I will be posting my start photo, measurements, my progress through this first week and what I have done to prepare for this new chapter in dieting! I will also share the recipes that I will be preparing and all that kind of fun stuff!

This whole blog is going to have some new additions added as well to go along with another new step that I am getting ready to take. It is one that I am hoping will allow me to come to terms with my body’s present state and allow me to have a positive self image again. Details soon!!!!
