Its always so hard to start dieting after a long absence from it. Its easy to eat whatever and wherever you want, but after time, you come to realize that you must chose between squeezing into your pants everyday or reducing the amount and type of food that you consume. Honestly it always feels so much better to slip into your clothes easier, but at the time when you are staring at a carton of icecream- you forget that feeling and just want to eat a whole bowl and pretend that it will not affect your waistline.
So here I am back in the saddle. My first experience with true weightloss was in 2005, when I lost 22 pounds with weight watchers. Before WW I had done the atkins diet, slimfast and the strange heart surgery diet (where you eat bacon and drink grapefruit juice). None of these diets had lasting effects, until I tried Weight Watchers. I lost weight and learned how to eat better. After my weightloss I kept my weight off (through working out and watching what I ate)until I got pregnant. I was blessed to have a great pregnancy, but I gained way more weight than I should have. Flashforward to now- I have a beautiful baby and 35 extra pounds! So now I am back in the saddle. Ready to fight the battle of the bulge and hopefully win!
