Yes, I am starting Weight Watchers . .. .again .. .

I am finally admitting that I need accountability to lose pounds and maintain my goal weight.  Way back, I went to Weight Watchers and lost a ton o' fat from having babies and then I started the yo-yo. Last year I took off significant weight just by working out and eating healthy. Winter came and so came back the weight. Life is rough.

Now, it is time to get life under control AGAIN. We can do this, people! Yes, we can!

And, as life would have it, I was surfing the web tonight and saw the most decadent apples desserts EVAH.

Jen over at Balancing Beauty and Bedlam created her Melt in Your Mouth Coffee Cake for Tasty Tuesday and Melissa at Girlymama has a French Toast Apple Bake that looks to die for.

Praise the Lord you can't gain weight just looking. Someday, when I have reached my goal weight, I am so trying these recipes! You heard it here.

BUT, for now, it is time to get out the tracking sheets and hold myself accountable to EVERY bite. You bite it, you write it, or so I've been told. Everyone tells me it works. I know from experience it works. I just have to get to it and do it! Time to feel better about myself and how I look in a summer bathing suit!!

(Letting you in on a secret now: I ate a huge chocolate donut before weighing in on Monday night for the first time. It tasted so good but I want to be a lifetime member so now I have to get serious. No more cream-filled chocolate donuts for awhile.)

What goals are you trying to achieve? Do you have an accountability structure in place helping you? (Finances, weight, etc.?)

(Oohhh, on another note, - I just checked and my second article just posted on Parenting Squad! Yeah!! "What in the World do I do on Earth Day?" Please stop over and say "HI!")

I will tell you what I tell everyone I know that does WW - 2 packs of smarties are 0 points. Carry them in your purse!!!

Best of luck with WW. I hope things go well for you. You can do it.
I am sticking to following the south beach diet guidelines and exercising, but joined the sisterhood of the shrinking jeans for the accountability and encouragement.
