Per the last comment request to "update my blog"... yes, I shall indeed update my blog and write about the new "diet" plan I just started today!

I've started the weight watcher points eating plan, but I'm not attending any meetings and I'm not signing up online. If you need a diet plan that is maintained online by journal, food tracking and exercise routines, then go to sparkpeople.com. The site is awesome and free ;-)

I'm tracking my eating with the points plan, but also incorporating what is mentioned in the book You on a Diet by Dr. Oz. Which is getting enough fiber, limiting your menu choices for two meals everyday and getting at least 20 mins of exercise everyday. Then I also got for Christmas, My Fitness Coach for the Wii. I debated on getting this game or Jillian Michael's Fitness which I had originally wanted, but after reading some bad reviews opted against it. My Fitness Coach has so far been pretty actuate to what I've read about it, but after I play (exercise) it more I'll submit my own brilliant game review for all to see :-)

I also set some goals for myself. First, to just get through the first week. Then the second goal is to loose 15lbs by my son's birthday, which is February 12.

Wish me motivation. Wish me strength. Wish me encouragement!
