Okay, I’m sorry, but I had to say it! I am not sure when it happened, I know it wasn’t overnight, but I gained weight and it wasn’t until I saw recent photos of myself that I had to take a good look in the mirror and realize that it was time to take this matter seriously. I am SO HAPPY that I was selected to be a Nutrisystem Nation Blogger and that I could share my journey to lose weight with all of you!
I have to say, I am lucky to have a very loving and supportive husband that thinks that I am beautiful regardless of my weight, but I sure wish he would have said something or put an exercise program into place before it got out of hand! Is it okay to blame him for my weight gain? Why not right? After all, it is HIM that has a “snack down” from 7pm until he goes to bed and is about as physically fit as they get right? Plus, when I am up blogging late at night HE is the one that brought me up a plate of food that he had lovingly cooked since I skipped breakfast and lunch because I was so busy with work. Yeah.. I am thinking that it is his fault right? Where is he? I think he needs a good scolding! Haha.
Obviously it isn’t my husbands fault that I put on weight or anyone else’s fault, it is my own. I knew that I was gaining weight, I would take action for a short period of time and then drop back into my old habits of not eating breakfast or lunch and waiting until I was starving before finally deciding what I wanted to eat. This is always a recipe for weight gain and I know this logically, but somehow we tell ourselves that we “aren’t even eating very much and still put on weight”. Have you ever said those words? I know I have a million times.
One thing that I have found with Nutrisystem is that I don’t have to THINK about it at all, I have a log that I jot down whichever item I selected to eat out of the list of items for that time of day and go about my business. I don’t have to count calories, I don’t have to think about the combination of items, they take the guess work out of it and have everything properly balanced. Honestly, the food is REALLY GOOD too. I was surprised about that the most. I thought that I would dread eating the food that they sent, but their morning shakes and entree’s are good and their deserts are ridiculously amazing. I am not a sweets eater generally, but I have to admit that I don’t skip out of my deserts since they are on my list as okay to eat!! There has only been one or two items that I didn’t care for in their breakfast choices, but those can be easily substituted for something in their breakfast line that I do like.
I am HAPPY to tell you that since July 8th I have lost a total of 7.6 lbs! YES! Really! SEVEN POINT SIX GLORIOUS POUNDS have miraculously LEFT the number on my scale! I am beyond excited about it since it has been super easy and I am ABSOLUTELY NOT HUNGRY! As a matter of fact, I honestly have to make myself eat half of the time because I am never hungry. Another one of our coupon friends Brandy shared with me that she just started Nutrisystem as well and she has lost 8 lbs in the same time frame! YAY Brandy!!
I am excited that Nutrisystem has given me the opportunity to try their program and report my progress to you. Over the next 4 months, each week I will bring you an update on my journey and give you the good, the bad and the exciting! So please check in to see how I am doing each week, if you are on a weight loss journey too, I would love to share notes and encourage each other!
So that is my update on my weight loss journey. I will be posting every week on how I am doing. I can not wait to share my progress with all of you and look forward to hearing about your weight loss progress as well. Jump on board and lets do this!
