Back on the wagon...

I'm a lifetime member at Weight Watchers...and proud of it! Betsy is 5 weeks old, and I wanted to start the weight loss journey early, and especially going into the Christmas season. I gave myself a freebie through Thanksgiving, but now it's time to get serious. I never fully lost all the weight I wanted after Lily, I just didn't buckle down. But this time is gonna be different! I'm gonna be honest, I have roughly 25 lbs. to lose to get to my goal weight. Today was my first day back, and since I'm a lifetimer, which means I've done the program before (about 4 years ago I lost 25 lbs.) and I just had a baby, they give me 12 weeks free to get back to goal weight. I think I can do it. I'm being very public about this because I feel like it makes me more accountable. I'll post periodic updates of how much I've lost. I'm hoping I can do it in my 3 month free time frame! If you want to do it with me, I'd be more than happy to go to the meetings with you! Let me know!! The journey begins...!!!

Jamie, you're amazing because my little Lily is almost nine months old and I still have to lose like 12 more pounds to be back to pre-prego weight. You can do it!! I'll be so jealous of your hot rod bod in three months sista!!

I wish i was local and i would do it with ya i have about 35 pounds to lose as of when i left the hospital i'm hoping that shrinks some on its own!

Oh my gosh.....25lbs sounds great. I am starting Weight Watchers on Monday ironically, I cant do the pills again. I am having my IUD taken out next week because since I have had it I have gained mad weight and it has made my skin weird. I hope weight watchers works as well for me as it does for you.
