Diet or Live?
I have been losing weight learning new eating habbits with weight watchers. Everytime I had a baby and I gained weight from pregnancy I went to weight watchers.
I promote weight watchers because you don't have to give everything up and it's not hard to do and eliminates the stress of calorie counting.
Calorie Counting is great, but it's stressful and is easy to get off track on.
With weight watchers you count points and it's so easy.
Each food has it's own point value, and according to your age, height and weight you are allowed up to a certian amount of points per day, plus you learn that for every activity and exercise you do, that earns you more points so you can eat more. It's not just for losing weight, it's for losing weight and keeping it off. You use points to help you maintane your weight loss goals for a life time. It's that great??
It's simple really and alot less stressful and what's really cool is there are alot of products out there that have the weight watchers points listed on them, like lean cuisine, Weight watchers smart ones, and healthy choice. :)
I love to eat, but I hate counting carbs, fats, protiens and calories.... With the point system, it works for you, not against you. You learn with foods are freebies, low points and high points and you naturally want to stay away from the higher point foods except for treats and such.
You don't deprive yourself of what you like and want, you learn moderation and how much a little bit of the wrong food can cause you to gain weight.
It's a healthy way to lose weight and keep it off! It is really the only program I promote and agree with because it teaches healthy balanced eating that sticks for a life time and you do lose weight doing it!
www.weightwatchers.com go there and check out a meeting in your area for free. Give it a shot, you'll be happy you did, especially when you see how easy it is.

Why I am here
Moi, Rachel, on my pathway to a healthier more physically fit me! I am 5'0" Short and I began my journey at 162.6 Lbs. I am currently 149.4 lbs. and my Goal weight is to get down to 115 lbs. This blog is my area to talk about what I am doing, my success and hopefully inspire everyone else as well, by sharing with you my discoveries on what is actually WORKING, and not using Scam Diets and "magic" pills! I am 30 years old and the mother to three beautiful children. My baby is now 2 years old and I still looked pregnant. I had to do something! I got so sick and tired of everyone making comments on how slender I used to be and slipping up and accidentally calling me fat in a round about way. So here I am. Working my butt off, one pound at a time, and trying to Jam it all away and having fun doing it. I hope you'll be a frequent reader and jump in and share your thoughts and inspirations!

Rachel's Ten Goalden Rules
1. One Day at a time. Today is ALL that matters!
2. Never deprive yourself of your favorite treats. Work for it!
3. Set managable short term goals. Succeed in them and set another!
4. Do NOT weigh everyday, despite how tempting it maybe!
5. Do not kick yourself in the butt if you cheat, try again!
6. If you don't like the exercise, Don't do it! Find something more fun and mix it up!
7. As much as you don't want to see it, take pictures once a month to chart progress!
8. Drink Lots of WATER! Not diet sodas or energy drinks. They are full of sodium and water is the universal lubricant.
9. Eat!! Eat healthy and eat well, but in moderation. Never just stop eating, you'll force your body into starvation mode and you'll GAIN weight!
10. Repeat everyday, "I think,therefore I am, If I believe, I WILL achieve!"
I enjoy Turbo Jam, Tae Bo, Crunchless Abs, Sweatin' To the Oldies, Denise Austin, Yoga, Abs of Steel, Belly Dancing, Latin Dance Heat and Weight Watchers!
