Weight Watchers – Week 1

This post may contain affiliate links. Read full disclosure.

by RAKI WRIGHT

Trying to lose weight or change your eating habits can be a hard task, especially if it requires drastic change.  I’m sharing my experience in my first week on the new Weight Watchers 360 program.

weight-watchers-week-1

According to Weight Watchers International, “Weight Watchers isn’t a diet; its a healthy way to live. Lose weight with weight loss plans developed by our experts and 45 years of experience.”

I was inspired to keep this weekly log from Bored Mommy.  I also plan to implement her idea for Shiny Gems.

My Stats:

Height:  5’6″
Size:  14
Health Condition:  Diabetic
First Goal: Lose 10 pounds

What I Learned in Week 1:

  • Order from the kid’s menu
  • Check options (sandwich vs. nuggets, dressing/condiment options)

Although I still made a lot of bad choices, I have at least learned where I go wrong and have made some plans to change them:

  • Eating at the table
  • Planning my meals
  • Eating breakfast
  • Eat a fruit or vegetable with each meal
  • Enjoying and savoring each meal
  • Learn how to make my favorites, in a healthier way, so I never feel deprived.

Things I did right:

  • Tracked everything I ate (good, bad, and worse).

Things I need to work on:

  • Eating regularly.  (I make bad choices when starving.)
  • Not planning ahead.

What did I lose:

Nothing. I actually gained 2.6 pounds. 🙁
But, I know why. I didn’t actually change any of my eating habits.

If you are on a journey to eat healthier, lose weight, or maintain a weight loss, how was your week? Especially, if you are doing Weight Watchers, I would love it if you would link up below so that we can high five and encourage each other!! The plan right now is that this will be a weekly post, every Thursday until I meet my goal.
