My once 5' 7 3/4" frame has shrunk. At the same time, my fondness for chocolate chip cookies and lots of BBQ's and graduation parties, packed on an additional 12 pounds.
It doesn't take a genius to figure out these two events worked against each other. While my weight is ideal for a statuesque woman, it doesn't work for someone stretching for 5' 6".
So, after much weeping and teeth-gnashing, I've cut back on my junk food consumption. A friend, who's a lifetime member of Weight Watchers, gave me some tips on what foods to eat. I've also used my Swagbucks Search Engine to find websites on resurrecting metabolism.
The good news: I've lost three pounds. The bad news: It took three weeks, and I still have 15 pounds to reach my goal.
NEWSFLASH: Since writing this post, I've lost an additional five pounds. Yay!
I'll be sharing my progress in future posts of what works and what doesn't work. Do you have any weight loss tips?
