Back To Weight Watchers

I've done the Weight Watchers thing a couple of times now.....and after awhile, just went back to not tracking my food.  Of course, the weight would creep on and finally I reached my all time high a few weeks ago.  Granted, I am still not considered overweight by the standards of BMI but I am only a few pounds away.  And my midsection is looking very muffin-top like.  It's not pretty.

So - I made the decision to go back to Weight Watchers (online) and begin moving my body again.  I have the short term goal of losing 10 lbs. by March 27, the day our plane departs for Hawaii to celebrate my 40th birthday.  So far, I've lost 4 lbs. so I am almost halfway there!  My long term goal is to lose about 20 lbs. total.  However I'd be pretty darned happy at the 15 lb. mark so we shall see.

I made this yummy breakfast - Chicken Egg White Cups.  Only 1+ point for two!  I ate three and it ended up being 2+ points and was well worth it.  I made a blueberry smoothie alongside (3+ points) and had a very satisfying meal and got in my fruit for the day!  That's my green tea too :).  Love my Green Tea Kombucha from Yogi tea!

Here's the recipe I slightly tweaked by just using lean chicken deli meat.  I think a lean ham would be terrific too!  The thing I loved the most - these are portable and just like an egg muffin that can be taken with me.

I hope to continue posting more tasty, healthy recipes along with some of my workout regimen.  So far I've been walking a lot, jogging some and doing some of my favorite kickboxing DVDs.  Let's see if I can continue this weight loss so I can wear my bathing suit with pride in just 10.5 weeks!
