If you hadn't noticed on my side bar, I have added a weight loss ticker. I figured if the facing up to other people about my finances worked in keeping me under control, maybe that would too. I also only weigh myself four times a year, when I get my birth control shot. I added the ticker before I went so that I could see what I had lost since three months ago. Good news is that I gained 0lbs. Bad news for me is that I loss nothing.
I will continue to lessen my portions and drink less pop.
I will try to watch what I am eating and the boys too. I don't want them dealing with weight issues when they are growing up. Neither is in risk, but I know that the older you get, the pressure you feel from peers looking at you and what they think about you is strong.
I look forward to updating my ticker in December, and I will not weigh myself before then.
