Trying again...

So I'm baaaacccckkk! Not that anyone was reading so no one can miss me!  But this is my goal... to lose 50 pounds and keep them off.  I'm pretty sure that I have lost 50 pounds, but never consecutively and never keeping them off.

This time around, I am following the "Simply Filling" plan by Weight Watchers.  Basically, eat the healthy foods and don't track your points.  I still get 49 points a week plus my exercise points.

So today, I'm doing pretty well - we won't talk about the weekend...

Dinner will be brown rice and chicken/peach/pineapple/mango crockpot creation.  More to come on that - hopefully it tastes yummy!

Here is a pretty unflattering picture of me... but it serves me well to have an ugly before picture, right?

I'm down 5 lbs in the first two weeks. I want to be down an additional 10 by our vacation to Michigan next month!
