Quitting Food!

It's been almost a full year since I quit smoking.  I don't want to say it was easy, but it wasn't as hard as I though it would be.  I mean I've quit before, I didn't smoke while pregnant or nursing any of my children, but I quit for them and not me, this time I quit for me and I feel great.

Quitting smoking was only one step of my goal of becoming a healthier me.  The other goals were to lose weight and get in regular exercise.  Well I'm failing on these both!!

I mean it should be easy right?  who doesn't want to go to the gym after a long day at work instead of collapsing on the sofa and vegging out while watching Grey's Anatomy?

I started off great, Aug 1st I joined weight watchers, my weight loss program of choice, between Aug and Oct I lost 24 pounds, Then the holidays hit and the new year.  I had to redo the 2014 budget and I just didn't have the funds to support my monthly weight watchers fee.  I weighed myself this morning and I have gained 19 of those pounds back.  I am working on the plan on my own, but I'm just not motivated right now.

I think quitting smoking was easier then losing weight because I can avoid cigarettes but I can't avoid food.
