Weigh-In...

Okay, I started on Weight Watchers last week and weighed-in for my first time today. Down 5.8 pounds!! Yay...that makes me feel really good :) John also did very well with a 6.6 pound loss! We're both headed in the right direction.

As for the nutritionist I visited on Wednesday...that too went well. She basically said that with signing back up with Weight Watchers I was on my way to a healthy lifestyle again. She said that I wasn't on any dietary restrictions, but to basically eat in moderation. Boy, where have I heard that before? At my meetings. She also said that there are a lot of old wive's tales on the internet about certain foods triggering cancer and she said not to worry about that. She gave me examples of good foods vs. junk foods and to obviously make wise choices. She said to look for the nutritional value rather than just what the lower point foods were. In the past I would eat whatever as long as I was within my points range. Now I'm choosing healthy foods and staying within my points range. Although it's challenging that I hardly have any taste buds left, I'm being pickier with my choices.

Today is a very good day :) I'm still wired on my Decadron, but will be coming down soon. I hope to try and get in a little walk before I go in for a nap.

Peace to you all ♥ Love, Genie
