Change - AGAIN

When it comes to weight loss, having a support group is a HUGE help with staying on track and those days when you just feel like binging.

We have decided to stop doing Atkins and switch to Weight Watchers Online.

I realize we only did Atkins for less than a week (and yeah, I was loving the results so far!) BUT it was not a good meal plan to follow for my husband and his work schedule. The lack of carbohydrates and intense physical training he goes through with the Army lead to a very weak and almost disoriented husband. Yesterday he was very out of it. We felt that it was because he wasn't getting enough protein OR carbohydrates so we talked about different possible approaches and decided that Weight Watchers Online would be our next endeavor.

So last night we hoped online via our respective computers, enrolled, explored and even listed the foods we'd eaten that day.

Why Weight Watchers?

 I've done Weight Watchers before and it really works - IF you're honest and track every bite of food. I'm excited do be going through Weight Watchers online because of the portability. We already made sure that it is compatible with both of our phones - so when we're out to eat, or he's off to work, we can still tally our PlusPoints!! Woot!

Another benefit of Weight Watchers is that my husband will be able to record all his daily PT (physical training) and determine if he's eating enough to compensate for his workout and yet still lose healthy weight.

So I'm looking forward to this - just as I have been with everything else.

I was getting results with Atkins, but it is too complicated and tempting to fix a carb incorporated dish for my husband and a non-carb dish for myself and still be able to eat together. I will take what I've learned from Atkins and combine it with Weight Watchers.

Wish us luck!! I'm off to make Cheesy Breakfast Quesadilas :)
