Today is the end of my second week on Weight Watchers. The online tools are just great, especially the Plan Manager that tracks food eaten and activity. It has a huge database of foods, including prepared dishes, so even items that I don't prepare can be more easily tracked than in the old days when I had to rely on a small pamphlet of points values.
The thing that makes me feel best, though, is that I finally hooked up my Wii yesterday and used it yesterday and today for exercising. A looooooong time ago, I unhooked it to lend to a friend and never set it back up when she returned it. I originally got the Wii thinking that Skip and I could use it together, but she doesn't have enough functioning in her hands to easily operate the controls, so that was pretty much of a bust. So, I bought the balance board to use it for exercising, and that's what I'm using now. For me, I particularly like the aerobic and balancing exercises. My balance is poor, I believe as a result of my Meuniere's disease (an inner ear problem that occasionally causes vertigo), so it's good to have tools that can specifically work on its improvement.
All in all, I feel better both physically and mentally. My energy is good. My spirits are very good. Being more thoughtful and deliberate about what I'm eating is giving me a boost. I am very happy about starting up Weight Watchers again.

A little positive action helps encourage one to do more positive things. Got any plans for your little vacation?
Sounds good Cranky! I dunno what happened to my new years resolutions. :)
That sounds like a pretty good report for two weeks in. Cranky. Keep up the good work!!
lightning - my main plans for the vacation are: 1) visit Skip each day, 2) take furniture and other goods for sale to my various booths at multi-dealer shops, 3) list items on eBay and 4) enjoy the peace and quiet.
VJ and Webster - thanks for your encouragement.
