I'm 75% through Day 5 on Weight Watchers and I've definitely noticed a boost in my energy. I always feel so much better both physically and mentally when I'm eating right and exercising - you would think that would be enough to keep on the straight and narrow always!

This weekend is my fiance's dad's birthday. We're planning a low-key lunch tomorrow at their house, with a party fajita pack from a local Mexican place and a half-lemon, half-chocolate dobasch cake. Luckily, I'm not a fan of dobasch cake, so no temptation there. I'm planning to have one chicken fajita
with a small serving of Mexican rice and alot of the bellpeppers and onions. I figure as long as I skip the sour cream and cheese, I can enjoy lunch and still eat reasonably well.

Keeping this blog has been a big help during my first week. I also journal all of my meals through WW.com, but actually writing down my thoughts and planning my days here makes it easier to stay on track.

Tonight I am going to find a cute dress for my younger sister's bridal shower next weekend. I'm the hostess, so it's been crazy trying to plan it, coordinate with the other hostesses and also trying to take some time for me to eat right and work out. I found a very cute dress at Walmart.com (!) for $13.77!! I know Wally World isn't haute couture, but it's quick and easy and I'd rather not drop a fortune on an outfit that hopefully won't fit me in a couple months!

Have a great, healthy weekend, everyone!
