Dieting Advice From My Kids

Since starting Weight Watchers, my boys have been very supportive. They have even offered me some valuable advice, and encouragement.

Justice: Mom, your belly is only a little bit big. You only look a little pregnant, it’s because you’re on a diet, right? (Note, I am NOT pregnant. However, I am happy I only look a little pregnant opposed to very pregnant.)

Journey: You should eat only fruits and vegetables, go to work, take us to the park, then come home and eat fruits and vegetables. Then you will lose weight, because that has 0 cavities (cavities, not calories) in it.

Today is Weigh In Wednesday. After taking into consideration the wonderful (and somewhat insulting) advice I received, working out, and eating healthy….. I FULLY expect to be at LEAST 2 pounds lighter. If not, I will not be a very happy momma. TO THE SCALE!

Boy do I know what you are talking about! My daughter has a great way of slapping & pinching my belly that isn't the most supportive reminder that I'm out of shape. Bless their little hearts! They're trying hard to encourage you. Keep up the great posts....

My kids LOVE playing with my belly! It's sort of embarrassing but at least it keeps them entertained for awhile. I LOVE weight watchers. I've been on the program (for the third time) for a little over a year now and I've lost 55 lbs (yeah!). For great tips/tricks etc. make sure to sign up for the hungry girl newsletter AND if you are into brownies...try NO Pudge! I could go on and on...but mainly I love weight watchers because it is not a diet...it's a life style change :)

Good luck!
