Coming clean

Danny and I started Weight Watchers in September and quit going right after they rolled out the new program in November.  I was up and down the same 7 pounds the whole time.  It's not WW fault, it's my own damn fault, I will freely admit to that!  I know the program works, but fasting for 2 days before weighing in and eating whatever the hell I want the other 5 days of the week isn't going to work.  I'm frustrated at my lack of any kind of willpower and this insane love affair with food that I have.  It's sick and twisted!   I am worried sick about my husband who is diabetic, has high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and is obese.  The doctor just increased the doses on his meds and added some new meds.  Shouldn't that be enough of a kick in the ass to get us moving??  At this rate I fear I will be a widow by the time I'm in my 50's, if that long.  Our mindset has to change, not that we do something as a quick fix, but something that we can maintain and live with. 
In an effort to get back on the wagon I have joined Molly's challenge (Molly Marie Get's Healthy) called Project 52.  Taking a walk once a week and snapping a photo while out on the walk.  I think I will give this a try as a way to ease back into a healthier lifestyle and hopefully we can keep rolling out more and more changes every week to add to our lives for the better.
