Still Alive…and Weight Watchers

Shhhhh….wait…what’s that sound?  Why, that is the miraculous sound of blissful silence, since my cough has finally slowed down enough for me to hesitantly re-join the land of the living!  I can mostly breathe again too.  Three weeks of a wracking cough and stuffy nose have been more than enough joy for me, so I will gladly see this crud slowly ease its way out of my poor body.

After a round of antibiotics and a grisly, harrowing experience offering up my vein for the blood draw, hopefully my doctor and I will figure out just why in the hell it takes so long for my body to fight off the slightest illness.  My fiance jokes that if he gets a cold, I will catch Ebola from him. That is not even much of an exaggeration!

So now that I can breathe and am not falling over delirious from coughing, you might think that I have a sweaty, heart-thumping workout planned for this evening.  Well, you would think wrong! Priorities, people.  I have a good inch and a half of root showing in my hair, and I have an appointment after work to get those touched up.  And I think we all know that right after strolling out of a salon and having my hair washed, fussed with, brushed, dried, and styled, I will NOT be hitting the gym to mess it all up.

Being sick really threw me for a loop.  I skipped weigh-in last week because I couldn’t face it, and I have not been doing very well with eating this week either.  So Saturday’s weigh-in will be another gain, and I fear a rather large one.

We are nearing the end of September, and creeping closer to the end of this year.  It got me thinking: clearly I need something else, something new, something different to get back on track and stay there. Doing it on my own, even with a blog and a site like MyFitnessPal, just isn’t cutting it for me.  I am considering trying a few months of Weight Watchers to see if that helps me get better results.  Hell, any results right now would be an improvement!

Any opinions or feedback on Weight Watchers?

This sums up how I feel right now!
