Weight Watchers

Weight Watchers

The plan was to start on January 4^th.  My oldest daughter (DD1) and I planned this weeks ago after a heart to heart on the drive home from therapy.  So why haven’t we started yet? Prepare for a rant y’all.

The moment Rosie caught wind of our weight loss plan she wanted to join.  This is great except that I had budgeted for 1 membership, not 2.  That’s fine we can’t join until the end of the month, but it doesn’t mean we can start eating healthier.  We have been on WW before so we have a general idea of how many points we can eat, and we can use DD1’s points calculator when she signs up.

So last week, I told Rosie and DD1 to please come up with dinner, lunch and snack ideas so I can make a grocery list. I know what I like to eat but I have no idea what they would prefer.  This is what I got back

-          Salad with stuff in it

-          Flat wraps and hummus

-          Seafood

-          Do I remember those snacks bags we eat last time that were really good….remember!!  The ones with all the stuff in it.

-          At 7 am this morning, before caffeine or a cigarette, I was wresting shoes on one of my 4 year olds and trying to get my 6 year old to stop screaming bloody murder when DD1 shoved a video in my face about making omelets in a cup with 3 ingredients and a microwave.  Well she called in an omelet but it looked more like a cake, I am not quite sure.

I know what they want me to do.  They want me to plan all the meals myself and then tell them what they can and cannot eat.  They want me to diet for them and I am not having it this time around. I sent a text to each of them stating I need an adequate list of snack and lunch items they want as well as some dinner ideas or I am shopping for myself only.  This should be fun!
