Weight Watchers update, SXSW, and a berry and fruit salad recipe
Posted Mar 13 2009 12:00am
Well, it took five weeks, but I finally lost my first five pounds at Weight Watchers. (Actually I’m down six pounds.) I think the weight is coming off slower on the scale this time around because I’m exercising. In fact, I’ve also gone down a clothing size. (When I’ve done Weight Watchers in the past I never exercised. Now I’m doing at least 35 minutes, 2 POINTS worth, of exercise per day, six days a week.)
Challenges
My next challenge is my daughter’s birthday dinner tonight, since we’re going to a ‘50s diner type place that is not very diet friendly. Then it’s Chuck E Cheese tomorrow, followed by a few days at SXSW Interactive in Austin. (Hello, Texas-style barbeque!)
By the way, I’m speaking on the Dad is the New Mom panel, Room 18BCD, on Monday, March 16th from 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm. Come by and say hi! Since I’ll be gone, I may be away from my blog for awhile. But I’ll be very active on Twitter, so sign up for my feed.
