Ok, so I need to lose weight.  I have acid reflux and arthritis in my ankles. The doctors keep telling me it's only going to get worse if I don't lose some weight. Not to mention that my migraines are much more in control when I watch what eat. So when they started up a Weight Watchers at Work I decided to jump in. I've tried just about everything else. I lost about 80lb once through mostly execersize but then life changed and I wasn't working out like I used to and it all came back and brought some friends too.

I've been doing the weight watchers for two weeks and have lost 5 pounds. I'm surprised at how easy it is to follow the program. After we move into the house I want to get an elliptical or something (any recommendations?) to work out at home too. Maybe I'll get some work out videos too.

My goal is to lose ~95 pounds. My BMI starting out was 43 and my goal BMI is 25. I know this has to be a lifestyle change and I have to find something I can do forever.

I've also set up mini goals and rewards for every 10 pounds I lose. After the first 10 pounds I get to pick a movie to go to. After the second 10 pounds I'll get a pedicure. And so on with the rewards getting a little bigger every 10 pounds to help keep me motivated to stick to it.

I'll keep you updated on my progress.
