Day 9B - Dresses

I'm back and hopefully to stay (or until I get rid of the next 20 pounds).  I've signed up for Weight Watchers On-Line but realize that I now have to learn to navigate a new computer program which includes documenting everything that goes into my mouth.  Something tells me that this is going to get old rather quickly but for now I'll do my best.  I'm not big on figuring out points.  I would rather put in the calories and have it tell me to keep eating or go to sleep (that's the only option that would work for me if it told me to stop eating).  I may have to go to the meetings to get the hang of the points thing and then do the on-line deal but at this point I've committed to 3 months on-line.  Let's see how that goes. 
My incentive you ask???  I bought two dresses and they "just" fit - OK, possibly a little snug.  I have been working on holding my breath for long periods of time since when I put them on breathing becomes a tiny little problem.  So, on that note, I need to get the next 10 pounds off in the next 30 days.  If that doesn't happen I will have to remain in the upright position all night for this little party I'll be attending.  No sitting, no laughing (because when I laugh I tend to lean or bend a bit), just standing which may not be a bad thing since I purchased a pair of extremely high heels (I was by myself and for a split second thought I was still in my 20's). I guess it will work out either way although being able to breath, laugh & sit down occasionally does sound a bit more appealing then the alternative.
My plan is to step it up a notch.  More time on the elliptical, more hiking on the weekends and more walks in my neighborhood.  We just got a trampoline in the backyard but I keep thinking I should be in a cute little skirt and crop top to work out on it and I know that that will be the straw that breaks the camels back for my teenage daughters if I go with that plan.  Sometimes even I wonder where this stuff comes from that pops into my head.
