Future MILF: Weigh One

Weekly Weigh In: About F'king Time. (No pounds lost since this was my first weigh in. But did I mention about f'king time? Cause I gained 7 pounds since Christmas!)

I started out the morning with a little cruise through the McDonald's drive through. This transpired because I of course, did not eat anything when I woke up since I was paranoid about what to eat before I joined Weight Watchers. 2 hours later, I'm starving and eating an Egg McMuffin. Ugh. But come lunchtime I got myself to my first WW meeting of the year. Now I had done WW 4 years ago but I still forced myself to sit through the explanation of how to work the Points Calculator and how many glasses of water I should be drinking cause I'm trying to be straight up about all this. I'm even going to attend the meetings. But for the most part I was a big grinning non-cynical dork that was super excited to have gotten my non-weight related star! A star!

The meeting leader was very nice. Though when she asked what our ultimate goals were other members called out things like, "To wear a swimsuit in public!" and I yelled, "To see my lady bits without moving aside my belly!". Yes I did really say that. Because as you know, that is an actual goal. It was also kind of test to figure out who I should sit next to in the next meeting. There was only one lady that didn't laugh and instead started talking about how her Christian (glare in my direction) beliefs were guiding her WW efforts. I'm pretty sure we aren't going to be WW-BFF. But I'm down with that.

I'm going to start with CORE versus straight up point counting. And yes, I'm counting the Egg McMuffin out of my bank of bonus points.

Other MILF Notes.

First - All you future MILF'ers rock on! We are going to do this together! I'm coming to see you this weekend at your blogs and can't wait to read your first posts.

Second - Oh The Joys (our honorary MILF Mentor as she is about to enter Lifetime maintenance status at WW) wrote an accounting of her weight loss. It's long, but super amusing and hysterical as all her posts are.

Third - Contrary to Oh The Joy's interpretation of how I used the word MILF I'm not going to be "getting busy" with any of you! It was meant in a general way, not specific to my personal desires towards you sexy bloggers. But if you reach goal I may be willing to send you a dirty email if it keeps you motivated. As long as you don't mind if it comes from my pseudonym, "Raoul,the pool boy".

Lastly - Rumor has it that there are few folks that are not so keen on the MILF label. I totally understand that. My friend Carol and I disagree on using the word Bitch. I think it's ok to greet a good friend with, "bitch what's up?" but she disagrees and so we adapt. Here is my response to those that dislike MILF as a term. I hate the term MILF as it was originally used. I LOVE that we are reclaiming it with humor. It's ours baby. We own it now.

By the way, tune into Motherhood Uncensored Blog Radio this coming Monday for what should be a great debate on using the word MILF.
