One big step towards living well

So today I made a giant step on the road to becoming healthy! Here's the scoop......

I have been struggling for quite some time with this weight issue of mine (no secret). So a few months back, I decided to start back up on the one and only program that helped me lose weight in the past. What program you ask?????? Weight Watchers!

See, when I got pregnant with my first son, I was around 110 pounds. At the time I thought I was FAT!!!!! Looking back, what was I thinking? I must have been looking in a fun house mirror! You know the kind at the carnivals that make you look all short and fat.

Now here I am in a place that I vowed I would NEVER be! I am very uncomfortable with how I feel so I am doing something about it!

For the past few months I have been doing Weight Watchers, but not the old fashioned way. I decided that I didn't need the support of the meetings or the help and advice of a leader. I was going to do this on my own and didn't need any help! (spoiled brat mentality right)

How has that been working for me????? Well it hasn't! I failed miserably, week after week, pound after pound, I was just not losing weight. I need to be held accountable. Soooooooo I broke down and decided to switch to the old fashioned way! Hey it work for me before. I lost 40 pounds after I gave birth to my first Prince!

Today I attended my first meeting..........

I can't believe how stubborn I was being. What a fool I was! It was wonderful! I learned a few pointers about what other people do to stay motivated. I heard ideas of works for them, and they were all so nice! It felt good to be in a room full of people that actually knew how I felt and have either been where I am or are just starting like myself.

This was a big step in the right direction! Now, if I don't do what I am suppose to, I have a room full of people to hold me accountable!

Sometimes in life we just need help, and that's ok!

Love Much, Live Well
