I attended my 1st Weight Watchers meeting on March 7, 2002 weighing in at a whopping 240.6, ( I really had no clue) and officially began my journey that evening following the meeting. I have had a weight problem all of my life although I have had a few "skinny times" here and there, but eventually I would put the weight back on and then some. I had tried losing a few times on my own prior to WW to no avail.
I really never dreamed I would make my goal, much less make lifetime. At my 1st weigh in I had lost 2.2 lbs. Not a whole lot, but wow.....I ate like crazy and still lost, so I figured I would see how far I could go with it. I then started setting mini challenges for myself and I really believe this was one of things that kept me motivated to keep going. I would also join different challenges from the Weight Watcher's Message Boards.
The same week I started WW I also started walking and soon that became my main form of exercise. When I first started walking I could barely make it around the block and I remember thinking that it would take forever to get home. Now I can walk for miles and feel great.
To date I have lost 105lbs and I am now employed by WW as a receptionist. Weight Watchers is not a diet, it is a lifestyle change and it is now my way of life.
Feel free to look around my site and hopefully it will help answer alot of your questions. Also,please sign my guest book to let me know you stopped by and email me if you would like.
