Something you should probably know about me.....I was nearly 80lbs over weight. I am shocked to write it. Last March, I hit an all time high when I went to the doctor and she said I was very close to being considered "obese" based on the measurements she took of me. She slide her finger across the chart and stopped at my weight, then ran her other finger to the number represented. I knew I had to do something. But wasn't inspired. Then, someone took a photo of my son and I together. I was so shocked, that I started Weight Watchers the next day. My anniversary for 1 year was just four months ago. I was told I could possibly lose all of the weight in 1 year. Ha! I did lose 50lbs though. I'm different looking, but I am not done yet. These 50lbs represent my divorce, massage therapy school, having to move out of my marital home with my young children and more. Losing these pounds has brought me to a very happy place. I lost some of those memories, though not all of them. I'm in a place right now where I am ready to start new. It's wonderful to feel this way. I do have 30-40 more pounds to lose. So how are you doing? Is it time to eat healthy foods again? Foods that revitalize your mind, spirit and body? I'm really thinking hard how to incorporate healthy food and exercise into my daily life to lose the balance of my weight. Weight Watchers was good for getting started. Now I've got to do the rest on my own. Will you join me?
