Recommitting...Again

Like anything losing weight and maintaining weight is not an easy task. Almost a month ago I lost my and my mother instantly thought that I would I would gain back all of the weight I lost. Well I only gained 1 lb. However, I gained 5 lbs prior to losing my job. Why? Well, my meeting was shut down that I attended during my lunch hour. I found my old leader at another location on Saturdays but a few weeks after joining that meeting I started class that meets every other Saturday. The Saturdays in between I have been busy with other things. I should have attended a meeting on another day but I didn't and was weighing in once a month.

Weighing in only once a month was an eye opening experience for me. I felt like a thread that was slowly unraveling. The more time I put in between meetings the more I would just eat whatever I wanted to eat. I had lost my focus and the weight was slowly creeping back up. I knew I needed to do something sooner than later.

Today I went to Weight Watchers. I rededicated myself to the program. As I was sitting in the chair I felt like the leader was talking to me. She shared about how important it was for her to attend meetings. The whole experience felt like when you are sitting in church and your pastor delievers a message, you think that he wrote it just for you because it relates to everything going on in your life at that moment. So I am rededicated and fired up to do this thing. 15 lbs to Goal!
