And Now For Something Completely Different
I joined Weight Watchers today. It was almost accidental.
I decided Sunday that I had reached "That Point." You know the one, where you've just had it with yourself and can't go on another minutes with the way things are. First, I decided that I would set a few moderate goals. This week's goal was to avoid all vending machines, prepare as much food as possible on Sunday, and take my lunch and snacks to work every day.
First, I weighed Sunday and was surprised that I hadn't gained any weight since my last post a couple of months ago. I attributed that to my increased activity level with the start of school. OK! Hey, maybe I can do this now, because it wasn't working before.
I had heard that they had started an on-site WW meeting at my school, so I asked someone about it, and it turned out to be meeting today, so I dropped in. I haven't done WW in, oh, 18 years or so. I've never counted points, but I figure can't be that different from any other tracking system. I just need to write things down and keep up with them some way.
I think I was inspired that my lack of vending machine and/or fast food in three days had given me a two pound drop immediately. So I decided to strike while the iron was hot, so to speak.
So here I am.
