GRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!<br /> <br /> during this weight loss period i went to Weight Watchers Classes and had the most amazing Leader Bernie ( that was my 3rd time being a memeber!!!) she was always there for us and we could text and call her and she would always have kind works of motivation !!!!<br /> <br /> <br /> Then i have to change my hours at work and couldn't get to meetings, i had to go working away from home ( staying in very posh hotels .... they had no idea what low fat means!!!) and it has almost all piled back on!!!! Grrrrrrrr again!!!<br /> <br /> <br /> so on Sunday 6th January 2008 i decided that i know Weight Watchers works so I've dug out all my books and decided to go it alone!!! (well myself and my mum and doing it together!!!<br /> <br /> Monday 7th January 2008 I stepped back on the scales and OMG!!!! 19st 7.5lbs!!! how on earth did that happen!!!!!<br /> <br /> So when i got home from work that night instead of reaching for the comfort food i re-registered on the WW forum... NCU and 5stone boards for some inspiration and help!!!<br /> <br /> last time i was a member i used the boards and they helped me so much... i also made really good friends with someone on the boards who went to my WW class!!! so WW not only helps us to lose weight it makes us great friends!!!!<br /> <br /> i will admit the last time i stopped doing WW i gave up on the boards because i couldn't cope with the success i was reading and i don' think that made me a good person... don't get me wrong i still congratulated people and stuff but while i sat there and ate a packet or 10 of crisps!!!!<br /> <br /> so new start new user name and lots of motivation!!!!</p> <p>I have been really orgaised - i've set myself up a spreadsheet with the WW formual so i can quickly work out points and then i can keep a log of the item!!! </p> <p>i have confirmed my BMI - 44.14&nbsp; very obese!!!! what a horrible word but soooo true!!! </p> <p>i have meausred myself!!! Arrrggghhhh!!! </p> <p>Start BMI : 44.14</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <a href="http://www.extrapounds.com/blog/princessstefi/comments/264547/the-begining">Comments(3)</a> 264547 Friday, November 30, 2007 23:01:17
