I wasn't sure if I wanted to write about this on here, but I figured it's something that's going to be part of my life now, so I wanted to share some of it with you lovely people.
I've had an issue with my weight pretty much my whole life. I'm not going to bore you with the details, we'll leave that for another time, but this week I finally decided to do something about it. So, off I went to my local Weight Watchers class. I've been a WW regular years ago, so it really wasn't anything new to me. When I walked into the St. John's Ambulance hall on Monday evening, I was greeted by my lovely new leader! Even the members were brilliant, lots of hilarious banter and really easy going. I stayed for the meeting and got all my paperwork and books in order and then went to the supermarket to stock up on lots of healthy fruit and veg! It's really all about making healthy changes. We are the kings of ordering takeaways, so we've put a stop to that, which I think will be a massive help. I'm also cutting down on my alcoholic beverages (shock horror!), especially during the week. Once my back is in better shape, I'll be able to get back into the fitness aspect too.
I'm not going to post my weight on here, but I might report back with my losses. Inspired by the lovely Chloe, I've started a blog on the WW webiste, where there's loads of support and help, if you need it. Reading Chloe's blog is really motivating as we had a similar amount of weight to lose, so I know that it's possible. My leader even sent me a text on Tuesday to ask how I was getting on, I honestly can't fault this WW class!
O and I are going out for dinner tonight, so my resolve and my WW counting skills with both be put to the test, wish me luck! :)
