HALF WAY TO GOAL 

Weighed in last night and I've lost 45.6 pounds since July 1, 2011. I am half way to my goal. Yesterday was really hard because it was my birthday and work presented a huge chocolate cake. I didn't eat any (just a taste off the server) because I wanted to save my points for dinner. Went to Johnny Reb's (a local bbq restaurant). We had a great meal and peach cobbler for desert. My birthday was great but the weight loss was greater still. Hanging in there to meet my goal.
 

Encouragement 

 
My husband is going with me to Weight Watchers. So far he has lost 22 pounds. We are working this together and the encouragement helps us to be successful.

 

LOSING WEIGHT 

Losing weight has always been a problem for people. I have tried a lot of diets, but have found in the long run that the answer is eating right and the right amounts. Weight Watchers has reminded me of things we all really know - if you eat too much you will gain weight and not lose it. They have reminded me to watch the quanitity as well as the quality of what we eat. So far I have been going to meetings since June 30, 2010 and have lost 40 pounds. I still have more to go but I am determined to make it.
