Today was the first official day for me on Weight Watchers, and I am ending the day 3 points under my allotment. Now I have been half halfheartedly doing Weight Watchers on line since January, without a lot of success. The difference today is I signed up to attend weekly meetings and weigh ins. Now you may ask yourself, why would that make a difference? The answer....who wants to be a failure in front of others? Not me. Being accountable to someone besides your self can be quite motivating. No matter how much we think it doesn't matter, the truth of the matter is, it does. The bottom line is we can be competing for anything, and we will strive on some level to be successful. Competition is normal, natural and for the most part can be rewarding, whether or not we win or lose. Why? Because it challenges us to rise to the occasion and be the best we can be. And at the end of the day there is great self satisfaction in knowing you did the best you could in whatever you attempt. What could feel better than that......well maybe if I shed a few pounds in the process, that will be the cherry on top.
I think I should definitely skip the cupcake
