One year ago today I randomly decided to walk into a Weight Watchers meeting. One year ago today I was at my highest weight ever and beyond embarrassed. One year ago today I was scared about going to the doctors office for a physical for fear of what that results may be.
Today I can say with pride that I have lost 40lbs. Today I enjoy being active and going to the gym. Today I am healthier than I have been in a long time. Today is a new day on my journey.
While I know I didn't meet my goal of 52lbs in 52 weeks, I can't beat myself up too badly. 40lbs is nothing to snub your nose at... Plus, it's a journey, not a race.
And if you were to look at my WW weight record, it probably looks just like this. I've been gaining and losing the same 2lbs since mid January. I haven't given up, but I haven't been as dedicated as I once was. Life has gotten in the way, and thrown me quite a few curve-balls that I'm learning to deal with. Regardless, I'm finally figuring out a routine of sorts so I hope to get past this crazy plateau that I'm hanging out on.
This next year is going to be a good one... I can feel it. And with the support of my amazing family and friends it's going to be even better.
So - let's do this... and welcome to year 2 of My Journey to Happy and Healthy!!
