I started this site about this time last year, became un-focused in building it, walked away and gained more weight.
More recently, I've been out of control. I know for those of us who struggle with this weight battle that is a very common thing. But when I got on the scale at 427 lbs. someone might as well had slapped me in the face. I decided then that I wasn't going to find that beginning "Magic" that I had when I first joined Weight Watchers in November 2004 so I had to find something that would.
I decided that I would build a web-site for the world to see, I would turn my life around by being accountable to whoever found it and took the time to read it. While I have ideas floating around in my head about this site, I just wanted to get this "Home" page up because today is the end of my party FOREVER! I truly mean that.
I've decided to change Weight Watcher classes even though it will be hard to say good-bye to Mike, my lecturer, who has been there thru thick and thin, has taught me more than anyone else has about program, weight loss in general and about myself, but I feel the need that I need to move on and start a new thing hoping that it too will help bring the excitement and newness back to the program.
Back in January 2007, I asked Mike how to get the newness and excitement back to doing program, his response was "Go to the nearest Funeral Home and look inside the caskets and if that doesn't bring the excitement back then nothing will." Later in the year we had another conversation and he went on to tell me that this needed to be all about me, I had do it for me and I needed to get selfish! So Mike, here's to you (but more importantly for me)...from today on I am going to be selfish because I AM worth it and Mike for all that you have taught me...I AM GOING TO GOAL!!!!
Let's get this NEW journey started...
