An absolute bloody breakthrough!!
I've had an absolute breakthrough. Something, and I'm not entirely sure what that actually is, has happened. The only way i can articulate this feeling is that something had finally clicked. I was awake, alone, and browsing through WW vanity, reading up about success stories and admiring the before and after pictures of all these amazing people. It inspired me in a way that cannot actually be verbalized. I felt so full of hope, and positivity, as i watched these people reach and exceed their wildest dreams. One woman lost 100 pounds, and she looked incredible. Another, 20 pounds, and equally fabulous. Comparing all the successes actually lead me to quit a contemplative period of my day. I sat there, reading all these amazingly joyous stories, and i noticed that not one was the same. They all had a unique, and lovely story to tell. An individual and unique journey was had by all. I stared to think about the hard times they must have had, before they got on the "wagon" as i like to call it. Some, twice my size. Something had to "click" for these people to get the ball rolling in their weight-loss experience. I don't believe it is possible to succeed in weight-watchers, or any healthy eating plan, without 100% from the heart. It takes hard work, and dedication, but most of all it takes love. You really have to love yourself for this achievement to be reached. You must wake up everyday in the complete mode of "I deserve this".
Only recently have i began to understand this notion. WW on live journal was the angel I have been looking for. It suits me so perfectly. I am constantly near my computer, so i feel secure too knowing at any moment of weakness, or triumph, there will be someone to share the feeling with. It is such comfort.
So, I have made a decision today. I will no longer attend weight watcher weekly meetings. My reasons for this are in ways financial. However, it is the pre-dominant feeling of that "click" that i am mostly driven by. Today, i read something on someones journal that sparked a chord in me. It has inspired me, and made me realize that, no question about it, i can do this. I have decided that tomorrow, Monday the 26th April 2008, i will pick out a set of light clothes that will from now on be, my weigh in gear. I will weigh myself tomorrow at a particular time and i will record the time and the weight. Tis is something i will do every week, at the same time. By wearing the same clothes, sing the same scale, and weighing-in at the same time weekly, i have no excuse. This over-joys me. I will constantly keep you posted of my success (because there will be a lot of it, i can assure you). Today, for the first time in a long time, i didn't need to "convince" myself that my day would come. My day is today, and i am claiming it.
Starting weight : Well i shall let you know tomorrow.
So until then, good day and good night my friends.
p.s. i would love your comments. Makes me feel like someone is listening.
