The Weigh-In

Well, it was as bad as I feared. I weighed in at 16 stone 3lbs (227lbs; 103kg), just 2lbs away from the heaviest I have ever been. But, being positive, I'm not the heaviest I've ever been, and I am determined never to be again.

So, what am I going to do about it? Deciding to join Weight Watchers was the first step, and writing this blog is another step that I feel will help me to maintain my focus.

I had written an entire article this evening, only for it not to save when I tried to publish it (screams silently). But now, it's late, and I'm going to bed. Not to be put off though, I will try again in the morning! Assuming I can remember what I wrote...

Today is the Day

So... I'm sitting here at silly o'clock, writing this. Can't sleep. I have decided to join Weight Watchers in the morning, and for some reason, it's keeping me awake. And it's not like I haven't done this before - I have been a Weight Watchers member in the past, and have had success with their program. What could be different this time?
For one thing, I'm pretty certain that the pounds I lost previously have all piled back on, with plenty of interest accrued! And I'm 50 now. To say I'm dreading getting weighed in the morning, is an understatement. I have plenty of reasons for wanting to lose the weight that keeps right on finding me, and I'll get into that another time, but for now, I'm going to try and grab a couple more hours sleep. I do hope you'll tag along with me as I make this journey - I know I would love to have your company.
