I did some lurking before I set out to join the wonderful world of blogging; in my journies I found Amy @ The 4th Frog Blog. Even without meeting face to face I know I like Amy, she faces things head on with a tongue in cheek attitude.
I was reading her newest entry this morning and the topic hit home, hard......weight. It's a four letter word for most women (as in WAIT......don't put that in your mouth), it's a screaming, capitalized word for me....WEIGHT, ugh.
I joined a Weight Watchers at work program 12 weeks ago. I thought, this will be great, I won't have to worry about getting myself to evening meetings, I can get it all done during the work day! Good Deal!!!! Except in those 12 weeks I lost 10 lbs and gained 3 of them back. 7lbs gone in 12 weeks, not my best attempt. The group has decided to go another round; this time 17 weeks, me included.
When I saw Amy's post with a link to Annie's post @ Fairies n Firecrackers about committing to small steps towards a weight loss journey I thought, I'd like to be a part of this. So Annie @ Fairies n Firecrackers I'm on board! I started walking a 1/2 mile circuit around my job location once a day with another gal also in the WW @ work program last Thursday. I here by commit myself to that walk 3 - 5 days a week. That will be my first small step.
And Amy, I'm here for you girl! When/if you make the decision, let me know, I'd be happy to be part of your support group.
