Fridays are my weigh in days for Weight Watchers. That means I live in fear of Friday mornings, but not really. This is my second time around with Weight Watchers, and I'm really enjoying it. The first time I joined, I was living in my hometown where the meetings were held on Thursday evenings. I was did the program from February until I moved in July and then tried to do it all by myself because the meetings in this area are not in the town where I live nor are they convenient with my work schedule. Well, I lost a total of 33 pounds, and then I just couldn't do it by myself anymore. Without someone or something to be accountable to, I lost my motivation and gained 40 pounds. Well, the gain wasn't just from loss of motivation, I had one hell of a stressful year last year, and that certainly didn't help.

By the first week of July this year, I was so miserable feeling and so down on myself that I knew that I had to try again. I still can't make it to the meetings, so I reluctantly signed up for their Online program. I've tried a different online program before, E Diets, and that honestly and truly did not work at all for me, so I was very hesitant to spend the money. I am now just starting on my 8th week of the program, and I've lost 11.6 pounds! I have definitely gotten over my reservations of just doing the online program without the meetings. I am online constantly and having the Points Tracker there staring at me with everything I've eaten so far during the day is a great way to hold myself accountable. This time around I won't have a reason to quit the program, and I'm looking forward to reaching my goal!
