Almost!!!!

Tonight I was anxious about weigh in. Normally I would be as cool as a cucumber but being only 1.1 Kg away from the Weight Watchers goal (not my personal goal) you start to get nervous about whether you have done it or not. Seeing as tonight was the last night my leader would be doing the meetings it would have been nice to get to goal seeing as she has been there the whole way through my journey with Weight Watchers. Alas it was not meant to be. I hopped on the scales and found myself just short of the target. I was 200g away from victory. It was good because it meant that next week I would smash it but at the same time I would have liked to have had her last meeting as a really good memory. Unfortunately I didn't get what I want but that is okay, it just means I will be very excited next week.

In a way it is probably a good thing I didn't get there just yet because it means that I will be starting March as a whole different person, a skinnier one!! If I look back at how I felt when I first started, the transformation is amazing!!!! Not only am I thinner but I have transformed inside as a person from a caterpillar to a butterfly and I now know after lots of soul searching and spiritual help that I am at peace with myself, both physically and mentally. I am more outgoing, have loads of friends, enjoy life more and am definitely more active. I didn't think I would be this happy after achieving such a milestone even though I have a more personal weight loss goal in mind.

That said, I don't think that there are many people out there who can say that they are truly happy with their existence. They find themselves changing jobs, eating their feelings using chocolate or fast food, feeling depressed and generally not at peace with themselves or their surroundings. To those people out there I say change your life. If you are overweight, depressed, have low self esteem and other health problems I recommend you give Weight Watchers a go, you never know, you might just discover the true you underneath all the weight, low self esteem and depressed feelings.

Until next time,
