12 months ago I was feeling unwell, tired and very unmotivated. I had just had a hysterectomy and with very high blood pressure, I felt I had to take some serious steps to losing some weight otherwise the Dr will put me on medication to get the blood pressure down.
I have done the weight watchers program before and lost 20 kilos then became a life time member, but for the last 10 years I have done everything in my powers to stay away from WW and when I have gone to a meeting I didnt last very many weeks. This made me think that If I am going to get really serious, I need to make a big commitment to losing weight. It meant I had to get my whole family involved in the journey. The family were right behind me and my younger daughter even came to meetings with me and would study the program so that she could help me and encourage me.
I weighed in the heaviest ever!!! 103.6 kilo, boy I am not proud of that but hey its out there now.
So with the program in hand and a new commitment I went home to read through all the information that I received from WW. My younger daughter wanted me to make a small goal of 5 kilo and think of a non food reward.
She also convinced me to go back to the gym and to commit to going at least 3 times a week. (I must add now that this daughter is studying to be a fitness trainer)
I must say the program was fairly simple to follow and with my renewed enthusiasm and encouragement from my family the weight started to fall off me. By christmas I had lost 5 kilo and I was so proud of myself.
I will continue this in the next post... so much to say
Follow my weight loss journey with me as I follow the weight watchers program and exercise my way to a healthier me
