All About Attitude

This isn't an ad for WW, but I must recommend it. I find it to be an excellent program. Nothing is off limits. The program is designed to let you start gradually and just make one healthier choice at a time. One thing that is different for me this time around is my attitude. I finally decided to love myself just as I am - fat and all. Once that decision was made, the losing weight part became much easier. I do what I do because I love me and want me to be healthy, not because I feel ugly or someone looked at me with disgust. I don't beat myself up if I "fall of the wagon" Everything is in the wagon (just not as much of it)! My happiness is not contingent upon whether or not I lose weight, therefore the pressure is off and it's so much easier to just be me and be healthy. I am sure I aggrevate my friends by telling them how many points are in everything I eat, but they are still encouraging me. Even if there's no one to encourage you toward your goal - be your own best cheerleader. And let me know - I will cheer for you!
