So, as I said in the other thread, I just joined WW on Thursday. I did it about 15 years ago and lost 40 lbs, so I know it works. Unfortunately, I now weigh more than I did when I was 9 months pregnant with my almost-4-year old. I am so embarrassed to look in the mirror or to be seen (I cringe when I have to have a photo taken).
I've known that I've NEEDED to lose weight for a while, but I just didn't WANT it. And honestly, I think that's the key. If you don't WANT it, you aren't going to do it. I mean, obvsiously, I wanted to be thinner, but I wanted that milkshake more. LOL
I've tried MFP numerous times and always drop a little, and then I give up and gain that back and then some. So, that's why I decided to do WW this time. I need the accountability. I'm going to meetings so that I have to check in with someone in person each week. My husband, mom, and sister are all doing it with me, so I definitely feel good about the support.
So glad we'll have this thread each week!
