New Years' (kind of) resolution

OK, I know it is the classic cliche, but this past weekend I joined Weight Watchers with the intention of losing weight and developing an overall healthy lifestyle. What I am hoping to do with Weight Watchers is go from being one of these people who resolves at the beginning of the year to lose weight and then stops trying in March or April. I figure Meredith doing it at the same time will help - I think in the past we both wanted to be healthier but we couldn't put any kind of concrete frame around that desire. I am very happy with both the session leader at the place where I joined and the Weight Watchers website with its food tracking and meal planning tools. I have had a couple craving moments over the past couple of days but generally I feel like I'm doing well.

Congratulations! I'm a Lifetime member of WWs and love the program! Being able to track my food on the website appeals to my gecky side too. I also love my leader. She's a Catholic woman with 10 children and I think she's up to 37 grandchildren. Her meeting keeps me laughing and is very inspirational. It's like going to a comedy club without the drinking. One woman that attends my meeting lost 149 pounds! Good luck and drink your water. :-)

I lost 15 pounds with South Beach. I've managed to keep most of it off but the pressures of my job (hell desk) are conspiring to undo my hard work.
