POSSIBLY JOINING WEIGHT WATCHERS · 2/18/2009 This is a public story

i have a friend from church. her names pat. and she happens to be my bishops wife.

anyway, were connected on a couple of social networks and she had posted a comment for all of her connections too reply too which was something to the effect of:

would anyone be interested in trying too loose weight with her, and possibly doing it via WEIGHT WATCHERS.

i replied back, that i needed too loose weight and too let me know about weight watchers.

she emailed me and asked if i could look online for the rates, so i did and sent her a copy of them.
i didnt think 25 buck for 2 weeks was bad/50.00 a month. seemed reasonable enough.

so she emailed me back and asked if *I* thought we could do it alone. no group , no weigh ins, no support ppl there for encouragement.
she said she had the book and knew how too do everything by points like they tell you too do it.

i said i didnt see why we couldnt do it alone, but felt we needed too incorporate one person, neutral, too answer too, and report too, and be there as the man-in-the-middle for us. im sure we can do it, but having to be held responsible too another person makes a person more motivated i felt.

i took into account im diabetic and maybe the meal plans arnt good for me, so i looked online and searched out DIABETES & WEIGHT WATCHERS and hit a few forums with members who had told about their experience with type 2 diabetes and running the WW system, and all of them (about 5 i read) all had positive reviews too say about the WW program and their weight control and sugar controls.

so, i sent pat back an email telling her all i could find was all good and we could start whenever she was ready.

she had mentioned walking, and i said i REALLY needed to do that, and i have a treadmill, but i DONT walk, because i get bored and have no one too socialize with while i do it.

so...i might be starting a well suited and proven program. and a walking regiment soon.

everything helps.
