One Year Anniversary
One year ago today I decided to join Weight Watchers. I had reached a peak that I didn't want to and was very uncomfortable, embarrassed, and fearful. I felt heart pressure and palpation. I was needing a bigger size. I was having trouble moving like I wanted to. I was depressed and anxious. I needed to change. I decided to join with my only goal to work the program for 6 months. Around July I realized that I needed to be healthier in other ways too. I took up journaling and meditating. I learned about myself by taking personality test, etc. I got into my spiritual health in my God and in the other realm. I started practicing self-care and working on my relationship with my husband. I started doing hygge activities in the fall. Though I have been sitting on a weight loss plateau for the last 5 months and that is getting old, I can say that in my adult life I have probably not been all-around healthier..... ever. I feel pretty good. I just need to get off this damn plateau. I have started incorporating some other programs with Weight Watchers to connect with my "why" and "payoff". I have completed the "Finding Freedom" program. A Christian program for health and self-esteem that showed me the how and why of it. I finished just recently a "Emotional Eating Workshop" which taught me the pay off. I am currently in the Finish Lines Support Group, a Christian support that works with Weight Watchers program. I realized I needed some sort of support. Now I just need to put it in motion. I think that without the losing, it makes the suffering of working out and not enjoying food seem pointless. I need to learn to enjoy both. Ha! I know I need to keep going, but I am tired.
