There are no shortcuts to any place worth going. Beverly

The plan all week had been to have a totally free Weight
Watcher weekend, yesterday I ended working most of the day and I enjoyed it,
sitting at my desk in my PJ’s working doesn’t take as much energy as getting
dressed and going to promote the business, so I ended up having a really
enjoyable, productive day catching up with my members journey’s.
I tracked all day too, I spent some time thinking about
why I’d like to lose a few pounds, I did a bit of planning for the week ahead
and I tidied my kitchen and sorted my cupboards, note to self: I don’t need any
more rice, grains or cooking bags! The
Hairy Bikers lamb saag sauce is good, especially if you leave it and reheat it,
unfortunately mine ended up in the bin because I forgot to put the lid back on
and it had flies on it when mom went in the kitchen! Yak! We had half a pizza each instead with a corn
on the cob – stayed on track though!
Total I’m thinking salmon, corn on the cob and brown rice
for lunch, eggs for breakfast because I have all those duck eggs to use up,
then I might cook some KFC style chicken for tea, or if not too hungry just
have some spaghetti, we shall see. Have
meal ideas planned but gong with what I fancy as if I’m doing F&H, I haven’t
got to worry about the ProPoints.
When taking my measurements yesterday for my journal I
realised I haven’t gained any weight but my waist has increased by 1.5
inches! Oh my days, I think that’s what
they call the middle-aged spread, definitely the motivation I needed to get me
losing some weight, my health is important to me, more so than my appearance
and that’s why I’m taking this tracking seriously now, no more playing about at
it, I want at least half stone off, there’s 20 more weigh days till Christmas,
my plan is to not gain from now till then!
Sat here eating melon as I type – I know strictly I shouldn’t be eating
and typing but I stop to eat then start typing again after a slice. So if you are ready and on track what would
you like to achieve by Christmas, here’s your possibilities;

The longer you leave it the harder it take, you should
never put off doing something you can’t go a day without thinking about, if it’s
always in your mind, it’s obviously very important to you.
When I was looking through my members cards yesterday, it
was a great reminder of how many fabulous achievements I witness every week,
they’re not all weight related, some are medical, some personal, all sorts of
BeYOUtiful moments I get to share, only this week Julie who’s journey started towards the end of June 2012 when her
diabetic nurse asked her to try Weight Watchers because she was really
struggling to control her blood sugars, even with lots of medication she tells
me she was on a slippery slope with her diabetes. She hasn’t looked back since, to date she has lost
7 stone and now only takes one tablet a day to control her blood sugars,
previously she was on two injections a day and give tablets! That’s what you call healthy and happy!
Yes whether it’s half a stone or 20
stone you want to lose, you won’t make it happen unless you start….
Make today Starting Sunday, use the
spare time you may have to think about how you’re going to do this, why you
want to and what needs to happen for you to succeed.
Focus on the healthy & happy
always.
