Weight Loss Step 2

Ruthie’s 2nd Step… You Need Help!
I could not go it alone! I needed help in learning what to eat and to step on that scale every week. I needed support. It is very recommended by me to have a support system. The more public you go the better. It holds you more accountable for what is going in your mouth! I had to get over myself some. I was very embarrassed to step on that scale. When I had a different weigher, I almost walked out. I know it is as private as it can be. As I lost the weight it became easier to tell! I used to weigh this and now I have lost this much! That is a big step!
Now you are wondering if I am going to tell you right? You bet!
I on Jan. 5th 2007 weighed 305 pounds. Whoa!
I have lost 117 pounds as of July 8th, 2008! I still have some to go so I am in your boat! Working toward the healthier me, which I am.
To make the good choices you have to be a label reading, and eat healthier foods. I am currently in Weight Watchers. One of these days I will quit the meetings and do it without the support of a group. I highly recommend you find support in family and friends. That is why you need to let people know.
I had a friend make a Weight Watcher’s cake at a church Sweetheart dinner so I could have a piece of cake. How supportive is that?! Friends are great!
I am here for you guys!
Keep on keeping on.... Making better choices for a healthier you!
