1st step

Well today I went to Weight Watchers meeting and weighed in.. the number on the scale was not a suprise except i was actually down 2 lbs from when I went to dr a week ago.. anyway I have to say I am kinda confused at the point system but I am sure I will get it.. I have always counted calories or allowed myself 4 carbs 4 meats 2 dairy etc.. so this may take a bit.. but I am going to take baby steps and until i really get the hang of it I will do as best that I can. I will combine the point system with my know how.. It was a good meeting and there were two newbys that we seemed to relate to each other.. I think I will continue to go to Burnsville for my main meetings and if I cant make a Saturday I can always go to Shakopee location. Steady as she goes... I also went to the Communtiy Group and it was good I just dont know if I will commit to it as of now.. too much on Saturday's ... I am reaching out to a friend of mine that is in AA and asking her to kinda help me look at my food as an addiction and to work with me on following the 12 step program on my own with her guiding me.. we will see. I see my therapist on Wednesday and I think it will be good timing because I feel myself getting wanting to obsess over this already and this is not what I want to do.. I want to do this the right way this time and not get into the numbers game , the exercise phantom life.. my new motto is " Steady I Go" One Day at a Time... I will keep you posted... the amount of weight that I want to lose is about 50 lbs.. but at WW they say lets start with 20% for first goal... So I am going to share with you my goals for this week: 2 Sodas only a day..Big goal for me... drink more water.. walk treadmill 3 times this week. So all you out there hold me accountable.. Till next time..
