15 by May 25

I returned to Weight Watchers last night - not for the diet, but for the structure, accountability, and support. I plan to continue to eat the way that works for me, but I'll weigh-in each week at Weight Watchers and attend the meeting. The meeting topics are usually focused on behavioral change, not food. These meetings helped and motivated me in the past; now that I know the way that I need to eat, I think I can actually follow-through on what I learn each week at the meeting. Sue, my Weight Watcher leader, has known me for years and seen my struggle. She understands that I am not following the Weight Watcher program as prescribed; she supports me in doing what is best for me.

I have lost 4 pounds in the last two weeks since renewing my commitment to weight loss. I want to lose 15 more by May 25; that's 12 weeks away. I'll be weighing in every Tuesday night and reporting my progress here on Wednesday's.

Way to go Pat! I love the idea of you taking the parts of different programs that work for you (Eating Paleo/primal, working out crossfit, accountability through WW). You really seem to have the formula down. Congratulations on your progress!!

Great working out with you this AM!! Always fun. I wish I could skip the early AM meeting at work more often.

There are ups and downs in the journey but over the last couple of years you have definitely made major steps in the right direction. Keep going!!
