Weigh In Day.....Tomorrow

I've decided to attend and weigh in at my old Weight Watcher meeting tomorrow with a friend. My Saturday mornings are now free from soccer games so I have no more excuses. I got my Weight Watchers magazine in the mail yesterday and it was for November/December. How can that be already!?! I don't want to gain...actually I want to loose. I know that I can be an emotional eater. Saying that, this holiday season will be very different and difficult. It is our first without my mom. My first Thanksgiving to cook as the woman of the family. And, since my mom passed away on Christmas day, it will be a very hard Christmas season for me and my family. Those things said, I think I might need the support of the actual meetings to get me through. I always had my mom at those meetings, expecting me to be there. Now my friend says she will do that for me. It will be different but I think it will be good. Heck, I attended meetings with the leader for over 5 years. I know she is good and the class has over 100 people who are incredibly supportive (a number of them actually came to my mom's funeral including the WW receptionist). So these darn last 10 lbs to get back to my WW goal weight might as well start crying....the 20 lbs I'd like to loose in addition better get scared. Because I am in a fighting mood. Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas are not going to add to my thighs. No way! Not this year!

Enjoy your Friday!!!! It is time to celebrate the Autumn...go on a hike or a color tour! Fall is by far my favorite season here in Michigan followed closely by spring, summer and even winter. Stop by www.puremichigan.org. It'll help you understand why I love the beauty of Michigan!
