Weight Watchers here I come

For the past few years, I have gained weight. In 2012, I weighed the least I ever had and was 12 pounds away from my goal weight.

Then, for some reason (I really don't know what triggered it), I started gaining weight. Ok, one can gain a few pounds, then get back under control. It happens, but no. I let it go on far too long and I gained 40 pounds in 2.5 years. Yea.

Awful, isn't it? It's ok. I'm not going to be offended. I'm angry at myself for letting it happen. So, this past Sunday I decided enough is enough. I have been saying that for months now, but doing nothing. I kept thinking I could do it on my own. But, I am wrong. I can't.

What did I do? I signed up for Weight Watchers on-line. I have done the meetings before, but I have found I have very little in common with the people in the meetings. I would go, weigh in, then leave. What's the point in that? Instead, I joined the on-line program. I am more of a loner anyway. I believe this will be more successful.

Weigh ins are on Friday {which has always been a good way for me to do this} and I'm hoping for a great first week! I have a big goal of 12-15 pounds by July 2nd. It is doable, I just have to follow the program.

What have you done to lose weight? Are you better at a structured program or going it alone?
