I don’t want to attend my WeightWatchers meeting tonight. I don’t want to get on the scale. I don’t want to be accountable. I don’t want to think about the crap I ate over the weekend and how that totally de-railed my efforts. Even if I lost weight I don’t want to know because I really am not in a place right now where I want to repeat what I’ve been doing. Change needs to be my goal.
There, I said it.
That actually helps me a lot, because a lot of the time when members don’t show up at the meetings I run myself, I figure they must not like me, I must not have inspired them enough, I must have failed at the task of instilling them with hope and with spurring them to action. When I look out at the empty seats of people who stopped attending meetings out of frustration, I get mad and think “how can I get people to realize this is not a place of judgment!”
And then I go, judging myself.
So, do me a favor. Don’t judge yourself. Don’t judge me.
JUST GO TO THE MEETING!

Ronni: I look forward to seeing you soon!

Headed out to a meeting this morning fully expecting a gain … a well-earned gain at that. I’m sure the half gallon+ of ice cream I’ve downed on my own over the last couple of days, plus the saltine binge I’ve been on will not bode well for scale results. And, of course, a couple of days of pork and sauerkraut and mashed potatoes and dumplings etc…well, need I say more.
But, the results are the results whether I see them or not, so I’m going to the meeting anyway - and looking forward to getting back home in a few days where I have complete control of my environment!
