As long as I NEVER GIVE UP, I will EVENTUALLY SUCCEED!!! The learning comes from the Journey, not the Destination 305.6/305.6/280 (5-11-2008 Goal) |

| I am 36 years old and a stay at home mother of two boy's. My oldest is 11 and my youngest 8. I have been married for 11 years as of December. I have been overweight as far back as I can remember. I started Weight Watchers On-Line on September 8, 2001 at my all time high weight of 290.2. Over the last 6 1/2 years I have not totally been OP, but I have tried to at least follow some of the Weight Watchers ideas and philosophy. I decided to totally restart Weight Watchers as of December 30, 2007. I have not gained all of my weight back, but I came really close. My new Starting Weight for Weight Watchers is now 290.0. I am still HERE and that is one of the IMPORTANT things that I am learning. I have also learned that as long as I always get back up from the stumble I am ahead of the game. I am RECOMMITTING myself to a healthy lifestyle and am following the Weight Watchers Flex Points Plan as of 12/30/07. I have tried both FLEX and CORE, and found that FLEX works best for me. Although I do like some of the principles of CORE, it just doesn't work for me. I am setting a Weight Loss GOAL to get to 250 by May 12, 2008. I have 19 Weighs Ins before my son's 12th birthday and 40.0 pounds to go. I am also setting an Exercise Goal or 200 minutes of "Formal" exercise for this month. I'm hoping it will give me the MOTIVATION and the OWNERSHIP I need to really focus and follow through. I guess the key is as long as I restart more than I stop I will eventually SUCCEED!! I wish I could say for sure that this time is the magic time that everything is going to click and I will reach goal. In my heart I believe that, I'm just not sure my head and stomach are in sync with my heart yet. I became a Butterfly on October 17, 2001. One thing I have found since starting this journey almost 7 1/2 years ago on September 8, 2001 is that you can never have enough support:) And these groups are FABTASTIC in that area. This is my first week back On Program on this journey. I have lost up to 57.5 pounds, but then somehow always managed to get spooked at the thought of actually achieving my goal and gain back some:( NOT THIS TIME!!! I AM GOING TO ACHIEVE MY GOAL!!! I will be HEALTHIER and LEANER in 2009!!! Check back often and see my results. Hopefully knowing that people are watching will make me more accountable for my actions.
