One Pound at a Time!

It's Tuesday - you know what that means! WW meeting. I am so proud of Arthur - she has reached the 15 pound mark!!!!!!!!!!!! Me - I have taken off a little over 7 pounds!!!! Our meeting was very good tonight. We discussed the 'levels of comfort' you feel in regards to hunger and satisfaction. The low end of the scale is VERY HUNGRY. When you are at this point you will eat anything and everything to get out of this zone. It's a dangerous place to be. On the opposite end of the scale is OVER STUFFED. This happens when you eat too quickly, eat stuff you shouldn't, or go to the Mexican restaurant and eat a basket of chips and bowl of salsa before your food is brought out. It's not a good place to be either.

Right in the middle is the GOOD zone. You feel hungry, you eat a decent meal, you stop before you over do it. You aren't miserable and you have no guilt.

We found out that tonight was our leader's last night. She drives all the way to Loganville from beyond Porterdale to direct us, but she has taken on a teaching job and doesn't feel she can do both. We understand, but we will miss her. Our new leader is a man and we will meet him next Tuesday. We have two men in our WW group, so they are probably looking forward to having a male leader. It could be fun. We'll see. And I'll let you know.
