New to WW - Day 2
Hello everyone -
Just thought I'd create some motivation for myself by posting in this newsgroup. I'm new to WW -- Day 2 for me. It's a major accomplishment just going to the first meeting, so I applaud everyone who has done so! I'm excited to be eating more balanced meals and to get my munching under control. Two years ago I had a neck surgery where they cut my vertebrate on three levels and installed titanium to enlargen the spinal canal. Needless to say my lifestyle changed completely after that. Prior to the surgery I worked out two hours a day, 5-6x/week and was in really good shape. I always ate more than the average person, but I burned it off. Just prior to and after the surgery, I kept eating but couldn't exercise, so you know what happens there. I gained 25 lbs and was so depressed, which made me eat even more. Talk about bursting out of clothes. Ugh. I had tried Jenny Craig but couldn't stand the frozen foods will all that junk in them. Yesterday I went to a WW meeting and I really like the system. I decided on the points "flex" system and really think this will be a perfect way for me to eat more sensibly. Plus, I can eat *real* food. I'm not kidding myself that this will be easy at first, but I have a feeling it will get easier after the first week or so. That's my story. I'll be visting frequently to read all your stories too for motivation.

I'm looking forward to getting back to my normal size. It's been a journey for me recovering from this surgery, figuring out what I can and can't do as far as exercise, and now I'm working on healthy eating. I plan on being successful. Not "trying to" but "planning on". I'm sure I'll be needing everyone's support in the future. Thanks for being there!

I was planning on posting my results each week. Just another way for me to keep motivated. Last night I made the garden vegetable soup. Yum! It's perfect for me at night when I'm more inclined to want to munch. I had a bowl of it last night and it satisfied me.
