I went to a WW meeting last night. I'm very happy with it. The leader is from Argentina and has the cutest accent. From my little time with her, I can tell she takes people's weight loss adventure seriously. She sends out newsletters and supposedly has a blog which I haven't found yet. At my weigh in she told me she'd get me to goal. I hope so.
I have a little bit of frustration, and I'm sure some of it is my fault. I feel like no one takes my mission seriously. And its probably because I started and stopped a million times over the past two years. But little jokes about it really get to me. I don't need someone to be all "there, there, Sarah" on me but my meetings and times on the computer at this point is just about as important as it is for an alcoholic to go to meetings every day. I have enough power to make my own decisions, but, using the AA meetings again, it wouldn't make much sense to joke about their attempts to stay clean. My addiction and my comfort is food.
I'm going to get to lifetime. I'm going to meetings to see my new Argentinian friend and use her emails, newsletters, blog, and support to get me there.

I am sending you thumbs up.
Just found your blog; would love to help support you, even though I'm not Argentinean. LOL! Hang in there...you CAN do this! :)
Well, Sunny, I don't know if you will work out if you don't have an accent. Work on a fake one and we'll see what kind of support system we can work out later :P
