Rainy Saturday
I've been inspired today, feeling sick and a bit cranky, so here goes:
Mary's Top 5 List of Annoyances At a Weight Watcher Meeting:
5. Members who get there late and are really LOUD while the meeting has already started nearby.
4. Members who think the meeting is all about THEM and noone else.
3. Members who bring their kids and don't keep them quiet, or don't leave when they start acting up.
2. WW staff who are unorganized; leaders who start the meeting late (like we have nothing better to do than sit there and wait).
And the Number one annoyance is......
Weighers who say dumb things at the scale.
And I've heard so many! I wish weighers would just say nothing when you gain. It's like at a funeral. There is no correct thing to say that will make us feel better. If I gained, just be quiet and let me wallow in my failings. Believe me, if I have a question, I'll ask.
I burst into tears at my meeting last week. God, can you say hormones???? I guess...or because I was getting sick, but usually a gain doesn't bother me that much. But, it was a three pound gain. My weigher says, "but look how far you've come" which is great and all, but doesn't change the fact that I just gained a whopping three pounds. One pound sure fine, I can deal, but three...just leave me the hell alone.
But actually I've been doing pretty well lately, last week's Easter gain put aside. I actually weighed in the week before at 200 and a half, which is why the gain was so brutal. I'm so close to the land of weighing less than 200 I can taste it. And I just bought some new roller blades, and roller skates for my husband. Would love to get some for the dog, but I think that only works in that Jeanne Garafolo movie....
Tonight is my friends 30th birthday. I had that honor a couple years ago, sad to say. Should be a fun night out, I have only used 5 bonus points so far, so I am not too worried about staying OP. I wonder if beer is good for colds?
