This battle of obesity is nothing more than a game of tug of war gone wrong. Every time I think I got a handle on this disease something happens to let me know I am not in charge and in fact this disease is bigger than me. Sadly,I slip into defeat more than I care to admit. However, lately I've been thinking about the future obesity causes so many health problems which I know oh to well.
I have high blood pressure and now canankles and my poor feet has to hold all this up.
My feet swell up and it takes many pit stops before I can keep moving. Knowing all this should make me stay on the path and eat healthy right. That is where the tug of war comes in.Even though I know I should do right I do wrong. And it is a constant back and forth and back and forth and it drives me straight to more food.
I've written about my desires to do it on my own and that my blogging was my accountability and that I did not want to pay anyone else to help me lose the weight and turn around and gain it all back again. Well I have to be the first to say I have had a change of heart. So the first of the year I am going to join Weight Watchers. I don't know if this is the answer I've been looking for but surely it will be a change of pace.
What made me change my mind you may ask? The answer is I am killing myself and I just can't take it anymore.
I also know that it is still up to me.. I have to put in the energy and the work to stay healthy not just for a day or a week but for a lifetime. Yeah I have thought about all that too. So for the many times I bash a weight loss program that you have to pay please note it was merely because of the ones that I joined that left me broke and depending on them solely. So WW here I come ......... I hope your ready for me.
