…it’s a southern thing, my name is Angie and I have been riding the Weight Watchers train since June 26th this year. My first weigh-in was (yes, I am going to post my weight, if I am gonna be accountable then I.am.gonna.be.acountable!) 219.6 (gasp). I am 5′11″ and I really want to get down to at least 160, that might be pushing it, but we’ll see. So far, since my first weigh-in, I have lost 9.2 pounds. So now I weigh 210.4. I do attend the WW meetings on Monday evenings and love.them! So that is when I will be posting my weight loss! (Positive thinking guys!) They are very inspiring and motivating. Plus, I get lots and lots of good food find tips and yummy recipes.
- I want to feel better about myself (if momma ain’t happy then nobody is).
- I want more energy so I can hang out and play with my kids (15, 10, 8, & 6) while they are still young and want to play with me.
- I want to be healthy.
- I want to make better choices for myself and my kids, they learn from us ya know!
- I want to let go of my dependancy for food and depend more on God to fill me up.
So, there you have it, I have laid it all out there for ya. I am very excited about this. I look forward to learning different things about myself and gleaning knowledge from the rest of ya! Oh yeah, I blog over at Carolina Rags, come see me there too!
Go team!
Angie–we were introducing ourselves at the same time I think.
Looking forward to the journey with you!

I’ll get real with ya - so you won’t feel alone! I weigh 205 and am 5′2″ - so I’m actually more overweight than you are - so there!
So glad you’re joining us! Maybe we’ll just make Monday the official weigh in day for all of us. Marvelous Motivating Mondays we can call them! What do you think?

I’ll join you, too……I was 210.6 on the scale this morning. That’s down about 15 pounds from April, but still way too high. Glad to hear that WW is working out well for you!
