I did time with Weight Watchers years ago and lost what I wanted to and then promptly fell off the wagon and gained it all back again. Right now we're trying the 'no potato/no bread' routine in hopes that might take off a little bit without all the having to figure out food values and calories and such. It's hard, because I love both potatoes and good bread but it's not as difficult as I thought it was going to be. Mind you, if somebody waved a piece or three of artisan bread in front of my nose I'd plummet to earth with a resounding thump!Magpie's Mumblingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09852241848575954128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4814262528756246837.post-36905484634158153582017-06-28T05:20:00.046-06:002017-06-28T05:20:00.046-06:00Way to go!

WeightWatchers is the ...Hi! Boy have I been absent!<br />WeightWatchers is the best thing! I belong, although I haven't gone for a while. After I lost two of my dogs, I just couldn't be around people. I couldn't stand for anyone to give me that knowing look, it would have devastated me, and I knew that they all knew why I wasn't there. I just have to brave myself up and go back, perhaps this next meeting on Thursday. I haven't gained much in my absence, I really have been trying to stick to my plan.<br />I love the Crayon quilt! It looks fantastic!<br />That is something else I can't make myself start up again. My daughter was here for a visit, then I lost the dogs, then my other daughter came and she and her boyfriend started on the "catio". They are coming again this weekend...so sewing hasn't happened! For months! I am so behind it's pathetic! I have tried a couple of times, I have just lost the mojo. It will come back, and then I can show you all my pretties!<br />How is Bruce doing?claudiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16572555442321120647noreply@blogger.com
