In my office, 6 women (including myself) are doing the WW meetings. The rest of the people doing it are in the other building.
Today a couple of the ones in my office were talking about the program. LP was saying that she feels like she's just stopped caring about it. AK agreed with her. AK said that she did really well the first two weeks then lost momentum and now find that she can't really compell herself to really work at it.
LP says "But "baronessekat" has been doing really well on it." AK looked at me and asked how I was doing (she missed the weigh in this week) and I said "about 12 pounds." Both look me over and nod. AK said "I bet you're one of those annoying ones who measures and weighs everything and keeps a detailed track of everything you eat."
I kinda shrugged and said "Not really." and walked away. It hurt you know. Just because I found a program that works for my metabolism and stuff it's like I'm some ... Stephanie/STepford Wife kinda thing.
I only measure something if I'm not too sure on my eyeball guess, or if it's something new that I'm making. And of course I tract everything I eat. HOw else are you to know if you met your points or went over it? How else are you going to teach yourself better habits?
Why the hell should I be made to feel guilty because I'm actually succeeding? Why am I the big bad because I'm actually doing the program and following the suggestions on what to do to lose weight?
I actually get proactive about my health and try to do something good for a change rather than complain about it and I get made to feel like navel lint.
You know what? fuck them. I am going to continue to suceed and make my short term goal in the next two weeks. I'm going to make my long term goal by pennsic. I'm going to make this work and not let those whiney bitches steal my sunshine. (Besides... they can't steal him. I flushed him two days ago)

You know what, honey. I'm really proud of how you've been working on this program. It hasn't been easy, and even when there has been temptation and stuff, you've stuck to what you want to do.
Shit, next time they bring it up, you just shrug and say, "Yeah, 12lbs ago I already looked better than you do. Don't stress about it. You can't keep up."
This method is good for you, it makes you feel good, and it lets you feel in control of something that is good for you. You win, you win, you win.
We'll make you a poster for your cube, "You can't steal my sunshine, I flushed him days ago." Then we'll get you little "looser quitter whiner" pins for you to give with those bitches who feel better about their pathetic selves by looking down on how totally good and hard-working you are.
