Don't you love the start of a good week. It doesn't matter that it is minus whatever, and your nipples have frozen over on your way to work. You wake up Sunday morning you get on the scale you lose 1.7 lbs and it just starts everything off right. This week I'm determined to ride the wave. To continue walking with a skip in my step and flip in my long red hair. (Which I straightened yesterday, and with the great outfit and awesome make up...but I digress.) Needless to say there is something great about losing weight, having a great hair day and just feeling alive that we need to bottle up for those bad days, or bad weeks. I wish we could hit a button and just remember this feeling or go to this happy place, cause, frankly it is freaking awesome!
I guess this is the honeymoon phase. Again. I've had many WW marriages and divorces. We are like the couple that just keeps breaking up and getting back together. It's starts off great. WW is perfect for me. We compliment eachother's lives. It fits, perfectly everything seems to be running in unison. WW gives me points values and I count them. I lose weight and we celebrate together, skipping along like two happy lovers. But like all relationships for some reason things break down. Sometimes you do everything in your power and the scale just doesn't budge. You look at WW, they are sympathetic. But you are not having it. Or those times when the points values are just too high and you're like but it's a wedding, a birthday, a life changing moment! Give it a rest. Things get rocky. WW continues on unphased and you are moving away in another direction. You grow apart. You break up.
Then in a moment of despair. You look back and you think about how great things were. Maybe you remember this day, the start of one of your good weeks. Your honeymoon days. You remember what a great person you were in that relationship. How you loved yourself and who you were becoming. You go back to WW with your head down a bit embarrassed. WW always takes you back, never judges, never scolds. They just look at you and smile, and say "Hey it's great to have you back, we missed you!"
Then just like that you are back together. Love is in the air again. Just in time for spring and cute little spring dresses and sandles. I can't wait!
