Right after Tami was born in 1968, I started Weight Watchers. I needed to get the extra weight off after my pregnancy. This was the best thing I could have done because I became a life time member of W.W.
Through the years, whenever I gained weight .......I knew how to take it off. I would go back to W.W. After our last daughter was born (Dadra) I really struggled keeping my weight under 200 pounds. I finally decided that I needed to record my DIET STRUGGLES AND TRIUMPHS in a book. I had my before pictures taken from the front and side. YIKES!
This book is hilarious and when I read it I often laugh. I did stop taking before pictures because it was too depressing. I started to take pictures of me thinner each month and this was more inspirational.
I often talk to myself, giving me advice or a pep talk. I have found that this has helped me a great deal through the years. I know that if I hadn't kept my weight under control, I would be at least 230 pounds by now.
I feel I could always lose a little more weight but I'm not complaining. I count my blessings!
