Weight Watchers

On Thursday I started Weight Watchers. This is now my second run at weight watchers. For whatever reason, I am struggling this time. Greatly. Yesterday was a very rough day for me. I was emotional. Starving. Angry. I wanted to give up right then and there. I don't know what this time is harder. Is it because I weigh more? Is it because I have something else going on subconsciously that I am unaware of? I don't want to be around people because I feel like everything and anything we talk about revolves around food and points. This damn point system. I called my mom yesterday because I needed to talk to someone who would listen. Who would help me try to find a solution. Who would remind me that it's going to be okay. The minute I started talking to her, tears flooded my eyes. I was so desperate for food. Desperate for a solution to make this hunger and struggle go away. My downfall I think when I get this desperate or depressed is to eat. Unfortunately, I can't do that. I do understand that in the long run this is better for me and my future. But it is a struggle. And a very hard one.

I'm no expert... but I think an eating plan where you are starving and miserable is not the right one for you. I'm all for eating healthy, but only if it's something you are going to stick with in the long run! Aren't there other (more suitable) options? I would never in a million years be able to survive on the small portions of weight watchers. I don't know how anyone does. This comment doesn't sound like a very supportive one, but it really is in disguise! I want you to find something that works AND makes you happy!

The first couple of weeks are the hardest, but you'll come through and there will be days where you'll have to force yourself to eat more. Good luck. I'm proud of you.
