Live-it

I joined Weight Watchers online yesterday. There's something about making a commitment, and paying money to do it, that is motivating to me somehow. I've been hungry, but not overly so, and I'm pretty excited to be taking this concrete step to do something about my weight. My goal is to lose 18 pounds, and to not find them again.

While at the gym yesterday, I caught some of the Today show. From what I could tell by the captions, one guest had lost more than 100 pounds, with another 20 to go. She said she did it not by following a diet, but by deciding to "live-it" -- thinking of her commitment to healthy living as a way of life, not a temporary fix. I like that idea very much.
