This month I am beginning a new life journey. I am traveling from "morbidly obese middle aged grandma" to "healthy and fit way-too-cool grandma."

The vehicle that is taking me on this journey is Weight Watchers. I've had some success with it in the past. Of all the programs available it makes the most sense.

I've made some progress already. I've had some stressful days at work recently and twice this week surprised myself by doing something else to comfort myself than reaching for food. This is a huge, huge victory for me. For years I was aware of my propensity to eat my feelings, but now I'm beginning to do things like take a brisk walk to cool off my irritation, or reach for music (mp3) when I can't get away from the computer at that moment (due to a fast-approaching deadline.)

Maybe this weekend I'll get some "before" pics taken. I'll post them when I've made some progress to boast about.

Stay tuned!
