WI this week was successful. I lost 0.4 pounds. Whenever you have a loss it is a win!
The scale dial faces away from me at the center in Nampa I’ve been going
to these last few weeks. I can’t get a
photo but my weight was 185.0.
The meeting topic was “Small changes, Big
payoff” and was a really great topic. I
read a book, well part of it as I sort of lost interest in it, called “Water With
Lemons.” The book’s theme is about making
one small change. Change is overwhelming
and changing everything at once can cause you to quit. However, one small change makes you feel so good
it causes another change and the ripple effect occurs from there. The leader this week Trish, a sub for
Natalie, called it “The Butterfly Effect.”
The Butterfly Effect is a theory that a butterfly flapping its wings in
one area, overtime, can cause a typhoon in another area.
We shared examples of how one small change when
you first started your WW journey has grown into something larger at another time
in your journey. Tracking is a big
one. If you start by tracking your food
you become aware of what you are eating.
You will be able to reflect back on weeks that you lost so you can
re-create that and also on weeks you gained so you know what to do
differently. I started tracking from the
moment I joined WW and my Butterfly Effect is that I lost 130 pounds.
One small change yields big results.
Do you have the courage to take that one small
change and impact your life somewhere down the road?
