I am so sorry this is late, we just got back from helping son #1 pack and move to Austin TX.
Mom (me) lived, but it will be very lonely...even though he has been 350 miles away for 7 years. But...that's my reason for being late with homework.
First, today, I met three people who have been my anchors in Weight Watchers and on this journey to healthy. I didn't ever give it much thought until today. ONe was the son we moved, and the other two were women, who have been faithful WW'ers for a long time and are now back to stay on track. We don't talk about it much, but, they are part of the reason I stick with things...they lift me up, all three.
So I thought, who are your anchor people, people who lift you up, maybe just by being present or knowing that they have been down this path?
Second, Give yourself a break this weekend, breathe in the fresh air, take a walk, find some memories of people gone or still here. Thank them for being there for you. Enjoy the time that we have and prepare yourself for the coming weeks of summer; just relax.
Take care, have a safe weekend.
