Hi,

Well tonight i joined Weight Watcher, hoping that their new "switch" plan was the miricle i have been waiting years and years for!!

However..... (as there always is with diets!!).... i was greated by an over sized (ok lets be honest she was probably about 4 stone at least over weight), grumpy old lady who explained that she had herself lost 8 stone 18 years ago. She explained that the extra food we eat we do indeed not need (what? they are paying you to tell me that?). She explained also that we should all be doing at least one hour of physical activity a day (and no apparently reaching for the chocolate digestives repeatedly for an hour whilst watching Eastenders and Corrie doesnt count, shame though!!). I was sooo tempted to ask what activity she often partisipates in (just to watch her blush as she attempted to blag her large bum out of that one!!). But ofcourse i didnt!! That would have been rude!!

In all fairness the diet looks wonderful (well, as wonderful as being starving can be). And i will certainly give it my best shot. But what i need to know is how others feel about dieting and what has worked for them. Am i being too unkind and scepticle? Anyway... time to go comfort eat now!!

Will keep you posted as to my weight loss, inch loss (and im sure personality loss too if im not careful!!)
