Hello, Weight Watchers! If you were able to attend a meeting last week, did the Healthy Habits quiz give you some insight? Part of the Weight Watchers program is to work on our habits so that we can maintain the weight we’ve worked so hard to lose, and the new materials will help you to do just that. 2008 is a fresh, clean QuikTrak journal – how will you fill it?
WEIGHT WATCHERS WANTS YOU!
Are you interested in employment that involves helping others, a discount on Weight Watchers products, and motivation and support to maintain your loss? If so, Weight Watchers may be the place for you! Open Information sessions are open to any current member, whether you are currently at goal or not. This is a great opportunity to find out what we’re all about in a no-stress, no-obligation environment. To RSVP, please call (317) 826-8082.

WHY WEIGH?
If I had a nickel for every time I’ve heard, “I knew I gained this week, so I skipped the meeting,” well, I certainly wouldn’t be working for Weight Watchers any more! I know that it can be hard to face the music, and I certainly encourage you to use your No Weigh-In pass if seeing a certain number would prevent you from attending the meeting, but I really prefer to know what’s going on than imagine the worst. You weigh what you weigh whether you use the tool of the scale to tell you the number or not. I know that number holds a lot of meaning, but the scale doesn’t know what challenges you had this week. That number does not define whether you are a good person or even necessarily whether you made good or bad choices. Check out this article for some ideas for non-scale ways to measure your progress.
NEW PRODUCTS COMING SOON!
Make sure to hit a meeting the second and fourth weeks of January. We will be offering samples of our two newest products – Peanut Butter Bliss Mini Bars and Sourdough Pretzel Thins. I’ve tried the Peanut Butter Bliss bars and they are YUMMY! Only one Point and perfect for that peanut butter cup craving. I’ll try the pretzels soon and review them for you.
ARTICLES OF NOTE
For many of us, the preceding months have been hectic – filled with obligations, celebrations, travel, errands, and parties. This week, we’re going to Relax, Recuperate, and Refocus and discuss what we can do in the coming weeks, including the Taking Care of Yourself Healthy Habit.
Have a great week, everyone!
