SPECIAL DAY

The crowd was a bit thinner than usual at this morning's Weight Watchers groups - probably something to do with the heat and unbearable humidity - but it was a special day for me and I'll explain why.

In one of our groups we have a wonderful lady who is in the process of losing a substantial amount of weight and this past week or so has been huge for her - not just for success at the scale, but because she has managed to start walking again.

Her battle had left her seriously restricted for a long time, but having lost over 70lb already, she has now received a whole new lease of life by becoming more mobile.

She left us today to go out and buy good walking sneakers and I left a happy camper too.

It's why I do what I do!
