150.0. "How do you recapture the magic?" by CSC32::FORSMAN () Thu Nov 05 1987 23:52

This is for all those who have been Weight Watchers, on and off, and on and off,
and on and off...  

Five years ago I attended my first Weight Watchers meeting.  It was like love
at first sight!  I had no problem, or very little, staying on program and
quickly lost the 20 lbs. I needed to lose, and kept it off over a year.  Then
I started to gain, lose, gain, lose, etc.  Several times I have returned to
WW, but I've never been able to recapture the energy and motivation to stay
on program like I did 5 years ago.

I keep going back to WW, because I know it's the best way to go, but why
can't I follow through with it?  I'll start up, attend meetings for a month
or two, then stop going.  And I never stay ON program.

Anyone have any advise for a Lifetimer, who needs to lose the same 20 lbs,
just one more time??
