Yvette’s Accomplishment

March 14th, 2008 Comments off

I love and will continue loving my wife no matter how she looks. Yvette has had a personal struggle with weight for most of her adult life. While I love her just the way she looks, she has not been happy. She also recognizes that her weight has made it harder for her to manage her diabetes.

Several months ago, Yvette joined Weight Watchers. She attended her regularly weekly meetings, incorporated point counting and exercise into her daily life, and was seeing a slow stead weight loss. Over the last two months, life got in the way, and Yvette had not been able to make a meeting. On Thursday night she attended her weekly meeting, the first in a while. She was nervous, but had not reason to be. Since her previous meeting she has lost 8 lbs with a total weight loss of 23 lbs since joining Weight Watchers!

I could not be more proud of her and her accomplishment. We have already seen improvments in her health and look forward to the day when she can stop taking insulin.
