there's quite a bit they don't tell you, about how your life will change, when you join Weight Watchers. they don't tell you how difficult it is to eat in restaurants, how hard it is not to weigh yourself outside of the meetings, or that you should be prepared to have to go out and buy all new clothes once the pounds start coming off. the #1 most life impacting change (at least for me) is that once you start the program you are "required" to drink between 32 and 48 ounces of water each day. not a bad idea, right? i mean once you overcome your dislike for water (add some lemon! try Crystal Light!), how hard could it be? pretty fucking hard. not the drinking, mind you. drinking is easy; the hard part is having to urinate. every. 15. fucking. minutes.long car trips, subway rides, movies and remaining on the phone (on hold) for extended periods are a thing of the past. i haven't spent so much time in the men's room since...well...never mind that.
i am thin, gorgeous, and borderline incontinent.

And if, say, you do cardio at the gym and drink an _additional_ litre and a half, the subsequent hour yoga class becomes a not very zen battle between you and your bladder for dominance...
heh heh.
Welcome to the life of a teenage girl. Perpetually on a diet and following 3 rules: don't eat, drink water, get up at 5 am to do Jane Fonda's Weight Loss Workout. Did I say teenage? I meant my life today.
when i was true to my weight watchers diet i had to learn where all the nice public toilets were in nyc.
The worse thing about that is when the bathrooms are a mile away from where you work...so every ten or fifteen mintues you are walking by EVERYONE and everyone knows where you are going and think that you must have had some bad chicken or something...it's just..ugh...so embarassing.
Yeah. That's me. Every 4 weeks. Get the picture? I know, way too much information.
