I'm not an influencer. I'm not a famous blogger. I don't have endorsements.
I'm a normal everyday person that wants to lose weight; that needs to lose weight.
But I'm always starting over. I'm always failing and starting over.
No one is going to be influenced by me; look me up everyday to read; nor want me to endorse their product.
I'm just me and I bet there are more of you like me, then not.
Remember when WW would have celebrities endorse their program? The celebrities would be the spokesperson after they lost the weight. I could never understand why we didn't see the whole celebrity journey rather than just the aftermath.
I was never encouraged by a celebrity's weight loss. Why? Because they have options the rest of us don't: nutritionists, cooks, personal trainers, etc.. You know what I'm talking about!
I always thought WW should choose normal everyday people of various ages and sizes and then do the commercials about them, from start to finish. The people who have to cook their own meals; the people who can not afford a gym membership; the people like me and you. Oh, I know there were commercials with regular WW members - but it was after the fact - you had to have lost the weight to be in a commercial.
I use to read the blog of one person who had been in a WW commercial. When she started to put weight back on; she stopped her blog. I was sad because that's the part of the journey I really needed the help with. I guess she thought she had failed and didn't deserve to lead anymore. I couldn't disagree more.
Last post, I challenged whomever may read here to start a walking challenge. We're a week in already, and I haven't done one walk. I've failed; but I haven't stopped.
To those who actually are doing the challenge - Congratulations!
To those like me - keep moving forward, never look back!
