Leading my Favorite Meeting for a Day

My Tuesday night buddies! This photo was taken at our first 5K in June 2009

The Weight Watchers meeting that I faithfully attended was on Tuesday night. Now that I work for Weight Watchers, I am a receptionist at that same Tuesday night meeting.

There are several reasons why I chose to work this meeting. First, I love working with my leader Amanda, she is the best! Second, it fit in my schedule nicely, because I have devoted Tuesday evenings to Weight Watchers for a few years now. Finally, I love the Tuesday evening Weight Watchers members. It is a joy to be able to continue to see my Weight Watchers friends on Tuesday evening. I have met so many great people at my Weight Watchers meeting. I love being able to continue to cheer them on as they try their best to reach their own weight loss goals. Some of these people remember what I looked like when I first started Weight Watchers and they are always willing to remind me about how far I have come.

Tonight, I am going to have the privileged of leading my very favorite Weight Watchers meeting!! You see, my leader Amanda is gone on vacation this week and she asked me to sub for her while she is gone. It took me no time at all to decide that I could not pass up to opportunity.

I am so excited!! It’s hard to believe that I have grown this much in the last few years. When I first started Weight Watchers it was hard to believe that I could lose 5 pounds, but God. The Lord has done some much more in me and through my weight loss than I ever expected. It’s so humbling.

Please pray for me and that I will not be too nervous leading this meeting.

How exciting! I'll pray for you today.
Tuesday evening is also my WW night. For years it was Wednesday morning 10am. Without fail. My leader then...I absolutely LOVED her. To pieces.
I didn't think I'd ever find another leader I liked as much. I actually went through many leaders. Some I couldn't stand. One I liked but didn't love to death.
Then when I started my Tuesday night meetings - I was VERY skeptical about the leader. Over the last year and 3 months, I have grown to love her so much it almost makes me cry. She is just absolutely the best. And I'm thankful that God had me run into her.
