Melissa’s Triumph!My name is Melissa and I am a member (and recent
employee) of WW in Meridian, Idaho.
I have done WW (and every other program in the book)
multiple times. This last time though something clicked!
I have lost 80 lbs and feel amazing. I have not been this
weight since 8th grade. I believe the key to my success
was not putting an end date on this journey. Signing up
for the LAST time was my commitment to a life journey of
eating healthy and the weight loss was a side effect.
I LOVE WW, LOVE my meeting and LOVE my leader Kari!
One tip that I have is to always track, everything. Another
is to never let yourself get hanger. I carry healthy 1 or 2
point snacks with me always just in case! Thank goodness
for light string cheese and bananas! I also have loved to
try new recipes I see on Connect, there is such a variety!
Last but not least, when I found myself feeling complacent,
I was led to the podcast “Whys Advice” and it has been a
game changer for me! Having that is like a mini meeting
everyday while I do my walk.

Today is another day
to get back on track!
There are small victories that will lead to your WIN!This month our staff at Weight Watchers of Salt Lake
City share their own words of wisdom for achieving
their small victories. Come back each month to get
new tips you can use on your journey.
Savor every bite: Eat favorite foods slowly, giving full
attention to the aroma, taste, and texture. Mindfully
pleasurable eating can help cut the risk of overdoing
it‑in part because it also gives the body time to signal
to the brain it’s had enough. – Leader
Remember that the scale is only one measure of
progress and success. Reflect on the healthy changes
you’ve made to your eating patterns and your lifestyle.
Celebrate these non‑scale victories while you wait for
the scale to catch up. – Leader
The next time you’re struggling, picture how you’d
treat a friend in the same situation, and treat yourself
the same way. – Leader
What you think determines how you feel, which
determines what you do. – Leader

Instead of reworking your entire day to carve out
large chunks of time for a trip to the gym, look for
ways you can be more active in your regular routine.
