Happy New Year!

Dear Weight Watchers Friends,

Well, Christmas has come and gone--although, seriously, I keep thinking it's still a few days in the future. It seemed to come and go so quickly. I hope you all had a wonderful, memorable Christmas and that you're ready to embrace 2009!

By the way, it's Tuesday night and I'm going through "Weight Watchers" withdrawal. I'm definitely enjoying watching "The 31st Annual Kennedy Center Honors," but I have to admit I'm missing connecting with you. I felt a little bit lost tonight when I didn't get to see you. I'm certainly looking forward to seeing you next Tuesday night. Can you believe that it'll already be the 6th of January?

Hey, have you seen any of the new Weight Watchers commercials on television? I saw my first one tonight and I was very impressed! I can tell you one thing--hunger isn't going to win with ME either because I know how to conquer it now, and I will. Thank goodness we have the Momentum Plan. I love learning more and more about the importance of eating filling foods, making wise food choices, and tracking. I have every confidence that we're each going to WIN this battle.

How have you done during this holiday season? Have you struggled a bit, perhaps felt a little out of control, or have you stayed strong and expect to see great results when you weigh in next Tuesday night? Whatever your situation, I can't wait to get together and share, help each other, and watch the pounds melt away! We're going to reach goals, we're going to succeed, and we're going to win in 2009. It's OUR year.

Thank you to those of you who have kept in touch. I love hearing from you.

See you soon, my friends,

Debra

P.S. Joe, I can't exercise for less than 63 minutes, my friend! Thanks for the inspiration.
