I’ve got a little problem with focus as those who know me personally can attest. Goal setting is not my problem–but prioritizing is. So I decided to combine a couple of my goals for the new decade and record my progress here. There may not be any obvious link between my attempt to lose many excess pounds and to actually finish some of the numerous weaving projects that are currently on my looms. However, I recently discovered a remote connection that may help me acheive both goals.
I’ve been a Weight Watchers member for some time now (I’m not saying how long.) And without that help I’d probably still be expanding in girth. One of the elements of the program is a connection between how much exercise you do and how much you eat. I’m not a lover of exercise for its own sake, as attested to by the treadmill that is currently being used as a laundry rack in the other room. But after actually getting some weaving done recently, I realized that my looms, especially the big ones could really be regarded as exercise equipment, if used every day for significant period of time.
So I’ve decided on a strategy of posting my week’s weaving accomplishments along with a count down that reflects my weight gain/loss for the week. I’m not tempted to tell you how much I weigh now, nor what my ultimate goal is…I’ll just let you wonder based on my weekly post.
So for today, I’ll set the counter to zero and post this picture of the cotton damask that I just finished….
