Twenty-one has been a year of change for me. I am proud to say that I am finally in a steady, healthy relationship. Now you maybe thinking, wow this chick is really open about her love life. Slow down, this isn’t any normal relationship. There’s some history between us. Yes, that is right, I am back together with Weight Watchers.
I don’t know what drew me back – maybe it was Oprah as their new spokesperson or maybe it was the twenty pounds I gained while abroad. Whatever the reason, I decided to open myself up and make myself vulnerable again to Weight Watchers.
Weight Watchers made me recognize my flaws: I overate when I was bored, I overate when I was sad, and I overate when I wanted to celebrate (which was a lot more often than I thought – I like to be happy okay?)
But Weight Watchers also brought out the best in me. Weight Watchers (mostly Oprah) allowed me to see that I can still eat pasta and lose weight! I no longer had to deprive myself of my beloved carbohydrates and alcohol. No deprivation makes me a very happy Allie – because trust me, you do NOT want to see a fucking sucky Allie. She’s a bitch.
Now this may sound like Weight Watchers is paying me to write this article (they aren’t). But seriously, my eyes have been opened. It’s so nice to be in a relationship where the love is reciprocal. I give Weight Watchers my money and time and they give me back the tools I need to be even sexier – ok, thinner.
We did have a little tuff the other day. We had an argument about whether I should eat a slutty brownie or not. I didn’t — Weight Watchers makes me strong.
But who knows where we’ll be in a month or two? Okay, I do need them until Spring Break, but during vacation anything goes. I’m just putting that out there now.
I know you are all on the edge of your seats to know how this relationship is going to work out. For now, it will just have to remain a mystery.
