Weight Watchers?

How many of us are weight watchers? I don’t mean the diet plan. I mean how many of us actually watch our weight? I’ve watched my weight for years…Generally that means I’ve watched it go up. I usually watch what I eat also…Generally; I watch it go from my plate to my mouth.

Am I heavy? Sure I’m heavy not what I would consider excessively so. I still get out and move around, despite a few extra pounds, and I’ve never been much of a runner so a few extra pounds doesn’t hurt much there. I’ve been doing a lot of yard work lately. I finished a retaining wall out of natural stone that I picked up off our land, and I’ve finished several flower beds and filled them with nice soil that we had to have shipped in (flowers don’t much like to grow in rocks). My blood pressure is still great and so long as my seasonal allergies aren’t bother me I feel great. I guess what I’m trying say is if you can still do the things you want and still feel good doing them what do a few extra pounds hurt? You can always tell people you’re trying “plate watchers” just to see their expression.
