Paying For Weight Loss is Paying Off
Posted on August 08, 2007 by Her and tagged health
This year I spent about $150 to join Weight Watchers, and that has helped me to lose about 10 pounds in 6 weeks. I know, I know, losing weight is just about eating less and exercising more. But previously, I was never successful at losing more than 5 pounds on my own. Without a comprehensive plan it was like playing whack-a-mole at mealtime. I consider this to be some of the best money I have ever spent on anything! I have learned a lot of new good habits that I can use forever. I am also using the gym regularly now, so I'm getting good value out of my gym membership. Losing weight has proved to be expensive, but it is finally paying off. I feel great!

You might be able to get that $150 back, too! Check with your health insurance provider. I know that Blue Cross/Blue Shield will often reimburse up to $150 for going on a diet plan.
Good luck!
Some things are worth spending on, and your health and wellbeing is one of them. I also think that another way it pays off is in the sense that when I am well I have more energy for saving money. For example, the nights I buy dinner and take it home are usually ones where I feel too tired to cook. If I'm fitter I have lots of energy for doing the stuff that is harder work but saves money.

Congrats on the weight loss. It's hard, I know.
It sounds like money well spent.
