Thread: dreading the weekly meeting

Hi all,

I just joined SW last week, but I was not impressed with the meeting. I hate the fact that the leader announces to everyone how much you have or haven't lost, then asking what you have or haven't done etc....I'm sticking to it great and hopefully will lose, but even if I lose I'm afraid I won't be staying afterward for the meeting. Not everyone wants everyone else to know their loss/gain. It's personal to you. I'm a background sort of person. It puts me off.

Why don't you just say to her then on the QT?

You shouldnt have to dread going. You'll miss the group and counsellor support if you do.

Thanks I will have a word with her.....I like hearing the tips people have but I'm just not a speaking in public person. Thank you for replying x

I know what you mean about speaking in a group. I'm quite shy and was mortified when I won slimmer of the week and had to speak about my week. Luckily I've got over my nerves now and quite enjoy it. I'd definitely speak to your C and see if you can be missed out so that you can stay to group. Good luck huni, X
