Roz is out

Our little mutiny works. 

Betsy, a gifted communicator, gets a call yesterday from someone at Weight Watchers.  They are replacing our leader, Roz, with a new person at this morning's meeting.

The word goes out.  Lots of emails are sent.  Many of us show up. 

I wonder what WW told Adriana, our new leader?

This is a tough group.  

Beware of these woman, they speak their minds.  

They are tight knit and organized.

They are smart.  

They have strong ideas.  

But collectively, they haven’t lost a lot of weight.  That’s why their first leader, the one they loved, was replaced.

They didn’t connect with the second leader, Roz, and staged a mini revolt, even having meetings in a member's home.  

They wanted their first leader back, but we can’t do that.  

They proposed another leader they loved but we can’t do that either.  

So we’ll give them you.  

Good luck.

But as it turns out, Adriana does a very good job.  She relates well to the group.  She understands that maintenance is as hard —maybe harder than— a big loss.  And she listens.

It’s a good meeting.  We are hopeful.  And maybe now we can all get back on track (pun intended).
