First day of Weight Watchers

[sam73]

Hi everyone. Congrats to all who have lost this week. I weighed in today and I lost 3.5 pounds, yeah. Keep up the hard work everyone.

[Sea Fan]

Sam, That's so great! Now didn't you say you were bummed last week because you stayed the same. Aren't you glad you stuck with it.

CONGRATULATIONS!! You deserve it.

Cheryl, Sorry I forgot to reply to you. Wow you gave up chocolate cake, I don't know if I could do that. Happy Birthday late, I hope you weren't sick on that day. I'm always looking for comfort food when I don't feel well so stay stong.

 

Judy~We are just alike regarding the snacks, some days I will stay with in the points but it's nothing healthy. When I do that I rarely have a loss that week. Take care of that foot, don't you have to push against something with a rowing machine? Would that bother your foot.

Hi,

Lost 2.2 pounds. So far 9.6lbs. Went for a 4 mile bike ride this morning too.

:)

[Sea Fan]

Okay Tara, I'm rubbing elbows with you for luck!! Way to go, especially with that 4 mile bike ride. I can't tell you how much I admire that.

Dianne

[JP46]

Wow! Everyone is doing fantastic. Congratulations.

 

Diane, hopefully the rowing wouldn't bother the foot that much, since it's not load bearing.(and I have a load to bear!:D )

 

Hey Cheryl, I give you a lot of credit to refuse cake! Ask Jalakim. I'd run over you to get a piece of birthday cake.

 

Keep up the good work gang.

Judy

Hello everyone and congrats on all the weight loss! I need to check here more than once a week..it gets alittle confusing on what everyone is up too.

Well, today was the day..down 3lbs. Week 4..gone 12.8 lbs. I'm starting to think I can do this..just not looking at the big (and I mean big! LOL) picture. Taking one week at a time..April will be here before you know it. You know how that goes..cruise time rolls around and you think why didn't I try harder to lose my weight.

Thanks again for all the encouragement.

Michelle

[Sea Fan]

Michelle, your doing so well and your right just one week at a time. If I did more I know I would give up. It's the small goals we are going for. I'm also aiming for April.

hi everyone,

 

Weighed in tonight instead of tomm morn. i was really surprised that I lost 2.2. Thats a total of 14.2 since Aug. 12th.!!! I am excited. Didn't think I did good. When I was sick iIdidn't exercise at all. Think we will go out to dinner tonight since didn't get to do that for my birthday on tuesday when I was sick. Start my tracker for nthis week tomm morning.

 

Set in final payment for the cruise today, so reality has set in, got to get up and move, move ,move! Have a great weekend and week everyone.

 

Cheryl :)

[Sea Fan]

Yeah Cheryl, Your doing something right! I weigh in later tonight so I will let you guys know.

Enjoy your dinner.

 

Dianne

[JP46]

Congrats to Cheryl and Michelle! You guys are doing great.

 

I weighed in today with a 1.4 loss. I'm a happy woman. I've been wearing the same outfit every Saturday to weigh in, and today when I got dressed, the capris were a bit baggy in the behind and the blouse was a bit sloppy. Think I'll shrink them in the dryer. Feels good!

 

I know I shouldn't celebrate with food, but I'm looking forward to some Baked Lays and the new Poseidon movie?

Judy

[Sea Fan]

Judy, That's so wonderful, I do the same thing wear the same outfit they are probably getting tired of seeing me in it:D . I had a gain .2, 2/10ths of a pound guess I better get exercising more.

 

Have a good one every body.

 

Dianne

[JP46]

Diane, .2 in my opinion, is as close to staying the same as you can get! I'm sure next week will show a loss.

 

Unfortunately I got carried away with the Baked Lays chips, last night.:eek: I won't be buying those again for awhile. Salads here I come!

 

Have a great week gang!

Judy

[1st time crusier]

Dianne,

 

I agree with Judy. A gain of .2 is like staying the same. Don't be to concerned. Just look forward to next weigh in and all we can do is try our best. God job Judy, good job everyone. No matter what the scale says it doesn't look like anyone is giving up. Thats what really matters! Have a great week everyone.

 

Cheryl :)

Hi All,

 

Sorry I haven't posted in a few weeks. :o My weigh in day was on Labor Day, so no meeting and then my MIL came to visit and things have been very hectic. I have weighed in tonight and lost 2.2 lbs plus 1.4 last week so I over the moon. :D

 

Judy, Michelle, Cheryl and Diane...Great job. :D

 

Kim

[mousy56]

Great job everyone! No quitters here! :-) It was a rough weekend for me.

Michelle

[1st time crusier]

Thanks everyone for all the support. Don't think I would be doing well without all of you!!!;)

[Sea Fan]

Kim~Good to see you back, glad your doing so well . Keep it up!!

 

Michelle~ Your not alone, tough Sunday for me too. So now we start again.

 

Cheryl~Trust me, we wouldn't be doing well with out your support also. Keep smiling.

Went to meeting last night. It was a party to celebrate 10 years of the points system.

 

Now I know that last week's 2.5lb loss was a fluke, due to not having my evening meal before class...........

And I know that I have just spent 3 days near Paris staying with a host twin-town lovely lady, had no control of what I was offered to eat and on Saturday night, dinner was at 11.30pm after the show, but............

 

A 3 lb gain!!!!

 

Back on veggie soup today.

 

Cinnamon

[Sea Fan]

Cinnamon, Maybe not... I thought I gained 4 pounds after a big weekend. But after 3 day's I had lost 3 which is pretty impossible to do so I think alot was water. Don't give up it will go away!

 

Dianne

[JP46]

Cinnamon, Diane is right. Probably a lot of fluid retention and 3 days in Paris. (By the way, I'll take a gain for 3 days in Paris!!:D) Hang in there!

 

This is a great support system. Lots of positive vibes. Maybe someday we'll get a WW cruise going, so we can meet each other.

Hi Everyone! I just joined Weight Watchers yesterday. Actually, I've coordinated an At Work program. We will be meeting every Monday during the lunch hour. It was a lot of fun! The scale was intimidating.

 

Over the past 2 days, I've had a hard time eating my full 24 points. I'm sure you don't want to hear this but maybe if I list what I've had, somone can help me bulk it up a bit.

 

Breakfast (I hate breakfast): 2 plums = 1 point

Lunch: Turkey Wrap with Bacon, lettuce, cucumber, and mustard = 5 points

Snack: Tiger's Milk protein bar = 3 points

 

So far I'm at 9 points with 15 more to eat at dinner :eek: plus I walk 30-40 min. a day and from what I've learned I'll have to start adding points because of this by the 3rd week...

 

I'm way off, I know, and am in need of some serious guidance :confused:

[Uconnfan]

I lost 4.2 Lbs this week. I really am getting into what is offered at my local YMCA. I get a discount through work and use the cardio machines, yogo and the 25 yard lap pool. So far 14.2 lbs off. Lots more to go.

[jalakim]

AloahPride,

 

I too am having trouble getting the full points in. They told me to stop using lite products and the weight watchers bread. Breakfast is key. I know, I know, I hate eating breakfast, but I am forcing myself to have something. You could have a bagel and cream cheese and there you have 8 points!!! Another option is toast with peanut butter. Great energy boost also. Food doesn't have to be "diet" food. Everything has a point value so if you have to eat something high in points to make your total...eat it. I finally ate my quota of points last week...fully ready to prove my leader wrong...and I had the best loss in weeks. The only one proved wrong was me. Also the exercise points do NOT have to eaten. That is also a plus.

 

Keep in touch. this is a great place to find support. We have a great group here, and don't forget to let us know how your week went.:D
