Having a hard time this week- making some very questionable choices. What is up with that??
Jessie: hope you had a great thanksgiving and hope Sam had a happy 11th birthday.
Have a great week everyone!

The weather is changing here and I think that might have had something to do with it......Did I just hear someboday out there say "Nice try!" ?

Have a good one!
Maybe like Disney it won't be as bad as you think. I usually cook for thanksgiving but it's just the four of us. We were going to go to Washington DC for thanksgiving but DD wants to stay home so I can cook and do all our thanksgiving traditions. Then since my dad is doing better I asked if my parents would like to come down from NJ. Since my dad can no longer drive we will fly them here. So, I will have a house full this year which probably means more food than normal.
I wanted to do a trip report for our trip to Disney World last month. I took lots of notes while I was there and now I have a 30+ page Word document. I know some of you on this thread have done TR's before and I'm wondering if you would mind sharing how you decided what information to put in your report. I want to add pictures as well and my TR will be just way too long by the time it's finished if I leave it the way it is. I'd appreciate hearing any tips you've got.
One thing I was thinking that I could do is write a Trip Report and a Dining Report but I'm thinking that I'm not as good at describing food and how it tasted and what everyone's reaction was like some of the writers are.

I don't do trip reports but I do read some, so I'll give you my opinions, if you don't mind.
I like trip reports that give just a day or half day at a time posted every few days. That gives us followers a chance to comment and for the OP to respond. There are some trip reports I have been following for months.
Some people like to change the names of the family members, others don't. That doesn't really matter to me. But I do like a brief intro to the people who are on the trip so I feel like I "know" them.
Since you would be writing from a WW perspective, I think your daily food pics would fit right in with the flow of your TR (instead of doing a separate report).
There's my thoughts, for what they are worth.
I don't spend a lot of time on the trip report boards, so I usually prefer the ones that are indexed at the beginning so I can just see some of the highlights if that's all I have time for.
For the dining report, don't worry too much about the words, pictures speak volumes! Rating systems are also good when it comes to food.
Thanks!

I have been having such trouble lately that I wanted a fresh start TODAY. So, I went to WW to do my WI and face the ugly music. I was telling one of my favorite receptionists how I was frustrated and needed a new beginning. She explained that they could "re-set" me so that today's weight would be my starting weight, that I would get a new book starting with today, and that I wouldn't see, on paper or e-tools, the gain I've had over the last few weeks. I said "sign me up!" I've been doing this round of WW for a few years and never thought to really start over.
I am now 11 pounds from goal. I think this fresh start is just what I need to move in the right direction again. I'm crossing my fingers anyway!
Congrats to all the losers and to the maintainers -- and everyone else who is trying!!! Let's do this thing.
I did the exact same thing 5 weeks ago! Instead of trying to claw back to where I was and getting depressed by seeing a positive number in the Total field, I get to see a negative number which makes me feel good about myself. It was so nice to receive a 5-lb star at my last meeting. It's funny how motivated we are by stickers, LOL.I have been having such trouble lately that I wanted a fresh start TODAY.
