Weight Watchers Chat -- Part III

I made the baked chicken nuggets from the Skinny taste site tonight and they were SO good!!! My kids loved them! Much healthier than fried!

[KIRSTIN'S MOMMY]

I've already lost a pound since I joined WW a few days ago, I'm down 12 now! So excited to be seeing results I'm also working out at the YMCA daily, and have set a goal to do the Princess Half next year. Hope I can do it!

Thanks for the encouragement, I need all I can get!

Don't beat yourself up! We have all messed up one time or another. Heck, I even "rebooted" my starting weight more than once. That 6 pounds will come right off once you are back on program {{hugs}}.

Thanks Robin! I hope it comes off quickly.

Whew, finally getting back into the swing of things. My stomach thought it was being tortured with all the fruits and veggies, and with me not allowing it to lead me to whatever it wanted, LOL. Now, I was lucky in that I had a loss of .4 on Saturday (compared to my last proper Saturday weigh-in before vacation), but I know very well that if I'd continued to misbehave, LOL, that the loss would have disappeared. And like I'd posted before, I had *just* bought a new size down and I need to be very careful! I don't have any backup clothes except for yoga pants!

DH had a little gain, but he's OK with that. I'm quite sure most, if not all, of it is simply water, and it'll be off soon enough. He also bought his new Active Link, since he lost his on the plane before landing in Orlando. He didn't want to buy one IN Orlando because he thought he would have to "train" it all over again. Aha, nope, that's not true. He could have been seeing all those Activity Points for our trip if he'd bought one in Orlando, because you link a new one to your account, and it just continues on. Thought that might be good to know.

Down 2.6 tonight. I really thought I'd be up so I am very very happy. A couple of ladies lost 10 pounds this weigh in for their first week. LOTS of inspiring losses at my meeting tonight.

Now to get my activity WAY UP this week. Lots of studying has kept me from doing what I need to do.

I still need to look at this site! Especially after Robin said she made shrimp...is this Skinny Girl? She uses a lot of Splenda and stuff that I cannot eat.

I am so happy!!! WI this morning and I lost 2.2 pounds bringing my weight loss to 25.2 pounds!!

Another 25 pounds to go.

I also bought the Eat What You Love cookbooks by Marlene Koch and those are fantastic. I've been doing a couple of recipes, all are yummy. And they have the points for all the recipes as well.

Have a good week everyone!

Congratulations on your loss this week!!

Do the Eat What you Love cookbooks have a lot of meal ideas or are they lots of deserts and snacks? I couldn't find much on what kind of recipes they contain.

Down .6 this week. After the bad week I had, I am happy to be down even though I didn't reach my 80-even goal. (79.6 instead.)

I took my wear-only-at-Disney fanny pack with me last night and showed everyone how big the waist is on it now for me. I last wore it Nov. 2010. It now falls to the floor! I can take the extender out for our next trip (this April, hopefully).

Seeing the change in a tangible way other than the mirror really has encouraged me.

I was up .6 this week. I really upped my activity over last week (17 points last week, 32 this week) and only ate 2 of those points. My muscles are pretty sore so I think it's just water gain.

ETA: I was somewhat bummed by the gain as I had lost 4 weeks in a row and I was hoping for a continuation.

Who here has the ActiveLink? Do you like it? Is it different than other gadgets like Fitbit or Bodybug? They really pushed the ActiveLink again today and I wonder if it's right for me.
