I just found you...

[Jen117]

I have been here for several years and keep seeing banners of people losing weight with DISers, but did it ever dawn on me there was an actual thread?? NOPE...

So here is my story. This is my third time on WW. First time, in 1998 shortly after getting married, then got PG in 2000, started WW in 2001 again, then got PG for second time in 2002 and had my second daughter April of this year. Back on WW, kind of. I like the new flex plan, but this time I am tired of trying. So I follow it some weeks really well, and some weeks just in my head. I have been heavy my whole life, so this is a constant struggle that I get bored with. I have lost 10 pounds since having my baby in April.

Hope to chat with you all more, and hope to keep my enthusiasm up!!

Welcome Jen!

I'm Amelia, a fellow Mid-Westener, from Indiana. We all have different stories here on the WISH boards but the one thing we have in common is the fact that we want to have healthy life styles. We're here for you when ever you need encouragement or a hug. We're also here for the celebrations! We've all got our own goals, so set a goal and join the group!! Great to meet you and am looking forward to hearing from you!

Again, welcome!

Welcome Jen!!

You should be able to find plenty of information here on WISH - there are lots of people doing WW.

We try really hard to support each other, inspire each other, celebrate our successes with each other, and lend an ear when needed.

Glad to have you along for the journey!!

Hi Jen ... and Welcome to WISH !!! I am following the WW flex points plan too ... but I do not actually belong to WW. I find that the days I don't bother writing down what I've eaten are the days when I go over So I keep my handy-dandy Winnie the Pooh journal with me at all times ! Best of luck to you ... and check in with us here often 'cause we really do need each other!

Hi Jen!

You have come to the right place for motivation. Just check out all of our successes! You can do this. We won't let you get bored and we will be here to push you as much as you need. (or as little, depending on the need du jour. ) Glad to have you.

Keep the Faith!

Welcome Jen!

I am another Jen who is also on WW again after being PG. I have done the plan before as well, and actually did get to LM status before DS was born. Trying to get back there again now that he is 19 months old, and obviously the weight didn't melt off as I wished it would have. I can relate with getting bored with the program from time to time, but do hang in there. We both know it works, and if you think of it as a lifestyle rather than a short term diet, you will succeed. I have been heavy much of my life too, so I can relate to your battles. It does feel good to get that extra weight gone though, and you'll have more energy to keep up with your two darling kids.

Enjoy the boards, and hang in there and we can all keep each other motivated to get to our goals!

Hi, <b>Jen117</b>. Welcome to WISH. Will you be taking the WISH challenge? I hope so, I would love to have you in my support group. Please say yes

 

[Jen117]

Thanks for all the wonder well "wishes". Makes me feel a little bit special!!

Now I have to dive into this site to see what is going on. I had a horrible day at work (not food wise) and had a melt down. Oh and all the sushi talk sent me running there for lunch. So now I need to figure out what these Challenges are.

Have a super fabulous weekend and see you lighter...later!!
