Wedding Weight Loss - Disney Style

[Goldeelox9]

I buy the Prepackaged Ham and for only 2 points you get like 6 slices. Hilshire Farms is good and so is Oscar Mayer. The new Olive Oil Mayo by kraft only has one point per tablespoon. You do not need to NOT eat anything, you just need to alter it. Fiber is a big part. Look for stiuff with as much fiber as possinle. Fiber one Granola Bars (2 Points), Fiber One Yogurt (1 Point) Double Fiber Bread (1 Point). You will do great!

thanks for the tip! I appreciate it

New Splenda came out..has 1 g of fiber in every pack!

What ham are you eating Lisa? Generally, deli meat is 2pts per slice unless it is fat free...I like Boar's Head..the turkey is 1 pt per slice

I am 8lbs from the goal I set back in April 2007..that was what I was before my daughter was born in 1998..i am very happy where I am now and if I can stay somewhere around this point, I will be very happy!

I am buying the Oscar Mayer Lunch Meat already sliced in the Prepackaged Tubs. I fyou go by the serving size on the back, like 3 slices and punch it into the WW calculator it is one point a serving. I double it and usually count it as 3 points for like 6 slices. They are small. I also have got the HealthyOnes Lunch meat and that is good too.

Betsy, you have been such an inspiration. You look amazing!

 

[DisneyDmbNut]

thanks! It was a long trip here..but the view is good!

Do you use the Online WW? That is great!! you can tell it "wendy's chicken salad" and it calculates the points!! $16 a month!

 

[Goldeelox9]

I do use th eonline, and I also go to meetings....I need to be weighed in...I need to answer to someone else you know? When you do the meetings you get the online included if you pay fo rthe monthly plan. $39.99 a month. i LOVE THE ONLINE TOOLS!

I am getting married this November at WDW and have been trying to lose some weight before the big day. I have been a member of WW on and off and never seem to be able to stick with it.

I joined NutriSystems and today was my third weigh in and I am now down 9.2 pounds. I weigh in on Friday's and have 7 more weigh-ins before I go for my dress fitting.

I purchased my gown in April of this year and it came in the first week of July. Of course I ran right over to try it on and guess what - it fits like a glove - no alterations needed. I would love to lose 20 pounds before my fitting in October and will gladly pay for alterations.

I love these boards and am looking forward to talking to other Disney brides (and non Disney brides) about weight loss.

Great Job Linda....Glad you joined us!

I weighed in on Wed. and I lost another pound this week.

37 pounds total for me and 47 pounds total for DF!

 

[lpizzuro123]

I also do some posting on the NutriSystem boards but they are not like here.

You post something and you do not get much of a response. I am used to all us Disney Brides - I feel like we really stick together.

Good for you on your weight loss (and also your DF).

Looking forward to reading here.

Linda

Linda,

We do stick together. We had started this on the weedding boards, but they locked us down so we moved over here. It is good, I like the support I get from the girls here!

Thank you...It has been alot of work, but not too hard and it is great to be able to fit into clothes I have not worn in 5+ years!

 

[lpizzuro123]

I have just read through this board and all you guys are great. I don't know how I didn't find this earlier.

Goldeelox9 - when are you getting off your cruise. We are arriving in Florida on November 3 and will be there until November 16. We will be staying at Saragoga Springs, The Boardwalk Villas and The GF. We might run into each other.

Linda

 

[Goldeelox9]

[lpizzuro123]

I'll have my bridal ears on also. Please say hello if you see me and I will do the same.

Linda

 

[Goldeelox9]

Say Hi! I will not only say HI, I will totally make you get a picture with me! LOL

 

[disneychickforever]

Congrats on the Weight loss Lisa, and welcome Linda!

I feel like I'm gaining weight and not losing my mom says it's because I'm not use to eating a lot of food, but I don't know...

 

[Tabetha]

Well, I'm down 0.2 lbs on a week where I usually might show a gain, so I'm happy. I'm hoping next week's even better.

I'm loving my new Wii Fit and working out with a trainer once a week. Starting the week after next, we're going to bump it up to twice a week to try and really 'bring it home' for the wedding on Sept 30th.

Now, off to the gym!

 

[disneychickforever]

I weigh in tonight, I'm so nervous! I guess mainly because I think I gained weight yuck.

 

[Goldeelox9]

I too weigh in tonight and we had out of two guests 4 days this week and I know I haven't done too good. .2 is good Tabetha...I am hoping I didn't gain. I'll let you all know tommorrow!

 

[disneychickforever]

So I weighed in...and I lost 4.8 pounds! I'm so happy!
