Weight Watchers Chat - Part II

[bigsis1970]

Had my first WI today and am down 1.1 which i consider great because even though I signed up last Thurs night I took Friday and the weekend to read my materials - plan out meals - ect.. and started tracking on Monday..

WI this morning, and I was down 2.6 pounds for the week!! That's more that my weekly average the last month, so I was super-happy with it. The loss put me at 22 pounds overall and gave me another 5+ "star" in the online tracker.

After what I was SURE was a slip-up yesterday eating out for lunch, I'm thrilled...and energized for another week. Have a fantastic weekend, everyone. We're supposed to see 80 degrees here in Indy by Sunday!!

Happy Friday all - looks like everyone is starting to feel better this week! Last week seemed to be a slow week so I hope this week we all lose!!!

Tomorrow night is my first big challenge - we are going to a fundraiser that will have good food and booze. I hardly ever drink and this would be one of the times I do but I think I will skip drinking this year - or maybe one glass of wine. I wish I knew the dinner menu! That would make it easier to plan ahead. I haven't used any of my weekly points so I know that will help me but with a Monday weigh in I would rather stay within my points!!

If you know where the dinner is going to be held, try calling the venue and asking them what they will be serving. I've done that. Let them know you have special dietary considerations and you would like to know what's on the menu. They shouldn't object to giving you that information.

First want to say Good Luck today to all our Friday Weighers. I must say my 1lb loss yesterday has given me a boost of confidence I haven't see in myself in a while. I usually approach the weekend with this feeling of trying to swim upstream. But I feel different today so I hope it last .

Here's to a GREAT weekend - and feeling great about yourself!

I hit my 16 weeks, was down 1 lb. and went over 20 lbs. yesterday at WI!! I have new "bling" for my 10% key chain. It still amazes me how well this plan works.

Congrats!

TGIF Everyone - well it's the end of the week and boy am I glad. We are going to see DD at college tonight - she has a soccer game, so 4 hours in the car for a 90 minute game I'm so excited to see her, its been a few weeks since we saw her and I miss her so much.

My youngest DD and I are running in a 5k tomorrow - actually looking forward to it - hoping to improve my time from the last one.

My roller coaster ride continues, I am still struggling with the eating - I did so well yesterday til last night, then went over on my points. Then I woke up this morning early to exercise only to quit halfway through my DVD. To make matters worse, I then went and made my DD chocolate chip pancakes and made one for myself as well

Back on track for lunch though - and have dinner planned, so I will fininsh the day strong!!!

Enjoy the rest of the day!

Have fun with your DD and good luck on your 5K. As for the roller coaster ride, it doesn't matter that you fall off as long as you get back on .

Happy Birthday (late)

[GoofyMomInOhio]

I'm soo excited and I have to share this with people who will understand. At my co-workers urging (LOL I think they were sick of my pants falling down), I finally went pants shopping today and was down a size!!! I was dancing in the changing room!!

isn't that a great feeling, way to go!

Had my WI today - was down 2.0! After weeks of .4, .6, .2, etc. - I was very excited! But, when my lovely receptionist pointed out I was only 8 pounds from the high point in my height range, I cried. Can't believe I'm so close.

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend - I know I don't post often, but I read every day, and all of you are a tremedous amount of support to me!

Yay!!! So great!! Congrats!

I had WI this morning..down a half a pound.

On a side note, I "think" splenda is my coffee is giving me migraines. The more I read about splenda the more it does not sound like a good thing to consume. I had my coffee with just ff half n half today & yuck. So maybe I should just use the points for real sugar & just have one cup of coffee & really enjoy it. Anyone use real sugar instead & how much?

Hang in there everyone! Good luck.

I have one cup of coffee, every morning, I don't use sugar in hot coffee but iced coffee I do. 1 Tbsp is only 1 point, and 2 tbsp of half and half is 1 point, so if that is enough for you one good cup of coffee is only 2 points. I usually eat fruit for breakfast, so my early morning points are only 2. If I am feeling really hungry I will have a fiber bar which is 3 points, so its not so crazy. Hope this helps.

Awesome!!!!! I had a size smaller at home and it was wonderful to put the big ones away and take out the smaller ones!!!!!

 

[Twingle]

I'm 19 pounds from the goal I set for myself, which is right smack inbetween the numbers WW has for my height range. But, I never "locked in" to the number, because I have no idea how I'll feel at it, kwim? If I feel like it's too thin, I have some wiggle room; if I feel like I could lose a bit more, I can do that too.

 

[CdnBuzzFan]

Jess, not sure which day but, wasn't it your birthday this week?

Happy Birthday (late)

Yup! It was Wednesday. Pizza and Red Velvet Cake with Cream Cheese Icing. I didn't really like my cake but from the amount that I ate of it, you would have trouble believing that I didn't like it!

Thanks for remembering!
