Weight Watchers Chat - Part II

[CdnBuzzFan]

Thanks to all of you for the comments on the drs note idea. My appointment is on May 26, so I'll see where I'm at then, but it is definitely on my list of things to discuss with her. On top of just being frustrated with the number and quite happy with my size, I would like to save the weekly WW fee money!

Oh, yah! I had forgotten about that!
Saving the weekly fee is definitely an added bonus to becoming Lifetime!

49 weeklies don't change they are a fixed number. Use them or lose them, they don't carryover. They reset on your weigh in day.

Thank you!!!!!

hi all
just checking in...went to the Dr again today to follow up on my shoulder and leg pain and discovered that in addition to the broken wrist I also have a small fracture in my fibula. Again, I am grateful my injuries weren't worse, but I am feeling down about this new finding. I was hoping to get back to walking but now I can't. And we're going to Disney in 2 weeks so I may need to look in to a ECV or wheelchair to use while we're there

ok...enough of my pity party! I hope everyone else is having a good week! congrats to the losers and welcome to the new members!!

Sorry you are having a tough time of it. Sending you pixie dust. Feel better soon!!!

I'm sorry about your news. What did the doc say about your leg fracture? Do you have to stay completely off it for awhile or what? I would be bummed, too, so I can sure see where you're coming from. At least you know WDW is about the best place in the world to be if you have a physical limitation. So, that's the silver lining I have for you.

Maybe you could do like Dory and . . . just keep swimming!

Home from WI. Up 1.4 this week, but totally expected it to be more. (Remember the flying wings?)

I'll be in WDW this weekend for Mother's Day Tea at the GF. Can't wait!

Sorry to hear that you're up but at least you know why. And...I'm jealous of your trip to WDW! But, I guess I shouldn't complain about not going as often as most people seem to. Originally, our first trip was supposed to be the one and only trip of a lifetime but we ended up going back twice more. I'm hoping for a fourth trip in 2013. Fingers crossed!

Oh dear! Its good that this was discovered now but hopefully, there will be no more surprises. I hope you can make any arrangements you need to in order to have a wonderful trip to Disney!

Hello everyone! I'm a newbie to this thread (and the boards actually). Just wanted to introduce myself. I'm a mom of 2 DDs, 7 & 3. Taking our first trip to WDW in September. I'm hoping to have about 65-70 lbs gone by then. I'm already down 40. Nice to meet all of you!

Welcome to the thread and to the boards. It's great to have a Disney trip planned to keep you focused on eating healthy and getting in good shape for the miles you'll be walking. Sounds like you're well on your way. I look forward to hearing your advice, too!

I'm just back from my WW meeting and I was down 1.0 for the WI. Yea! I needed that after the last couple weeks of gains. I'm still 5 pounds from goal, but getting closer. In fact, the WW receptionist suggested that I talk to my doctor about getting a note for a higher goal weight than what is on the WW chart. She knows I've been playing with this same 3 pounds for 3 months and knows how frustrated I've been getting.

I SO admire you for sticking with WW while working on those same poundls for three months!! I'm not sure I'd have that much willpower. Actually, I know I wouldn't!

Agreed...ask for a doctor's note. If you're healthy, happy and satisfied, that's wonderful!

Welcome! And CONGRATULATIONS on your weight loss!! That's fantastic! AND congrats on your upcoming trip -- I'm jealous!

Help...I left my breakfast at home this morning and had to stop at McD. Can someone tell me how many points is the Egg McMuffin? I'm thinking 9 pts.

You sound like me. Before I started my journey my goal was to lose 65 before my Sept trip. I have lost 16 so far and it feels great. Welcome to the board, you will get plenty of support here.

Thanks Stephanie! I guess I need to leave my dining out book in my car. I'll try to leave a post-it note on my forhead. Have a great WW day!

Good morning! Weighed in & I am down 3lbs this week! So happy since I lost .5lb last week. I seem to do that, a small loss one week & a larger one the next week. I still have far to go though. Hoping to be "photo ready" (where I don't hate looking at a picture of myself) by August when we go to WDW.

Good luck all!

By the way, my DH wants to take me out for Mother's Day. I really want to go somewhere I can stay OP. What are you all doing? Any suggestions? (no seafood) Thanks!


Disneycrazedmomof2,
Welcome & congrats on 40lbs so far!!!!
