just joined WW last week and looking forward to reading this thread!
Hope everyone is having a great week!

Hi everyone!! I just started WW today. I was on it back in 2004 and I lost 50lbs then I thought I could do it alone, and gained back 50+ after that. :guilty:

It took me 8 years to finally realize that I can't do it alone and I need the support of other people and the program. :grouphug:

So....Hi!

Hello to both of you and welcome to the thread!
 

Thanks, Guys! :goodvibes

I was down 0.8 today!! :cheer2: Yippeeee!

Yippeeee is right! Congratulations.

I'm having my own happy dance. I was down 3.8# -- now, remember that I had a 3# gain last week, so I'm really at 0.8, just like Jessie. :cool1:

I did Simply Filling all but one day last week and I think that was really helpful to me. I'd never really tried it before because you had to commit to a whole week under the old plan. Now, with the opportunity to change it up day by day, that flexibility allowed me to give it a whirl. I still tracked every day and I'm sure that was part of my success. One thing I really liked is that, with most food entries, I just saw a nice green triangle -- not a number of points that just kept going down. I did use up all of my WPs with stuff like light mayo, real cheese, salad dressing, etc., but I didn't touch my 25 APs.

Anyway, if you couldn't tell, I'm a happy camper today and I'm going to do Simply Filling this week, too!
 
Well ... I'm down .4 and I'm fairly happy. I'm trying Simply Filling this week. We're going to Quebec for Winter Carnival and the crepes and beaver tails are going to be a challenge!

Great job!!! I have been toying with trying SF for a week. I think I might do that next week. :goodvibes

Great job robin :cheer2:. Have fun in Quebec! What's a beaver tail, or will I want one if I know ;).
 
I gained back what I lost last week...how can that be? I did eat buffet Friday night, went to the gym only twice (fighting a cold all week). I did walk one mile every day at lunch and today two miles after my weigh in/before the meeting...o well, it's just a number. That means that I have 2.6 lbs that I gained at Christmas that I need to lose...I'll just deal with it after my trip to Disney!

Have a good two weeks!

I got busted at my meeting yesterday. The topic was Smart Snacks and I had 6 mars bars in my purse! :upsidedow

Well, what I want to know is what you did with those candybars. Hmmm?

Jessie, I've forgotten -- and maybe this would be helpful to some of our newer folks -- but can you remind us about when you first joined WW, how long it took you to lose your weight, and when you went inside WW? I need to hear from someone who has been at this awhile and need some reassurance that, even though it's taking a long time, it's not abnormal.

That happened to me last year - I had several boxes of Girl Scout cookies in my tote bag, plus a sandwich baggie full of samples!
 
...and last night DH took my scale away. He said it drives him crazy to see me jump on and off it 5-10 times a day. :rolleyes1 He hid it and will only give it back to me on weigh in mornings. :confused3

Good for your hubby taking the scale away. People will fluctuate so much over the day with their weight. Plus, if you go on the scale and see it go down (I know at least for me!), it would get in my head that I was doing good, and a little slip up wasn't going to hurt...and then that little slip up turned into a BIG slip up!!
 
I missed my meeting today.....flat tire, which then turned into sitting at garage with 4 new tires and $550 later :mad:. Oh well, I guess that's life. I would have been down probably .6.

:hug: hang in there Stephanie. Again, sometimes the scale just lies. For me sodium is a huge culprit when I struggle. There were times when I just kept losing and gaining the same 3lbs. It's so frustrating, but keep pushing through change things up a bit too, workout routine, food and it will come off.

I didn't realize you were going to Disney, do tell your plans ;). Have a great time too :wizard:.
 
We're only staying for three nights in the WL (Epcot Wed and MK on Thurs). Leave out of RDU on Tuesday morning return Friday about 8:00 pm. We're going to book a bounce back for October.

I broke my record today....2.23 miles in 30 mins. I'm going to run my first 5K in Cary (April)!!
