Weight Watchers Chat -- Part III

[shinysparklybubbles]

Finally hit my 10% last night!!! Got my key chain and promptly put my gym membership tag on it! I have joined and quit WW MANY times but since they started celebrating losing 10% this is the first time I have actually done it. My next goal is to lose 10% of my new current weight!

Congrats!!

Today, for the first time in many years, I weighed LESS than my husband! AND I was below 200!

We both weigh ourselves first thing in the morning. I was actually down 1.6 from Tuesday a.m. (I go to WW in the evening on Tuesdays), so I think I can expect a loss next week.

Yay!!! I can't wait until I can say the same thing. I am currently only 2 pounds more than him and he's stalled on the weight loss right now. With any luck I will beat him next week! Lol although he can drop 5 pounds at a time without much effort at all....

I'm looking forward to that milestone as well, but its 30 lbs away! I will get there!

So, hoping for a better WI next Tuesday night. I would like to be down 57 lbs by my birthday (when I'll be 57) on Oct. 5. Not sure I can knock off 6 lbs by then, but at least I can try!

That would be awesome if you could make it, but even if you don't make it exactly on the 6th, you will be sure to make it in your birthday MONTH .

I just joined WW today!! I've never done this program before but I am excited to begin and move in the right direction. Glad to find this thread!!

Welcome Kim!

So after a week of Disney dining, and moving into jeans I was up 6.5 and I'm so glad it was under 10 pounds!

That's not bad at all, especially since you changed to jeans. I dread the weather change and the additional weight of the warmer clothes. I think I might go ahead and bite the bullet this week too as I know I am already down a bit and I don't mind losing less than a pound as long as it's a loss.

My WI went well, down 1.4..... I will take it! Congrats to everyone here-being here and on WW is a big accomplishment.

1.4 is great! I am a really slow loser and I would be thrilled with a 1.4 lb loss.

Today I put together all my colorful paperclips that our leader lets us take (one for each pound you lose) and wrapped them around my rear view mirror.

I *love* the paperclip idea! I think I will start on one myself. Do you do anything special for your 5-lbs clips? Maybe a different color?

Finally hit my 10% last night!!!

Awesome! Congratulations .

omg I just realized that I hit my second 10% last week. I can give my old keychain back! It's been hanging on a peg above my desk for ages now.

I noticed that people were thanking you for starting the thread...I hadn't noticed it was you, but THANK YOU!

I just grab random colors from the leader's clip box (she is SO nice to provide them), but what a neat idea, to have a different color for the 5 lb marks! I might have to switch things around with it.




Ugh, I'm sick for the first time since starting WW last Feb. NOT fun. DS is sick, too, so homeschooling is out the window. Bright side: I'm not really hungry (though I did eat breakfast and drink coffee to avoid a hunger or caffeine headache). Down side: I'm not interested in water, either, so I feel bloaty. Ugh.

So here is a silly thing, but anyways. I just realized that I am not morbidly obese per my BMI anymore. it has dropped 3 points. It is silly but the more ways I can measure my success, the more motivated I am to stick with it. Looking in the mirror doesn't help a lot because I can't *see* the changes. I can tell because my pants are getting looser though. Lol

 

[StayCool]

And a PS. They changed the WW app and I don't like it. It is much more difficult to get to my usual foods and I have to scroll through a ton of stuff to find it. Boo.

Hello Kim Welcome to the thread!

I did my post Disney weigh in today and it was a whole lot better than I thought it would be. I was hoping that it would be under 10 pounds. I also chose today to switch to long sleeves and jeans.

So after a week of Disney dining, and moving into jeans I was up 6.5 and I'm so glad it was under 10 pounds!

Yay Jess, glad to see it wasn't as bad as you thought. I will never weigh in in jeans

My WI went well, down 1.4..... I will take it! Congrats to everyone here-being here and on WW is a big accomplishment.

Great job

I'm feeling really good about WW this time around. This will be the last time I join, I will make lifetime and I will succeed! I think I was finally mentally ready this time. No one is going to bring me down this time! Seeing my little stones move from the weight to be lost to the weight lost jar really helps!

That's how it was for me this last time, it finally clicked! You can and WILL do it!

Woot woot congratulations!

I have been sick for the last two days, fever of about 101.7. My body aches from head to toe. I don't think I've had a fever in 10 years. Hope it goes away soon. Since I was sick no official weigh in at my meeting but at home I'm down 3lbs.

Hope you're feeling better soon. I'd take that weight loss; congratulations!

Down 1.8 today for a total of 31.4! Feeling good about myself.

I had a non scale victory tonight. My DD swims from 7-9:00ish almost every night and we leave home at about 6:40. It's hard enough for me to feed her before we leave (she's a vegetarian and often eats something different that what i eat) and I have been eating when I get back home at 8:30-9:45. I was planning to have pasta with a couple of meatballs but it occurred to me that pasta the night before a weigh in was stoopid. I was shopping at Costco so I pondered the limited restaurant menu and resisted the pizza and the hot dog and ordered the chicken caesar salad. I did eat about half the dressing but not all of it . Wish me luck tomorrow! I hope tonight's choice helps.

Isn't that a great feeling to finally have once again? Congrats on crossing that 30 lb mark.

I was shocked when I discovered how many points was in a single hotdog (and I wasn't even looking at the roll and toppings). I hope the salad choice was a good one for you. Let us know how your WI goes today.

Thanks Sandi, still not feeling the greatest was hoping I'd feel better by today

Awesome robin, I have had the chicken Caesar at Costco too it's very good. Good luck at weigh in!

I'm back from my WI. I went to the earlier one since my DD wanted to be at school early. I put on my lightest jeans to transition to fall and was happy to see a 3 lb weight loss! I tracked every single thing this week, including my 64 point Saturday (damn those Badger football games!). I earned 24 AP and was still over my limit by 28 points. I can now look back at that week and see where I went over (except for the Badger game and all that beer) and adjust this week for a better week of eating within my points.

That's great robin, congrats!
