Congrats! Nice achievement and, I'm sure, well earned.

I was down 0.4 at my weigh in today. I'm happy with that. I'm jealous of your progress, so I'm going to aim for 2 pounds this week. I think that will involve more exercise.

A lost is a lost not matter how big or small!!

Tomorrow is my day and well, we will have to see.

Last week I earned my 75 pound weight for my key ring. This week I was up .2 even though I stayed within my points everyday and earned 25 activity points through the week.

I am pretty certain I am retaining water because of my monthly cycle but it can be discouraging to see the gain.

Congratulations to those who lost!

I hear ya sista!! That is exactly why I think I won't see a loss this week. Sometimes being a girl just ain't fair .

OMG though 75lb weight key ring that is a huge accomplishment. I'm working on my 50lb'r. Keep going hopefully we will both have a better week next week.

I agree that a gain can be discouraging especially after you've worked hard at sticking to the program all week, however, .2 isn't anything to be upset about. Take a look at the big picture -- you've lost 75 pounds!!


Congratulations, Sandi, on your 0.4. At least it wasn't a sad day like you were anticipating. That's just about half a pound! Dont be jealous of me, though, because after I return from Disney it will all be back and I'll be starting all over again. Good luck on your two pound mission this week!

Sjms71: Good luck tomorrow! How much further to go before you get your 50lb charm?

I was 46lbs loss last week so 4 more. I set a goal to do 10lbs in 10 weeks. I have 6 week after tomorrow and could still do it. I think I'll be about the same weight tomorrow. I haven't been eating bad and staying in points, doing all my walking the scale is slightly up from last week do to severe bloating, ugh. It is discouraging I just have to keep concentrating on the 46 I lost. I'm so glad I found this thread, although I go to the meetings which I love, it helps to have support and encouragement all week on here.

I'm really enjoying this thread, too. I come here everday now. I do attend my Wednesday morning meeting (most of the time) but that's just one day per week. I can come here at anytime on any day and be encouraged and find support. Sometimes I'm even reading this thread with a bowl of ice cream in my hand. I know it's one of the things that is helping me stay on track and lose this weight in preparation for our trip to Disney. So...thanks everyone! I'll be needing more support and encouragement in about a month when I have to take it off all over again!

Hope OneBadApple is having a great time at Disney!

Has OneBadApple returned from Disney yet? Haven't seen her around here lately?

I think I saw her post on another thread, I forget which one and I think she was commenting about her trip.


OneBadApple where are you? .

I agree. I tried the WW boards, but I much prefer y'all!

Now, as for your upcoming trip to the World, maybe you're going in with the wrong attitude. Think of how much exercise you'll be getting. There are good ways to deal with the food at Disney, too. What if you said you wanted to stay flat or have a gain of no more than X#? Would that give you more control than just saying there is no control?

We're going 8/14 through 8/22 and are not doing the Dining Plan because I know I can't do the DP with any brains. Whenever I do the dining plan, I always feel like I have to get the most food possible. We put a stop to that! I think free dining would be a disaster for me.

sjms71 -- good luck tomorrow. you're doing great.

Thanks!!

But I think you have the right idea cause that is what I did when we went in September 09 for FD. I hadn't started WW yet but, said my limit is to gain no more than 5lbs. I only gained 3 and had it off by weeks end after coming home. I did the same thing over Christmas I allowed myself 3lbs. So, that kind of thinking has worked for me. As long as you still set limits and then you know what to expect if that makes sense.
5lbs over a 10 day period. I believe with all our wa

Sandi: We are going to be at WDW the same time! But, we're on the DDP . Honestly, the TS meals are so much better for me than the CS meals. I just have to remind myself to eat green stuff and not all the beige food that seems to be all over WDW.

Does anyone else find that the week before going is even worse? I am taking every little excuse to eat poorly this week. I ate at White Castle last night while in Chicago for a Cubs game and I have been paying for it (kwim ) the whole day. Tonight was a nice cucumber, tomato and basil salad. Much better for my tummy!

Hi, can I join you all? I am only doing WW online, I really just don't have time for meetings right now. I have been at it for 11 days so far and ahve lost 6 pounds so far. So thrilled! I want to lose 18 pounds before Disney and with 12 pounds to go in 7.5 weeks, I think I can do it. 18 pounds would be pre-pregnancy and my son is turing THREE on our trip so it's about time I hit pre-pregnancy!

My issue is that I'm still adjusting to the amount of food. I have NO problem sticking to my points BUT I don't feel like I have enough energy to exercise some days. However, I think I have an infection so that might be why!

I agree that the boards on WW are not that great. I think they are hard to get around on and once I post, it's hard to find that post again to see responses. I don't know if anyone else has that issue.

Sounds like a lot of you are having great weeks and overall success. Congrats!

We are on the DDP too for 9/18 trip. However, last year I don't think I ate 1 burger or fries the entire trip. You can find fairly reasonable CS meals. I love eating in Sunshine Seasons and getting the oven roasted chicken with carrots I do also get the garlic mashed.

Maybe we should have our own WW meeting while we're there!

For the DDP, I always want to get the desserts. For CS restaurants, they aren't that good, so it's not really a problem to pass on or ask to substitute a bag of apple slices or something like that. At the TS restaurants, I think taking a few bites to get the pleasure might be enough. But it's so hard to see the rest of the dessert just sitting there waiting to be consumed.

Hope you can stay on track until you go!
