OMG! OMG! OMG!

WI tonight. I lost 7.2 lbs this week! (Keep in mind I had gained 3.6 last week at WDW) I am convinced that some of the gain last week was water weight from eating at WDW restaurants.

Even more notable is that I got my 50 lb key chain disk tonight!

That is wonderful. Congratulations on hitting that milestone. I bet you feel like a million bucks!

I'm getting worried about the coming weekend. Tonite we go to my aunt's for pizza; tomorrow we go to my parents home to spend Christmas Eve day with my family; the next day is with DH's family. Mexican food at my family and traditional turkey with all the fixin's at his. I'm going to take fresh fruit trays to both so I can snack on fruit instead of the trigger foods. For DH's family, they count on me making an apple pie and a praline sweet potato pie. I'm going to have to make those tonight. The pressure is building. I'm kinda glad I have to work today so I'm away from cookies and other delights.

So anyway, please share some of your plans for how you're going to deal with the holiday food fest. I need help y'all!

hey guys...congrats to all the "losers" here...what an accomplishment to be abel to lose during the holiday madness

I've been lurking for a few weeks...crazy busy with work and school so I haven't had time to post. Final exam was last night and I'm off work until Monday thank goodness!

I haven't been doing so well the past couple of weeks....stressed out beyond belief with my A&P class and I didn't cope well Haven't been tracking and haven't worked out at all this week Hoping that I can get my butt back in gear now that school is over for winter break and I can refocus on WW.

Have a wonderful Christmas everyone!

Well, had my weigh in today and I am the exactly the same. I know I said I'd be happy with that but, I guess I lied, I'm accepting it, but would be happier if I had loss. And I know next week will not be a loss unless some strange thing happens. So, my last 14lbs will have to come off in 2011.

For my first weigh-in, and one week under my belt, I have reduced a total of 4.6 pounds. Only 92 pounds to go.

Merry Christmas to my fellow WW teammates.

Congrats, Dave! Congrats to everyone else who managed to either lose or not gain weight this holiday season. WI is on monday for me. I'm already regretting that red velvet cupcake with the cream cheese frosting.

Merry Christmas to Everyone Also!

I am .4 pounds away from my 10% goal and I can't believe how hard this past week has been. I never realized how much candy, chocolate and other treats I get during the week of Christmas! If this was last year, I would have gobbled everything up all ready. My weigh in is tomorrow. I can't wait.

 

[sjms71]

My kids were up at 4:15!!!! DS asked DH what he wanted for Christmas, to which he replied more sleep! Hope everyone has a magical holiday.

 

[ScubaD]

I also wish everyone a Very Merry Christmas.

Thanks for letting me join the club, and best wishes for goals acheived in 2011.

Good morning everyone and Merry Christmas to all who celebrate! We're going to Christmas dinner with my Jewish inlaws here in Tampa. That cracks me up every year.

I think I survived a week at WDW. I don't have a scale, so I'm not sure but my clothes are not tight like they were last August. I'm planning to go to the YMCA tomorrow so I can weigh myself .

We're here in Tampa for 3 more days and then off to LA for a few days in Disneyland and then to the Rose Bowl game .

Hey Robin, I'm glad you checked in with us and that everything is going well. With all youry travels, I'm sure it has been difficult, but it sounds like you're giving it a good shot. I hope you have good results tomorrow.

Merry Christmas to all!

So how did everyone do? I know it was rough for me as I must have passed the cookie/chips/candy table 1,000 times and not once did I bend the elbow to grab even a small piece. And when I added my points when I had an opportunity to break away form the family I only used about 15 extra points of my 48 I get for the week. And that includes my Merlot I enjoyed at the end of the evening.

Feel free to share your expeiriences.

Hi all! I just started WW a few days ago, and while I'm not ridiculously overweight (5-10 pounds, maybe) I am currently training for the Houston Marathon and, while I know my pace for the marathon is probably set in stone, I do want to improve my speed for some shorter races in the spring. I think I'm going to have to drop a little weight to make that easier.

My only problem, even with the increased fruit and veggie intake, is that I have not felt full enough since starting. I ran 4 miles today (with the intention of running 15 ) and felt terribly dizzy. I stopped at Subway and wolfed down a footlong sub (definitely cost me some activity points!) and finally felt okay. An hour and a half later, my stomach is starting to rumble again! The hunger from running actually caused me to put ON weight while marathon training (seriously!) which is why I started WW. Maybe the 29 points they've assigned me is just not enough, even with the weekly points.

Oh well, off to the gym to see if I can make up some of the lost workout!

While I love WW and feel it is the perfect plan for me, I'm wondering if it isn't the right fit for you. If you are within 10 pounds of a goal weight and training for a marathon, you probably need a nutrition plan that takes the training into consideration a lot more than WW does. With my running group, we have a nutritionist available to address questions like that. Are you in a running group? Can you join one that provides more than just a running schedule (i.e. cross training suggestions, nutrition, form, and the like)? That's just a thought. I wish you great luck and success.
