Okay... lets see if this works:

This should be a picture of the White Elephant Cupcake that I had at Kusafari in AK. Eating this was very helpful in gaining those 8 pounds last week!

 

[CdnBuzzFan]

Holy Cow! I didn't know that picture was going to be that big!

I followed your advice, mrzrich. What did I do wrong!

 

[sjms71]

OMG!! That thing looks amazing!!! Just when you thought you've eaten it all at the World.........

 

[CdnBuzzFan]

Hopefully, this one will be smaller...

This is the butterfinger cupcake at Starring Roles in HS. I can't even begin to tell you how good this cupcake was.

I've been counting down for this cupcake DH keeps shaking his head , , saying he doesn't want to hear it when I get home and step on the scale, tomorrow official single digits for me.

AUGHHHHHHHHHHHHH! CdnBuzzFan - yer killin' me!! I have to have that Butterfinger cupcake.

I really need to step up my efforts - I only have just under four months until we're there....hmmm what can I realistically lose in 3 1/2 months? Another 15 would put me at 32. Enough of this summer slacking - time to get craaaaackin'.

Hi Everyone do you have room for another newbie??

A little about me. I am 36, married and have 1 daughter. I am about 100 pounds overweight. I have just today joined WW again. I say again because I started at the beginning of the year but got derailed. There was just too much stress in my life at that point and I couldn't handle it. I feel ready this time, and I know it is going to work. I have a trip to Disney coming up in June of next year and I want to feel good.

As someone said you can never have too much support so I'm hoping to get some here and I will return the support as well.

Hi Crystal,

Welcome aboard. Having your brain in the game is more than 1/2 the battle. It's great to have big goals -- like your June trip -- but smaller ones are more manageable and measurable. Maybe think about a couple smaller goals that are not pounds related. I hope you have great success this time!

Welcome Crystal glad to have you here . Like Sandi said concentrate on some small goals get that 100lbs out of your head and say work on your first 5 then 10%. It's so much less overwhelming. Lots of luck , don't forget to keep us posted on your success.

 

[Brae's Mom]

Thanks Sandi and sjms71 for the welcome and advise. I know all too well that if you use just a big goal it is overwhelming. I have set small goals for myself. I am working on my first 5% first which is 13 pounds. I just know that I want to feel better by June. If the whole 100 pounds isn't gone (which it probably won't be) I'll take 50, but I just don't want to be the size that I am now in June. Baby steps, they say a pound a week is the best way to do it.

My weigh in's are on Tuesday mornings so I will be sure to check in and let you all know how things are going. This week is a struggle for me because I am on vacation from work. I'm just home for the week, but it is hard for me when I don't have my work routine, so we'll see how the first weigh in goes next Tuesday.

 

[CdnBuzzFan]

Welcome to all the new comer's and congratulations on all the success that you achieved while I was off on my eatathon!

Today is my weigh-in day!
I'm not actually that happy about what I know I'll see at the scale but I'm going to chose to be happy anyway. I dont do my official monthly weigh-in until the end of the month so I've got some time to get back down a little bit until then. I'm also going to go back to weighing in with jeans instead of shorts so I can expect a gain because of that as well.

I'll update with my results after I get back.

 

[Sandi]

Had my WI today and it was bad news. Not unexpected news, just bad. Up 3. The holiday weekend did not go well for me. Then, I caught a cold and all I want to do is feed that cold. Today is a new day and I'm sure I can stay on our bus for this week. (A small, manageable goal, yes?)

Good luck to all of you!

 

[CdnBuzzFan]

Well, the results are in and I'm up 7.2lbs! Could have been worse... you should have seen some of the stuff I ate last week.

Ummm, we did and they looked yummy!

 

[sjms71]

Although a gain is not what we like to see at least at this point when most of us gain we know why and we get right back on the path we need to be on so this in itself is a victory.

 

[mrzrich]

Just got home from WI. Up 4.4 lbs.

 

[sjms71]

I'm going to be in big trouble when I go to the world
