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

Scroll back to post #685 -- that's what NOT to do!

Somebody HELP ME!! I just found the recipe online for the Butter Finger Cupcake! (Would anyone like the link??!)

I guess this bears repeating........Don't make me come up there!!!

Scroll back to post #685 -- that's what NOT to do!

The problem is you posted it and now I can't wait to eat that butterfinger cupcake.

Ok, so now for my weigh in....down 1.8
10lbs in 10 weeks= 11.4lbs down and this is week 9. So, one more week to squeeze some more weight off before the big eatathon . Maybe I'll make 55 lbs gone next week.

WOO HOO! You're doing an awesome job, girl! 55 pounds, here we come!

So...do you need directions to the Starring Rolls Cafe at HS or are you good??

They're huge and they're rich so here's my advice (to anyone who's going to have one) SHARE IT!-- you'll be glad you did because you'll feel really full and guilty if you eat that whole thing by yourself and besides that, it will spoil your lunch!

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.

Hi Brae's Mom! I'm the same way on weekends, especially long weekends. It's difficult to watch everyone else eat whatever and whenever they want. Although I am a STAHM, I still find it easier when I'm here by myself then when everyone else is around.

Thanks, I have 1.4 for 55lbs we will see if I can geter done.

That's just wrong on so many levels . But no really I'm good I know EXACTLY where it is

I think I will share it with one of the kids though.

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.

Welcome Crystal!

Hi everyone,

Tomorrow is my weigh in day. I'm expecting a gain because as of this morning, when I stupidly weighed myself, I am up .4 ounces. Not huge but bummed over a gain of any kind. I just feel like it was a wasted week if I don't lose. I know why though - I ate out a lot this weekend, including Monday since I was off work, and every day since then I've been snacking too much at night, going slightly over my daily points. Then today since I was also home due to the jewish holiday I ate a leftover bag of M&Ms since I felt sorry for myself. I feel full, gross and guilty. Lesson learned.

In brighter news, my disney cm friend is booking pop century for my mom and I for Veteran's Day weekend. It was a very unplanned trip. We both love food and wine and are excited to be able to see the Osborne lights at DHS. Plus I have a 4 day weekend so no missing of work. I have a few pairs of shorts in my drawer that are super tight or barely button and my goal is to have them fit by the time we leave for disney. It's 2 months away - I'd love to be under 200 by then also, but that is 20 lbs. It may be doable but it seems like a lot for 2 months.

Who knows maybe you will be down tomorrow, but even if you are not good luck and stay focused you can do it. The biggest thing to conquer is the mental torture we put ourselves through. So, you hit a little speed bump we all do, the most important thing is you don't decide to sink the entire ship because of a bad week.

What are your thoughts on online check in. We are staying POP this trip. We have done online check in in the past when we stayed at CSR and POR. We may have used it for a past POP stay also. Not sure really what it gets you. I know your packet is usually ready. We will be checking in on the 18th probably by 10a.m. ish. Any thoughts. Thanks

Well I am officially up .4 ounces. I'm over it and moving on though-ready for a loss this week. I found a Disney shirt I bought a year ago that still does not fit, well without looking like a stuffed sausage so my goal is to have it fit fir my November trip. Definitely doable.

About online check in, I've done it a few times including at Pop. It saved some time because I didn't have to go through the whole check in process but it can add time if you don't like the room they give you. My thoughts are if you truly don't care where they put you, do online check in. If you really really want a certain section or floor, it may not save you any more time than the old fashioned way.

.4 is barley even a gain but it's good you are over it and moving on . Fitting into clothes is a good mini goal to have. You'll have a great week this week I know it!!

Thank you for the check in advise, you pretty much cleared up my hesitation. We do want to be in a particular building and section and noted it on resservation so I was thinking the same thing with not doing online because of it.

Sorry you're up .4 but that's less then half a pound so I'm glad you're not letting it get you down. Your goal to fit into that shirt is absolutely doable! It's great to have short term goals like that. It makes the big picture seem less overwhelming when we have little achievements and successes along the way.

I've never used online check-in. We did stay at the POP one time though. I liked it more than the All Star Sports but I enjoyed our stay at CBR last week even better!

WooHoo!!! No vacation damage!!!!!!

I was down .4 today - not much, but considering the usual scale jump, I'm pretty happy.

Wonders you and I balance each other out - we're all good.

I'm afraid of online check in, sjms, but then again, I'm afraid of booking online as well, I always go through the (sometimes painful) phone process. In fact I did that on Aug 16th when the new deals came out. Loooooooong time on the phone.

I am a chicken - bawk.

Now, someone please clue me in on the wish tags. If I put the 15lbs tag in my siggie does that mean I want to lose 15 or already have lost 15?

Way to go!!!! I like that you and Wonders balance each other out.

Not sure about the tag, as I use fitnesspal ticker (obviously)

 

[sjms71]

ok, I would say it is what you have lost not what you want to lose.

Congratulations on your loss today!

I would say also that the 15lbs tag would be a way to celebrate what you've already done rather then goal.

 

[rodeo65]

OK thanks, sjms and CdnBuzz. That's what I thought - progress not perfection!
