WW Weekly Weigh-in

[KimRaye]

I wish I could get the clippie changed and my tracker moved

Teresa, this doesn't work for All clippies, but on some, you can just change the number in the code, and the new clippie is there. Go to the clippie thread, see if the 20 and 25 are the same, except for the 0 and 5, and if they're the same, just change that one digit, and VOILA! I'd check for you, but I don't have another window open.

CONGRATS, TOO!!! WEIGH TO GO!!!!

Thank you ALL also, for the encouragement and positive posts, here and on other threads! I'm telling you I would NOT have lost what I've lost without you ALL! I'm guess I'm lost WITH you!! ( I must be tired, I'm being silly.)

What's going on with the boards? I updated my clippie and tracker on Monday with no problem. Maybe I was just lucky? You are oohhhh so close to the gold clippies now

Hi all

Well I missed the check in last week, and I gained 3.4lbs.. It was TOM and I think that had alot to do with it.. Because last night back at WW, I lost the 3.4 plus 2lbs.. So I hit 93lbs off..I only have .2 ounces to get to my new years goal, Guess Im going to have to change my goal
Congrats to all the losers!!! And remember the weeks pass anyway!!

 

[Tera]

Thanks Kim - I tried, but it wouldn't save. I'll just have to be patient and wait till they fix it... hopefully by then, I'll be claiming my 30

Plutomyfav - I think it's only affecting the people that have countdowns in their signatures (like me). When I try and change something in my signature (tracker and/or clippie) it says my signature is too long yadda yadda yadda...

Great job Melissa!!!

So I hit 93lbs off..I only have .2 ounces to get to my new years goal

Happy Monday everyone

Just back from WI-- down 1.8 lbs. This is really puzzling because my Tanita scale said only a .5 lbs loss this morning. Usually both scales are very close. I'm using the Tanita .5 lb for the New Years challenge but very happy with the 1.8 We don't have WW again until Jan 3rd. I'm alittle nervous to go that long. I might visit a center near by at least one of the two weeks between now and then.

Anyone else want to report in?

Keep up the great work everyone!

Ooo, ooo, me, me :raising hand in air:

I lost 2.5 lbs this week!!! Taking me to 73 lbs lost, and Meeting and Exceeding my original WW weight goal!!!!!

I still want that 75 lb clippie though, so maybe I'll see how maintenance goes over the holidays, and tackle those last 2 lbs next year.

Weigh to go everyone!!

This board, and the wonderful WISHers were MONUMENTAL in helping me get to this point! Thank you ALL!!!

Kim, congrats on making goal. You are a true inspiration to us all.

Well, after being at WDW for a week, I returned home at exactly the same weight as when I left. We ate out for lunch and dinner every day and did 1 character meal and 1 night at O'Hana's. I just tried to make good selections and not snack and all that walking. I'm thrilled to have maintained on this trip. Now it's back to regular program and I can already feel the weight start to move off again.

Hi Janet!
Maintaining on vaca is AWSOME!!!! Sounds like you enjoyed your vacation food without losing control. That is the key to long-term success in my opinion. Welcome back!

[Tera]

Well I gained .2 this week, which is fine considering the parties and drinking I've done in the past week. I really think the worse is behind me

So I'm down to 26 pounds in 16 weeks so far.....

 

[KimRaye]

Teresa, you're losing at a great, safe rate. Keep up the good work!

 

[Kristi1357]

Ok, after 2 weeks at WDW, I weighed in last Friday. And to my absolute shock, I lost 1.2 lbs! Down a total of 11.2 lbs.

I was certainly no angel in WDW. I did eat oatmeal, an orange and yogurt in my room for breakfast every morning. I did not drink enough water, had my share of margaritas and ice cream. I did make somewhat smarter choices too: no french fries, water instead of diet soda w/ a meal, etc. I just think all that crazy walking did the trick! We stayed at BCV and always walked to Epcot or MGM. We never used a tram when we drove to a park either - hiked it every time instead. I usually tried to push the stroller when walking too - burn more calories, right?

Sounds like everyone here is doing really great - especially during such a hard time of year!

(now why can't I get my darn clippie to work STILL?)

 

[jay-nee]

I am so hoping that all the walking works for me at WDW. I am so scared about gaining weight there and having no control! scary...

I am so trying to get into the right mindset before we leave and program myself to make consistently good choices... so many tempatations!!!

I am so amazed at the folks who loose on vacation! Way to go. It helps me to think that I can do this too! I'll try...

 

[Zoesmama03]

I'm gonna start seriously tracking my points after Christmas. This week will just be toooooo crazy to even start but can I join you all??? I think I posted before a long time ago and I journaled great for 4 days despite going way over. Also gonna start working out and work up to 5 days a week so I can make 1000 minutes of exercise in Jan.

 

[Tera]

Hi Melissa and Welcome!!

I know how hard it is to try and stay within your points or even count them for that matter during the holidays. Only 12 more days and you can start fresh. How long have you been doing WW? I started the end of Aug (24th) and am close to losing 30 pounds, hopefully by the end of the year (tomorrow is my weight in). You'll find plenty of support here to help you through it.

Good Luck!

Jay-nee,

Seriously, I was not doing that good in WDW. Better than in the past, but certainly not on plan in the least. We ate at buffets, I had a milkshake with dinner at Sci-Fi, etc. I did eat breakfast in the room every morning since we had a Studio at BCV. I always do eat in the room anyway - if no fridge or microwave, I've always had fruit and a cereal bar or something. Keeps you on track for one meal, at least.

I would concentrate on trying to make the best choices possible. Like, get the wrap sandwich at Cosmic Ray's instead of a burger. Drink lots of water and do the walking. We would walk from the Pluto parking lot to TTC every time we went to & from MK. We walked Epcot to MGM many, many times. And believe it or not, I had not one Mickey bar! I did have ice cream on many occassions, as well as a citrus swirl thing which was not nearly as good as a dole whip though.

I was scared to death to weigh-in last Friday and was absolutely dumbfounded that I lost weight! I even had McD's breakfast on the long drive home for goodness sake! I would just suggest not sweating it too much. I was really worried about this for the first few days and hubby had to keep reminding me I was on vacation & walking ALOT. I really think if you do all the walking you can, you'll be pleasantly surprised when you get back home. Heck, I would have been thrilled to just maintain!!!

 

[KimRaye]

Just boring me checking in with a 0 week. No loss or gain, but that's the idea behind maintenance, right?

Keep up the great work everyone. This is SUCH a hard time of year!!!
