I'm so hungry after work so I end up going home. I already leave for work at 6:45 so I can't imagine working out and showering before then... We walk the dog for almost an hour every night so that's something at least... I need to start bringing a snack and going right after work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-other-weight-watchers-bees-out-there#post-152112 Tue, 08 May 2012 15:38:03 +0000 Modern Daisy 152112@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My goal is to lose the weight by June 2nd for a wedding I'm going to - I cannot afford to buy a new dress so I have to fit back into one of my coctail dresses by then! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-other-weight-watchers-bees-out-there#post-152109 Tue, 08 May 2012 15:37:28 +0000 Modern Daisy 152109@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sslm: I totally hear you. I ran yesterday once our guests left for the airport and I'm determined to run again tomorrow after work. It's so hard for me to excersize during the week since I work full time. I am NOT a morning person so working out in the morning before work isn't an option. It's more of a possibility for after work, but it either has to happen the second I walk through the door or else I get too hungry or have to start making dinner or something. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-other-weight-watchers-bees-out-there#post-152100 Tue, 08 May 2012 15:32:34 +0000 sslm 152100@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Modern Daisy: I really need to get back to the gym!!!

I've been thinking about getting it, but wasn't sure how good it was. Supposedly it has tons of restaurant dishes, so you could be able to look up the points before you go (or while you're there) in order to get a better option. I'm not sure how many restaurants are in it though. The other option might be getting the calculator so you could calculate the points on your own if you know the nutritional information. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-other-weight-watchers-bees-out-there#post-117808 Wed, 11 Apr 2012 09:08:15 +0000 Mrs. Blue 117808@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been doing the online program, but I've fallen off the wagon the last few weeks. My problem is that we will go out to eat, and I'll have no idea how many points something is so I just give up and don't track. Must get back on it because we have a beachy vacation in 2 months, and I'd like to not have to wear tent dresses on the beach. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-other-weight-watchers-bees-out-there#post-117789 Wed, 11 Apr 2012 08:43:37 +0000 Adira 117789@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm joining you guys on this! I did WW on and off last year and when I actually follow it, it works really well for me! Since we began TTC, I've been really slacking with the exercise and watching what I eat, which is BAD, so I figured I should get back on the bandwagon.</p> <p>First weigh-in was Monday, so I'll update next week with hopefully a loss. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-other-weight-watchers-bees-out-there#post-117739 Wed, 11 Apr 2012 08:11:23 +0000 nana87 117739@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been doing it online since mid-January and have lost almost 9 lbs so far, which is about half of what I put as my goal weight (though I'd ideally like to be about 10 lbs below that!). It's not that much each week--usually between .5 and 1 lb, but I also feel like I've more been making lifestyle changes rather than trying to lose weight. So that part is good--slow and steady so that eventually I'll stop actually tracking but keep up the portion sizes and such. The hardest part for me is that dh is a big foodie--we go out to eat a fair amount, and sometimes he cooks really extravangant meals. And he's our cook at home, so I tend to eat what he's making. I'm trying to get him on the bandwagon too--then maybe I'd lose more :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-other-weight-watchers-bees-out-there#post-117704 Wed, 11 Apr 2012 07:29:05 +0000 sslm 117704@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just thought I'd update! I went to my first weigh in on Saturday and I lost 3.7 pounds! Then I proceeded to stuff my face with Easter stuff... Whoops. I'm working hard this week just hoping not to gain!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-other-weight-watchers-bees-out-there#post-110596 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 19:06:32 +0000 singingbee 110596@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I need to get on this wagon. I told my BFF that I was going to give myself to the end of this month to do all the things I kicked--coke, caffeine. Stuff like that. I need to lose weight so pre-pregnancy clothes fit better and so I'm at a lower starting point for pregnancy. Doctor also thinks that I am prone to high BP so losing weight would definitely help with that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-other-weight-watchers-bees-out-there#post-110583 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 18:38:02 +0000 sslm 110583@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just found some great sounding weight watchers recipes on pinterest!!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-other-weight-watchers-bees-out-there#post-110582 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 18:34:51 +0000 mrs. wagon 110582@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did it about 5 years ago and lost 25 lbs in 6 months. About a year later I ended up gaining most back because I stopped tracking points. I started again after RJ was born and lost 10 lbs, but fell off the wagon again because I was bad about tracking points since I wasn't sitting at a computer all day. I plan on going back on it after this baby is born and sticking to it in some way for the rest of my life! It's the only way to keep the weight off!</p> <p>BTW WW is the only way I've lost more than 5 lbs at a time in my entire life! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-other-weight-watchers-bees-out-there#post-110538 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 17:06:07 +0000 MrsH 110538@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm on the wagon. Sadly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-other-weight-watchers-bees-out-there#post-110498 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 16:09:56 +0000 duckduckkristen 110498@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did WW in high school and lost 60 lbs in 4 months. I'm sure that's not typical (my hair started falling out), but I kept it off for 10 years until I got pregnant. We'll see if I need it again after baby arrives. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-other-weight-watchers-bees-out-there#post-110489 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 16:00:51 +0000 Mrs. Train 110489@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been doing it sine January. So far I've lost 25 pounds. I have a long way to go but it feels good to loose some. Plus you get extra points when you are nursing :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-other-weight-watchers-bees-out-there#post-110469 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 15:33:59 +0000 Crisark 110469@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sslm: It's all in what you need. I am doing so well because my DH is doing MFP with me. If he can track and exercise then I can't let myself slack off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-other-weight-watchers-bees-out-there#post-110464 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 15:29:30 +0000 sslm 110464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sweetchic: I don't think the online one would work for me either. Sorry they cancelled your meeting!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-other-weight-watchers-bees-out-there#post-110463 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 15:28:52 +0000 sslm 110463@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: It's great that you never got the chance to lose more, funny as that is to say, haha. I'm hoping that happens to me, not so secretly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-other-weight-watchers-bees-out-there#post-110462 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 15:26:28 +0000 sslm 110462@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@itsmejules: That's great!!! Good job!</p> <p>@Sha: Wohoo! How's it going so far?</p> <p>@Crisark: I didn't want to pay for it either, but I tried other things (Lose It ap) and it just doesn't work for me without the weekly accountability. </p> <p>@daniellemybelle: I did it about a year and a half a go, and then totally fell off the wagon and gained everything back. I'm hoping to stick it out this time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-other-weight-watchers-bees-out-there#post-109551 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 15:20:37 +0000 Meridian 109551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was on WW last year and lost about 15 lbs, and the husband lost about 30 (damn men, they lose so much faster!) </p> <p>Then the holidays came and we totally fell off the wagon and recently cancelled our membership :( They cancelled the meeting that was closest to us on Saturday morning (5 mins from our home), which was the meeting we really liked. And nothing else is as convenient or as close, so we stopped going to the weigh-ins. And then after that, we pretty much fell off... the weigh-ins made a big difference for us! </p> <p>Almost signed up again for the online program last night, but then the husband said he didn't think it would be as effective for us without the meetings. Argh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-other-weight-watchers-bees-out-there#post-109282 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 12:48:19 +0000 heffalump 109282@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did that too after I miscarried! Unfortunately and fortunately I only lost about 5 pounds before I got pregnant again. Now I feel like I learned a lot from weight watchers and am trying without it... but well see what happens. Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-other-weight-watchers-bees-out-there#post-109249 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 12:37:02 +0000 daniellemybelle 109249@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've done Weight Watchers off and on for the past several months. It works if you stick to it, but I am bad about tracking points. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-other-weight-watchers-bees-out-there#post-109244 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 12:33:13 +0000 Crisark 109244@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've done WW and had success. I didn't want to pay for it anymore so I switched to My fitness pal and it's free and the same things are expected. You just go by calories instead of points. I love it.<br /> So, I'm not really doing the same but I am for sure on a weight loss journey while we are TTC. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-other-weight-watchers-bees-out-there#post-109235 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 12:25:59 +0000 Sha 109235@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>me! i signed up 2 weeks ago....they are doing a program at my work. </p>
