@daniellemybelle: Glad to have you! I'm in the same boat, I need to lose 15 to get back to pre preg weight but would like to lose at least another 10 on top of that to get back to a healthy weight.
@Cherrybee: Welcome, of course you can join! The more the merrier. I love how you set up your goals, because it makes it SO much more manageable when you set smaller increments. Rather than saying, ugh, I have 30 lbs to lose, it's easier to say ok, my next goal is 4 lbs. I might have to use your method since I've been a bit overwhelmed with how much I'd like to lose. Good luck and keep us updated!

I have a mini goal to lose about 4 pounds before we go away for Christmas (departing 12 December) and I honestly don't know if I can get there...I seem to be lacking the motivation to track and I know I won't be successful if I don't monitor everything I am eating.
I've already eaten my breakfast of oatmeal with fruit this morning and my stomach is grumbling at not even 9am, so I don't know how I am going to make it to lunch, honestly!
-
@looch: The stretch between breakfast and lunch is always the most difficult for me!
-
@petunia354: me as well. I am fine after lunch, usually I don't even feel the need to eat dinner, but I do need to introduce a mid morning snack.
I just don't know what.

Hi everyone!
So, it's Monday! Weigh Day! It's also the day I officially start Weight Watchers online....
Last week I was just being more mindful of what I put in my mouth and I LOST 1lb! Hurrah!!
So I'm starting off my online stats with a weight of 13 stone 1lb.
This morning, I have used two points on breakfast (fruit and yoghurt and a coffee). E is going to her grandparent's house this afternoon so I'm going to go to the gym after a YEAR away! Eek! I have a tin of soup in the cupboard for lunch. I need to be very careful today because we are eating at the inlaws' house this evening and MIL is making a pasta dish with bacon and cheese and all sorts in it! Nightmare!! But if I can save most of my daily points I should be okay!

I managed to lose a pound, so that's a victory for me.
We in the US have Thanksgiving coming up, I am doing the cooking and hosting at my house, but I will be honest, the food isn't something I look forward to all year. I am curious about the turducken I am going to make, but other than that, the food is a giant yawn, so I anticipate being able to lose another pound this week.
I am curious, ladies, what is the most you've lost in a week? I don't seem to be able to get over the 2 pound mark.
-
@looch: Well done!! 1lb is awesome!! I don't remember what kind of increments I was losing in last time I did WW. I think the max was around the 2lb mark for me, too.
-
@looch: When I first started WW about 3 years ago, I lost 4 pounds the first week, and I had a few 3 lb weeks. Most weeks were 1-2 lbs.
I am 5wpp and starting to really be depressed about my body. After Thanksgiving I am going to start in earnest. I honestly think the hardest thing will be eating healthy, whole foods regularly. Right now I don't eat much, but I snack on junk food all day.
-
Hi Everyone. Well, it was weigh day yesterday and I lost 2lb! That's 3lb loss in total, taking me down into the next stone bracket at 12st 13lb.
Last week went really well. I have been weighing and tracking my food and drink religiously and planning meals in advance, which is definitely the key for me. I tried out two new recipes last week and have a few to try this week too.
How is everyone else doing?
-
@Cherrybee: yay! what great news!
I managed to lose 2.4 pounds at my last weigh in, which is phenomenal for me, bring me to a total of 9 pounds lost. I've set my next goal, which I should hit by the end of December. It will bring me to a new middle number, which I am so excited about!
-
@Cherrybee: Way to go!
I gained about a pound over the Thanksgiving holiday, despite my efforts. But today was my weigh in day, so its a new week! I'm shooting to lose 2 lbs this week.
-
Hi everyone! Another 2lb gone this week, taking my total up to 5lb lost! Hurrah!
Today I'm making sausage and bean casserole for dinner - 12pps per person!
-
This thread is super quiet! I'm the only one updating it, it seems!! Is that because it's the holiday season and everyone has given up pointing and tracking?!!
Well, I lost another 1.5lb which takes my total loss to 6.5lb. I only have half a pound to lose to be plain old overweight (as opposed to obese).
-
@Cherrybee: good for you!
I haven't weighed in for a few weeks and we are abroad now, so I am taking a little break.
-
@Cherrybee: You are making such great progress!!! Keep it up
I need motivation like this to keep me honest over the holidays.I gained a few pounds and was embarrassed about it so I haven't been updating. But I've buckled down on tracking and so I'm back down a few pounds now, still 15 lbs from pre preg and 25-30 from goal weight!
How is everyone else doing?
-
So, it's Monday, which is my weigh day. I have lost another 2.5lb this week, taking my total loss to 9lb! My BMI is now officially no longer in the obese category - I'm just plain old overweight now! If I lose another pound I will get my 5% award - but I don't think I will get there this week!! I'm hoping for a STS!
-
I am still tracking and weighing! I'm not religious about it, but I am conscious of what I'm eating. I'm still losing weight slowly but surely. I'm 12 pounds over pre-preg weight, 25 pounds over goal weight!
I need motivation like this to keep me honest over the holidays.
