The Weight Watchers Support group ~ over 1/2 a TON weight loss so far!!!

3.4 lbs down this week for a total of 59.6 lbs gone forever!

I was hoping to hit 60 lbs this week but my weight hasn't budged in the last few days. It should start moving again soon, I've noticed it will move a bit for a few days and then stop for a few and then start again.
 
That is a fab loss hun!! You will for sure hit that 60lbs mark next week! Well done!!
 
Well done on your losses everyone!! :yipee:

almost 60 pounds Rach that is amazing!!! :)

Not doing great here, or haven't been, doing well today though and hoping to have turned a corner :thumbup: We'll see how the week goes :blush: :rofl:
 
Thanks hon, and you are doing awesome! I am sure even though you may not be following it to a t you are still watching your portions and trying to limit yourself which is still an improvement from where you were a few years ago. Don't underestimate yourself, you're doing good! :hugs:
 
I had wi I was down 4.1 yeah!
So I figured it out I need to loose 28.2 to be in onederland

So that is achievable my wedding is in 16 wks so I can do it

Problem is when do I order my dress? I'm thinking the end of aug
 
That's really cutting it close, they prefer you to order your dress months before the wedding so they can order it in in your size! I would go in, find your dress, get measured and then go for the size down or keep it where you are now. It can always be taken in but don't wait too long to order it!

Great job on losing this week!

Fab loss hun!!

I ordered my dress last summer already and will hopefully start with fittings after Christmas. My wedding is only next April though - so hopefully got enough time to get back in shape and into my dress again!

I would suggest you start looking at dresses now as they will need to order it in and start fittings.
 
I have a dress picked out from David's bridal I'm gonna Oder it online it ships within 24 hrs
Or I may take a quick trip over to the states the labour day weekend

This is my second wedding so I'm looking for cute pretty but not expensive
 
Oh my gosh - that sounds like a good plan! shipped in 24 hours sounds good to me. My dress took almost 3 months to get to the shop. Will take a good 2 or 3 months to alter too! It was the cheapest dress I could find too. Started looking at dress around £1500+ and ended up ordering my dress at just over £700!! So not bad going in the end - I think! DF seems to think otherwise! But then again he would! haha
 
:hi: Is it too late to join?

I started WW Online June 1st. I like it so far! I was previously on MFP but it stopped working after a few weeks :wacko: I am a BFing mom, so not sure how that plays into it. I also suffer from Hypothyroidism since the age of 10. I have been overweight my entire life. But i feel like im finally in a spot to actually be able to do something about it.

I was 170lb before my MC in October 2009. After MC i gained some weight that wouldn't piss off. So that kept me at a constant 174lb.

My highest pregnancy weight with Isaiah (DS1) was 188lb. TI don't gain much weight during pregnancys, so i am blessed in the fact that i generally get back down to prepregnancy weight within the first day or two after giving birth. By the end of week one I was down to 165lb. I reckon because i spent so much time throwing up during my pregnancy! I had PP Thyroiditis. Due to my thyroid going hypo around 5 months PP, I gained 35lb in an 11 day time span. It was the end of me. It was horrible. It put me to a whopping 195lb (remember, im only 5'1"!). I got placed on thyroid meds and started being very diligent about losing weight and eating right.

Next, I fell pregnant June 2011 with Elliot (DS2).
At delivery I weighed 208lb. Once again, i was lucky to lose most of the baby weight. I easily got down to 195lb. Since then (he was born in February, i started on MyFitnessPal in March) and i had to work extremely hard to lose there after. I got to 190lb but plateaued for 12 weeks. The scale wouldn't budge and I knew i needed to do something different. it was very discouraging to eat a mainly plant based diet and exercise 5x per week and not see results in the scale, in my clothing, or in the inches on my body. So then I started Weight Watchers Online. The first week, I lost one pound. I was thrilled. The second week I actually gained weight . But the third week, it has just been melting off. I am currently 186lb. Its June 23 and im hoping to reach my first mini goal weight of 185lb by the end of June. My long-term goal is to be ~110lb (Im only 5 foot 1, so health wise i could be as little as 98lb, but i need to be realistic here!). though I would be thrilled to get to 150lb! Im taking it one week at a time. Im more than happy with a 1lb weight loss each week...barring anymore long plateaus, i should be down to goal weight by June 2013, but I have adjusted that to December 2013 to take into account those ugly plateaus.

Im not sure what you want to put on the first post as far was weight loss goes. Ive really had to work to lose since 195lb. But i didn't joing WW Until I was 191lb. I am now 186lb
 
Welcome Guppy! It sounds like it's been a struggle but we're all here to help and support one another!
Your boys are adorable!
 
Welcome Guppy! Sounds like you are in the right place to be tackling this weight loss journey! Well done on the weight loss so far! a really good start!
As TR said - we are all around here to support each other! Keep at it!

Try Rocking - I see you have officially broken that 60lb barrier! :wohoo: Well done hun!!
 
Thanks ladies! Im glad to be here!
Feel good being here!

So, i hurt my foot two weeks ago. And i havn't been able to exercise because of it (even though the exercises i do are low impact). Oddly enough i lost more than normal...figure that out lol
Im thinking i should go back to the gym now. Its feeling better, for the most part, but im scared to hurt it again. There is one small area thats still causing trouble, but im up 1lb, so now im afraid that if i dont get to the gym soon, then its just going to come back. I had a couple of x-rays done. They were fine, but the doc told me if they were stress fractures, than they probably wouldn't show up on an x-ray and i would need some type of bone scan. ...except im breastfeeding and im not sure how the radioactive stuff would work....ahh, going off on tangents :blush:
 
Sorry, quick stop in. For some reason this past week I gained so I'll have to rehit the 60lb mark. It's so frustrating! Anyhow, hopefully next Sunday is much better!
 
oh it's so hardening to see the scale moving in the wrong direction...or simply not moving at all.
I hope this week you break it for good hun :hugs:
 
Guppy I read your post, it sounds rough! Is there stuff you can do at home to exercise for now until you're back to normal?
Do you have a Wii? I find Wii Fit is good for just doing stuff at home because you can choose how hard you want to work.

I hope so! I'm really hoping it's just water retention and/or muscle building, it's been really muggy here lately (which isn't normal for our area). I'm hoping the scale is amazing next Sunday lol
 
Oh i bet the humidity has a lot to do with it!

i have a Wii but not the Wii Fit. I do have Zumba and stuff on there....we have NetFlix and i went through and "instant qued" quite a few workouts (I had no idea NetFlix had those!) Maybe i'll gloss back through them again to see.

Do you guys do WW Online too? I would love to add you! My nn is Falling2Grace :thumbup:
 
I only do WW online, I don't do meetings. My name is llehcar though :)

That's awesome about the workout videos on netflix! We haven't resorted to that yet. I'm actually sad because our video rental place is closing down and is just selling off their stock (no work out videos unfortunately). :(

I did 2 runs today (Couch to 5k) with my best friend. We normally do one and then skip a day but we both felt great so we did one this morning and another after dinner. I feel awesome.
 
I went to WI sessions and used the online bits too, but now that I'm preggers I'm not allowed to go on there. As soon as I'm back I will look everyone up and add them.
 
hi

Im coming back with my tail between my legs - i fell off the wagon big time after easter. Thinking Ill just have one day off to celebrate my loss...well this week is messed up, Ill have the week off, oh dear I ate a pizza one day - may as well write off this week too.

And well...it just contined for the past two months basically.

Anyway I am starting this week reenergised to track like mad and get back on target. I have my daughters 2nd bithday in 2 weeks so its my mini goal to lose half a stone by then. But Ill be happy just to have my head back in the game.

Hope we can all encourage each other! good luck to everyone.
