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

[Heather M]

Down 2lbs this week. Wondering if this week I should try not going into my weeklies at all and see how it goes (used just over half of them this week). I was really wanting chocolate and it was my downfall.
Thanks for the link mbrew! I'll find that very useful!

 

[Try Rocking]

I try to never touch my weeklies because I find it really slows me down and/or makes me gain weight. That's just me. You could try for a week or two and see how you do Heather!


Thanks Mbrew! We don't eat out that often but it'll be nice to have points handy for when we do!
Great job on your weight loss by the way, that's great!
Hopefully your body adjusts quickly and you start losing weight again


I'm almost at my 70 lb goal! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for this Sunday!

 

[CarlyP]

Well done Heather!

Wow, Try rocking - thats amazing your nearly at goal, good luck! Do you have to pay when your at goal or do you get WW for free?

Were having a BBQ tonight, so I've opted for WW pita bread with tuna and mayonnaise instead of a big juicy cheese burger

 

[Try Rocking]

I wish that were the end of my journey lol, that's only the halfway mark! Or there abouts. I figure another 60-70 lbs after I hit 70 lbs!

And what about a pita pizza? Then you can feel like you're splurging when you're being good!

i treid on wedding dress how depressing i asked for my regular size 16 ouch had to go up 1-2 sizes depending on the dress and the wedding store girl was that is normal

really makes me sad but motivated

i love pita pizzas and pitas in general.

 

[Try Rocking]

It's definitely normal so don't feel bad! It's just how they size the dresses!

Carly, thank you! Yes, every bit of it was on WW. Nothing else has ever worked for me but WW. As for the website, I don't know, if I find something like that as I search around, I will definitely let you know!

Try Rocking, thank you so much. Your weightloss has been amazing, keep up the good work!

Welcome to the new users! This is a great place

Congrats on the weightloss ladies!

okay...yes, chocolate is hard for me too....i love to drink chocolate almond milk...i find if i keep that around then i waste a ton of points. i too try to leave my weekly points alone.

weigh-in sucked this week
Technically, i am down (only ) half a pound from last week...actually not even half a pound (5oz)...im a bit frustrated though because just 6 weeks ago i was rouding the edges and getting over a 12 week platue. I really hope this isn't another long haul one this weeks weigh-in i weighed the same as i did 2 weeks ago, so really i havn't made any progress in 3 weeks....i guess im just upset bc ive been trying hard and i know im doing a good job with the points. ugh...okay, end rant

oh and my thryoid is at a good level, so the doc isn't changing my dose, so i know that isn't effecting it...though i wish it were bc then i know it would be an easy fix LOL

 

[Try Rocking]

That's annoying, are you expecting your period? Did you WI after eating? I always WI first thing in the morning, preferably after a good poop lol

I hope it starts moving good again

 

[mbrew180]

Guppy, I so understand! I'm not sure where you are in your weightloss, but I've noticed at certain percentages mine slowed (especially around 20% loss). Also, when I hit milestones (like getting under 300, 280's, which I was most of my adult life) my weight like to teeter and dance.

And, on another note. I've been really working on not feeling food guilt lately. Like, for some reason lately, I'll be super hungry, cook, and not be hungry by the time I'm done cooking. But, since I was hungry and cooked, I'll eat, but feel guilty for eating without being "hungry."

Well, today I feel really guilty. I'm at the end of AF and I've really wanted chocolate. So, today I ate two cupcakes, and an ice cream. I'm completely within my points, 100%, still have some left for the rest of the day, but there weren't necessarily "healthy" choices. So, I feel bad. But, they tasted sooo good .

 

[CarlyP]

Mbrew I did the same, I needed a binge today so I had chocolate as well Feel bad now but I shouldn't because I was in my points. I'm just finishing my period which has been going on for nearly 3 weeks!! So this is the first bad day I've had, and believe me I have had super cravings for chocolate!

It must be difficult when you think your stuck but I'm sure you've been at this point many times and you've got back on track, maybe its your bodies way of catching up with your weight loss so far

Just wondering does the weight watches shakes really work? My mum used to be on the weight waters diet but he made her put weight on

 

[Mea]

Hi all I've just discovered this thread after browsing a little, I normally spend most of my time on the twins board!
I turned 40 this week and decided if I don't try and loose my twin pregnancy weight I never will!!! So I have started weight watchers.

The pro points seems quite easy to follow but are there any really good tips anyone could give me!
I'm trying to loose 21lbs I don't want to be skinny just back to my pre twin weight!

 

[Mrs Doddy]

hi mea, ive just started too, next weigh in is wednesday so we will see, my scales say ive lost 2lbs so we will see

im not an expert but ive been having 3 fruits a day and as much veg as I can get in. Ive got the app on my i phone to help me track

ive tried to do half an hours exercise a day, quite easy as this can be just a walk to the local shop and back, yesterday I was at mils and she had an excersise bike so I did 40 mins while lo played with her cousin !!

cereals and fruit for breakfast, salad or light lunch allows a good dinner

good luck x
