everyone has been losing!! well done!
I lost 1 lb this week, the leader wrote down 2 but I think she made a mistake reading previous week's weight. 4 lbs total now and back down into the 10 st range :)

:yipee: Well done on your loss!

I haven't made that dish :)
 
Hi ladies.

I just started WW again and just want to ask a question. I have 36pp per day plus n extra 14 per day for BF. I am struggling to eat 50 PP per day as it is and not sure I'll be able to do the extra 49 per week. Will it affect my weghtloss? should I make sure I eat the 50 by adding say extra butter or cheese on stiff etc? xxx
 
Nic you won't always be on that many PP's as when you lose, your points will drop. If your struggling to use them all (and honestly I'd try my hardest to use the weeklies too) then instead of using low fat stuff, try full fat for a while until the points drop. Or you could have a chocolate bar or takeaway obviously :)
 
You need to use all of your daily points but don't necessarily have to use your weekly points. If you are struggling using your daily points you could always have cheese like you suggested or milk/juice etc.
 
Just started weight watchers a week in half ago, Hoping too lose 64lbs, no hurry it'll come off when it does! But I'm excited to find this board :)
 
I'm back! I was here last novemeber and then I got my bfp. Have had my little boy and am now back at it! He was 6 weeks on friday and I signed back up this past wednesday.
I'm definitely struggling to eat all my points some days too. Yesterday I had what I like to refer to as my hungry days and I even dug into my weekly points a bit. Whereas today, it's midnight and I've still got 8 points left. That's after 3 nice meals, 2 nutrigrain bars, some fruit and even a glass of chocolate milk. Will just have to figure it out as the days go on. Might get easier to even it out through out the day.

Also, I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions. I'm breastfeeding, so I'm awake throughout the night, and I'm finding the toughest thing for me is that sometimes when I wake up at night I'm absolutely starving, but I've always been told it's best to not eat at night. But that seems to be when I'm the hungriest. What the heck do I do?!
 
I am thinking of joining WW online. I'm in the 'normal weight' BMI range, but i want to lose 30lbs (back to pre preg weight). I'm a little unsure whether to join up, just wondering how you ladies who are already members (especially if you do it online) would rate it? Thank you :)

Welcome back! :)

I have read that the eating doesn't really matter. If you are hungry and are within your points I would eat and see how it goes. If you find that it is affecting your loss you could always try something different??

and congrats :)

hi: I do WW online. I have done WW before online so had a pretty good idea of how it works going into signing back up for it this time. I would like to go to meetings but it's just not a feasible option for me right now so online is the best choice. :) The application is simple to use and follow--especially after you get the hang of it.

Busy weekend here and food was bad for most of it. Back on track today though :) Hoping to workout in a bit after baby wakes up from nap but he and I have a cold (courtesy of his big sister) so we'll see if he lets me!
 
I'm also doing it online, I did my 2nd weight in today (okay first full week weight in) and i'm down 6.2lbs since starting! :) YAY! I feel like I acomplished something.

I'm also breastfeeding, not stuggling with points but I eat a big meal at breakfast with fruit, grains, nuts, orange juice and milk, water thoughtout the day light lunch with lots of veggies, than a regular dinner with my husband, normally with a coke till I can cut it out completetly.

At night I was finding myself hungry, so what I did was I tried to drink a liter of water 3 hours before bed, seems like a lot I know its not, and it does help the hunger pains. But if ur hungry don't starve urself.
 
trying to clean up the front page a bit (removing members who don't seem active any longer etc.) If I remove anyone by mistake or someone needs to be added please update me with your total loss so I can put it there :flower:
 
JessPape great job on the loss and welcome! I have to lose 63 lbs still. We're pretty close!

Welcome back Chelci! :)


I was down more earlier this week but on WI I'm only down .4 so that brings my total to 77 lbs now.
My DH keeps reminding me that it's slow right now due to jogging and putting on muscle. My legs are starting to look rather fantastic for a heavier chick lol
At least below the knee lol

Thanks! I hae to loose 58lbs to be at my weight goal :) 77 lbs, wow! Keep up the work!!! :) lol, yea muscle does weight more than fat, so if you are using a tape measure u may see more results there over the scale :)
 
My mom has been dping weight watchers and does the gym and so many other activities i cant count, but everything she does builds muscle and she's been so focused on the scale numbers that she isnt seding the results in the mirrow. She'll be 50 this year and looks fantastic. I will gladly weigh a bit more ro have healthy muscle mass.

Thanks Rach! I can't wait to be able to start running again. I have my post partum/c-section appointment next monday, so realllly hoping she gives me the go ahead to start doing some exercising(slowly). I really miss running.
 
well done on your loss Rach! :D

Once I had worked out enough to really build up my lean muscle mass my weight loss picked right back up! Hopefully the same will happen this time and for you :)
 
Well, I'm still at a plateau. I realized today after talking to someone, that I didn't hit it until I was on Birth Control. And now that I'm off (I was only on it a month) I haven't lost a pound since. I blame the BC :(

But, I'm so happy for all of you that have lost!!! WTG girls!

do u work out? if so find a new way to work out different routines, it may help breaking the plateau. its just a matter of changing it up to shock ur system in a sense again lol.
 
I am definitely going down so even if I haven't measured myself in a while I know I am!
I tried on clothes the other day and just to see if I could I tried on a pair of size 14 pants and I fit them! I can't remember the last time I could fit into a size 14. They were a bit snug but still comfortable! Crazy to think I was a 26 when I started!

I'm hoping I'm the same way Vickie, I'd love to see the bigger numbers (as in anything over a pound lol) each week again!

Mbrew I hope it starts moving again :hugs:

Chelci I definitely want to be fit rather than skinny, I want muscle and definition (not in a gross way though). I'm excited!
 
I think fit rather than skinny is the way to go as well :D I was so fit pre-Rhys, it's depressing starting over :rofl:

Way to go Rach!! You should get a pair of your old pants (or go into a store and take a pair of your old size in the change room) and try them on and take pics!! it's an awesome feeling :lol:
