Anna Thank you -- for me the motivation is knowing that this program really works while still having that flexibility of being bad Journaling is the only way to keep honest-- for instance last week it took me until the weekend till I actually got it in the computer( I do it online) but I did it-- I didnt want to look at it but I knew I had to -- I def take each day one by one for instance had a great day yesterday but was really craving Pad Thai today so i went and had some-- way over points for this part of the day but i will eat less tonight-- This last week I have been thinking that I have lost enough( because I am at a happy place body wise) but am pushing myself to lose even more so that when we start TTC I will have some cushion(no pun intended) Keep it up and keep thinking about the end goal--whatever it might be for you--for me I feel sooooooo much better right now and am looking forward to a new spring/summer wardrobe Good luck --remember one day doesn't have to turn into a bad week Laura

Re: Anna and anyone needing motivation
Thanks for the words of wisdom Laura !
I'll get myself back on track for the umpteenth time!
Keep up the great work ! I hope to be posting ALOT more on the 'weigh in' threads...
Edited to add: Laura, I have the book and point counter. (never joined). I also have a recipe book. I journal in a notebook. I just wanted to know what the online journal was like ?
Are there formulas ? Do they tally up your points and tell you if your up or down for the week ? Anything I can add to a spreadsheet if I start one? Thanks!

Re: Anna and anyone needing motivation
Laura--that's some great advice! I'm so proud of you! You really have the best attitude about it. No wonder you're doing so well! I am always on again and off again, but I keep getting back on track. I'll have to print out your post for motivation.
Anna and anyone who's interested--I have a WW journal, point database, point calculator, and restaurant food lists for my palm pilot. I love it! It tells you how many pts you have left, how many you have banked, keeps track of your weight, and lots more. I could try to send it to you somehow if you want it. It used to be online, but WW recently found out about it and it got pulled off of all the sites.

Anna (and anyone else who is interested) I have a few spreadsheets that I can email you-- that way you wont have to write in a journal-- there is also a recipe builder-- i got them in case I decided to stop paying for online--they are really good-- I havent stopped paying because that is my motivation!!! I have to lost to justify my $15 a month!!!! Laura [email protected]
