Re: Weight Watchers Support Group Thread....

GREAT JOB, Stacy!!!

I agree about the alcohol- I never see a gain with anything liquid based, just with solid food.

I did okay, but this weekend was a bust. I had a wedding on Friday and although I was better than I normally would be, I still ate high point foods. Then Saturday I had a graduation party. If I don't count the wedding, I did okay, but I didn't count points at the wedding.

Overall, I maintained, so I am glad I didn't gain.

I will be sure to have a better week this week!

Here are my food choices today:

B- Pria Bar: Choc. Mint cookie- 2pts
S- 1 cup Kashi Good Friends with Raisins (dry) - 3pts
L- 1 bowl of Italian Veggie Soup (Panera) - 1 pt
L- 2 oz piece of french bread (Panera) - 2 pts
D- 2 slices Broccoli Pizza (6 pts each) - 12 pts

Total 20 points

I think I am going to start posting this daily to help me stay accountable!

Re: Weight Watchers Support Group Thread....

I restart Flex on Friday so I had all of them over the weekend. I used 31 of them....but usually when I use that many I will not lose weight. I am going to work out every morning....did weights yesterday morning for 45 minutes and went for 75 minute power walk this morning with FH along the East River.

I will let you all know how I do on weigh in on Friday, and will be EXTRA good all week!!

Way to go all you girls that lost!!!!!

Re: Weight Watchers Support Group Thread....

I just re-joined today. I like getting weighed in on Mondays. It makes me stay on track over the weekend.

Goodluck to everyone

Re: Weight Watchers Support Group Thread....

I am so glad that there are lots of us trying to better our eating habits!!!!

I had a cup of Vanilla Almond Special K with 1/2 cup of milk for breakfast and I will have a salad or a Subway sandwich for lunch and for dinner....I think I will have some mixed veggies or something like that.

Re: Weight Watchers Support Group Thread....

Hi - How's everyone doing today??

I'm still plugging along, sticking to my points! I have saved up most of my flex for tomorrow b/c FH and I are going out to dinner to celebrate our 2 year dating anniversary. Then, my flex reset Friday - just in time for my friend's bachelorette party this weekend! There will be a good amt of eating and drinking involved, so I hope to not completely fall off the wagon - yet still enjoy it!!

Just want to share that I am definitely getting on a roll with the gym! Since starting WW last Monday, I have been to the gym 4X, and I plan on going tomorrow and Friday!! Yay!

Hope everyone has a great day!

Re: Weight Watchers Support Group Thread....

Re: Weight Watchers Support Group Thread....

Just wanted to check in with everyone and see how we were all doing.

I am not going to lie, I have gotten a little lazier with exercising (only twice this week) and I have been eating ok...but not bad at all.

Good luck to all this weekend!

Re: Weight Watchers Support Group Thread....

I had a bad week last week - gained 1.6 pounds, it happened so fast! I had to skip at week at WW because I had a lunch meeting and then the next week I had gained. It's just so hard when you are always eating out at work. You think you did well and then you realize what you ate was actually terribly high in points (even if its a salad!)... blah

Anyway, I have tried really hard this week and even went to the gym today. I just feel like I need a lot of support.

We'll see how it goes on Tuesday!!

Re: Weight Watchers Support Group Thread....

I struggled this weekend!
I had a bachelorette party (fun!) but it was an all weekend, out of town event...with lots of eating/drinking (bad!)
I actually did okay Sat afternoon and evening...until we left the bars on Saturday night and got greasy food at 2am!! Never a good idea! I managed to not 'throw in the towel bc I ruined it' on Sunday...but still didn't eat great. Sunday night is FI and my order in night, where we tend to splurge a bit...which is usually ok, but given that I ate greasy food on Sat late night...splurging last nite made me feel yucky!
But I am getting right back on points today!! And I am going to the gym. I have had times where I have had a bad day or 2, and felt so guilty and beat myself up that it turned into a week or more of bad eating. Not this time...this time I am right back on points today!!! I can do it!

Re: Weight Watchers Support Group Thread....

HI! I joined WW last Monday 8/4 and this week for my very 1st weigh in, I lost a total of 5 lbs even. I got my nice little bookmark I attend my meetings near me here in Miller Place. I am excited to be doing WW and have FH on it too. It is nice to see so many of you girls are in the same boat. Keep up the good work and always have a bottle of water in hand. cheers to us loosing weight!

Re: Weight Watchers Support Group Thread....

Well I had my weigh in this morning and I am down another 1.2 which is enough to keep me at it. I went to the gym 4 times this week but I also didn't track my points (write down what I ate) and I ate out a lot this week and wasn't ordering from the healthy menu. Oh well, I still managed to lose so heres to another week. I'm off to the gym
