USERNAME/REAL NAME: kt marie/Katie
AGE: 42
BIRTHDAY: October 12, 1960
MARITAL STATUS: Married in Dec 1994
SIGNIFICANT OTHER'S NAME: DH
CHILDREN/AGES: 1 daughter (born 3/97)
PETS: none (just dust bunnies)
FAVORITE ENTERTAINMENT: music, TV, watching my daughter do just about anything!
FAVORITE COLOR: pink
FAVORITE FOODS: cookie dough, mashed potatoes w/gravy, french silk pie
FAVORITE MUSIC: most favorite is classic rock & progressive/modern rock but like most music except for rap & heavy metal
LIFETIME SINCE: 1988(the first time I lost 30 pounds but have been up & down since then-mostly up)
HEIGHT: 5'7"
EYE COLOR: Blue
HAIR COLOR: Medium brown (no gray yet!)
WHAT IS DIFFERENT THIS TIME THAT WILL MAKE YOU (AND MADE YOU) SUCCESSFUL: This time I will continue to attend meetings & weigh in regularly. The first time I lost the weight I weighed in one month after going thru maintenance & was within 2 pounds & never went back. I figured "I lost the weight, now I can go back to eating like before." Since then, I have lost & gained part of that original 30 pounds for various events (like being in a friend's wedding & my own wedding) but never kept it off. Then I changed jobs about a year ago & was bored to tears & gained about 15-20 extra pounds in the last year. I stepped on the scales in late 1999 & was aghast at the number staring at me. I decided to get rid of this weight again for good. I rejoined at the end of January 2000 and got to within 2 pounds of my original goal weight in 24 weeks.
WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST PROBLEM IN WEIGHT LOSS: The realization that I must change my eating & exercise habits for good. Doing WW & getting in shape is not a short-term fix- it is a lifestyle change. That has been hard for me to accept in the past and I am sure I will struggle with it now & in the future.
WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO DO TO CELEBRATE SUCCESSES: Go shopping for clothes, treat myself to indulgences I normally wouldn't do (like getting a facial or buy a new lipstick). I try to stay away for food-related rewards & think "outside the food arena" for little pats on the back for myself.
OCCUPATION: Enrollment Counselor at a University

USERNAME/REAL NAME: Melanie28/Melanie
AGE: 28
BIRTHDAY: October 21
MARITAL STATUS: married 4 years
SIGNIFICANT OTHER'S NAME: depends whether he's on my good side or not!
CHILDREN/AGES: DD, age 2, DS, age 1
PETS: would LOVE to own a Rhodesian Ridgeback one day.
FAVORITE ENTERTAINMENT: a night out with the girls! Of course, a night out with my hubby isn't too bad either!
FAVORITE COLOR: currently, yellow
FAVORITE FOODS: unfortunately, CHOCOLATE. cheese is my other downfall. On the healthy side, I adore fruit.
FAVORITE MUSIC: I pretty much like it all. I mostly listen to kid's songs during all their waking hours!
HOBBIES/INTERESTS: running, reading non-fiction. One of these days, I am going to learn to sew. I even have a brand new sewing machine (which has never been out of the box). One of these days . . .
FAVORITE FORM OF EXERCISE: RUNNING! I am an addict :)
STARTING WEIGHT: 196
PRESENT WEIGHT: 153.5 and stuck
GOAL WEIGHT: 155WW/ 145 personal
LIFETIME SINCE: May 2000
HEIGHT: 5'7"
EYE COLOR: blue
HAIR COLOR: mousy brown til I get my highlights next month. It's a belated goal weight reward! Woo-hoo!
WHAT IS DIFFERENT THIS TIME THAT WILL MAKE YOU (AND MADE YOU) SUCCESSFUL: Initially, I wanted to be a role model for my daughter. I wanted her to grow up in a house where fitness was fun and just second nature. As I got into running more and more, I realized that it really was a gift to myself. I hadn't been taking any time for myself - I was too busy taking care of the kids, the hubby, the house, going to school, etc. Now, every day I run is like a renewal inside and out. I find myself craving it. And for the first time in my life, I feel confident and in control. I am accomplishing things I never thought possible and I think the pride I feel and the positive example I am setting will help me perpetuate my success.
WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST PROBLEM IN WEIGHT LOSS: Stress eating. Sometimes after a long day with the kids, I want to unwind with a nice, huge treat. I am overcoming this (slowly, to be sure) by exercising instead. But I'll admit, it's a constant struggle. That and being a stay at home mom. I am in and out of the kitchen a zillion times a day and I have to be really mindful of those nasty little BLTs.
WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO DO TO CELEBRATE SUCCESSES: I try to celebrate every workout as a success so I give myself stickers. It's goofy but it motivates me. I also have celebrated by buying new clothes. For the first time, I have really enjoyed clothes shopping and wear a size I haven't worn since middle school!
OCCUPATION: grad student (for one more year then I'm home free!) and mom of two kids

FAVORITE ENTERTAINMENT: Hmmmm...organizing my house, decorating, chatting with girlfriends, "Survivor" (I was hooked), gardening, hiking...

FAVORITE MUSIC: I guess right now it';s what my kids like. The 6 year old likes NSync (gosh, have ya seen them dance???) and the 10 year old likes Matchbox 20, stuff like that. He's very much into music. I have no time for leisure listening, if I did it would be the old stuff, like Stevie Nicks, the Police, Peter Gabriel, Carol King... gosh, I am so old....
HOBBIES/INTERESTS: organizing and decorating, cooking, gardening, gossiping :), traveling, getting outdoors with the kids, selling stuff on Ebay
FAVORITE FORM OF EXERCISE: walking. I love it, wish I could do it more, treadmill's broken!
STARTING WEIGHT: 150 last summer, lost 12 on a custom program

WHAT IS DIFFERENT THIS TIME THAT WILL MAKE YOU (AND MADE YOU) SUCCESSFUL: I will have to continue with WW meetings and staying OP once I have reached goal. It's not that hard, what's hard is making the commitment to do it. AS the kids get older I am finding it a little easier to do, altho when there is a lot of after school activity, esp. hockey, I get so exhausted it's hard. I relaize, tho, that I hate the way I look now and I feel great when I am at goal.

LIFETIME SINCE: 1990 but "fell off" and got back to goal approx. July '98
HEIGHT: 5'5"
EYE COLOR: brown
HAIR COLOR: brunette
WHAT IS DIFFERENT THIS TIME THAT WILL MAKE YOU (AND MADE YOU) SUCCESSFUL: This time I got a good look at myself and it scared me. I'm not a kid and the added weight and lack of any muscle tone made me look like a hag. I was miserable but convinced I could not do it on my own. I didn't have to! And still don't. The WW system and the support from this site continue to direct and redirect me.
I like the way I look, feel, hold myself, appear to others. So does my hubby! :dizzy:. It's really me that's steering the ship this time. What's the difference? I WANT IT. I'M DETERMINED TO KEEP MYSELF ON TRACK.
WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST PROBLEM IN WEIGHT LOSS: Portion control and giving in to taste sensations. I get such a brain freeze when I'm stressed or upset. Even after almost 4 years I fall back into old habits. The difference this time is that I catch myself sooner and get back to basics.
WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO DO TO CELEBRATE SUCCESSES:
Still a tough one for me. Sometimes I buy a special outfit, but shopping is not my thing. I've bought books. But recently I think I want to include treats relating back to my artwork??? Still have to give this more thought.

Okay, I want, and need to join in. Many stresses in my life have pushed me off program. I have gained almost 9 pounds back. I am going back to a meeting on Friday, but will start program tomorrow.

WHAT IS DIFFERENT THIS TIME THAT WILL MAKE YOU (AND MADE YOU) SUCCESSFUL: Think of this as living life in a healthy way, rather than a way to diet my way to a smaller size.
WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST PROBLEM IN WEIGHT LOSS: I have several medical conditions which severely limit my diet and my exercise options. I generally cannot eat whole grains, most fruit, many spices and additives, and generally anything that tastes really good! Much too much refined carbs, like white bread and white potatoes are a mainstay of my daily diet.
WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO DO TO CELEBRATE SUCCESSES: Hmm, I'll have to think about that. I sure like smaller sized clothes.
