Good afternoon ladies,
Mandy - I'm glad you're enjoying your WATP workouts. Keep up the great work!
Riestrella - Yep slow and steady will win the race. Have a great week.
This weekend has been so so for me. Not as good as last week but not as bad as the previous weeks. I didn't do any binging but I didn't get my workouts in and I wasted too many calories on junk food. Next weekend I will try harder to avoid junk food and focus on whole foods. I'm looking forward to a good week and am hoping to have a good loss on Friday.
Have a greaat week everyone.

Better to have a so so week than a bad one! For me if I don't work out then I don't eat any unhealthy food, because I know it won't be burnt off! So if I do a hardcore work out and feel like slipping up a little bit, then I give myself a tiny treat. Not the most strict of plans I know, but I want to enjoy life too!
Have a good week, hope we both lose something!

'Morning, ladies.
GettinFit ~ It doesn't sound like you had that bad of a weekend! Even if you didn't get exercise in, and even if you didn't eat as much whole food that you wanted, it sounds like you didn't binge or go hog-wild (like I like to do!), so I would consider that a plus. I snacked on a lot of junk, too, but it fit into my calories, so I don't feel bad about it...you shouldn't either!! 
It sounds like everyone else is doing well, too. Riestrella ~ I agree with you on the eating a little more after a hard workout -- if my body is still actually hungry at the end of the day after a major workout (talking stomach getting ready to growl, or just feeling absolutely famished even after downing a ton of water), then I'll have a little extra food...I don't think an extra 100-150 calories on a given day is going to affect my weight loss...it's when the extra 100-150 calories every single day start coming up that I have to stop and tell myself no! LOL!

Good morning ladies,
I'm off to a great start today. I'm getting my water in and eating has been good. I'm easing my way back into the old WW Momentum plan since I know it so well. I've lost a good bit of weight in the past following the old program and I know the points values like the back of my hand so I'm going back to that. My total calorie intake will average 1480 a day plus I'll earn Activity Points for exercise.
Emme - great job on the ice cream!
Yep - Riestrella - I am going to up my exercise this week too. My body needs it in order for me to drop the pounds.
Congrats to everyone who stayed OP over the weekend. I just know we are going to have an awesome week!

I would like to join. I need more accountability, although I've been trying, I haven't lost any weight and I don't want to get frusterated.
1. I can eat only when I am truely hungry and I must stop when I'm approching full. I must make wise choices and be mindful of portions. No overeating, no boredom/emotional eating, and no binging!
2. I have planned exercise for every day but usually miss one workout a weekend day.
3. I will visit every day! Probably post more often! 
4. I will post my menu at the end of the day, for all to see and comment!
Emme, Happy Birthday! What day was/is it?
Mandy, Tomorrow {10th} is our 14th Anniversary. Best Wishes for you both. Which Leslies did you get?
GettinFit, Thanks for starting the thread. Good to see you again.

Evening ladies,
Hi Penguin - Glad to have you join us in this challenge. This is a very motivating group! We'll be looking for your menus each day. I need to be more diligent about posting mine too.
Mandy - I hope you enjoyed your day off today.
Emme - I cut my eating off at 7 tonight and so far, so good. I'm only drinking water with crystal light mix.
I stuck to my menu plan today and I did a Firm workout tonight.

GettinFit, thanks for the welcome.
Mandy, Walk Your Belly Flat is one of my favorites. I have some of the others you mentioned also. I used to do Leslie exclusively for cardio but then a very nice person gave me her old treadmill, and I've been using that.
Here's today. I'm getting hungry again so there may be an add-on snack later. I don't really like breakfast so I'm working on that; I'll usually drink a coffee, then wait then have an early lunch.
9am~iced coffee with protein powder + 2 vitamins {other than coffee I only drink water or milk, so I don't post the water, but will post the milk}
10am~openfaced roast beef sandwich = 5 slices roast beef, 1 slice colby cheese, 1 slice homemade bread + melon
1pm~2+ cups cereal {HN Cheerios + HN Chex} + 2 c milk
5pm~OutBack Steakhouse {Ann Celebration!} 3 slices bread/butter, starter salad, green beans, 2 slices pork tenderloin and few bites of sweet potato. {took potato and 2 slices of pork home for tomorrow.}
10pm~ 1 cup grapes {April helped! <---} + 1/4 cup peanuts {more or less}

Welcome, Penguin and happy anniversary! Thanks for the birthday wishes...my birthday is this Sunday the 15th. It's also my sister's birthday, but she is four years younger than me. We were born on the same day, but four years apart. My dad always jokes that his birthday is in August, and so...well...you get where that joke is going...LOL...grosses me out every time.
GettinFit ~ Good for you for not eating after 7! I folded and had a sugar-free jello pudding at 8:00 tonight.
Mandy ~ Enjoy your 'weekend' !
