so let me know whe you are starting and come to the fs board...everyone posts their menus and stuff on the looking for a buddy thread.

I also strarted on a weekend but if I would do it again I would start on a sunday so I only get one full weekend because for me weekends are hard.

I bought the vegetarian baked beans in can. I either eat them plain or with salsa mixed in.

sorry about the pound. My scale is all over the plca today, bouncing between 193-195. but 7:15 is my official weigh in time so we will see. I hate when it does that, i'll take anything but i like consistency.

Yesterday was a really good day. I stayed in points and swam for half an hour. Stepped on the scale today and 211!!!!!!! If this keeps up I will stay doing what I am doing. I am a terrible swimmer, but it really burns the calories and is way better than beating myself up on the treadmill!!!!!
Lorra, where are you, I miss you...
Have a great day you guys.

Hello ladies!

T ~ I feel so loved and missed Your back doing WW huh? No meetings just the points? I was thinking of doing sugar busters but I can't not have my white potatoes...I don't care for sweet and I know that wouldn't last. I'm back to tracking today. I just can't not track or I give myself the green light to eat more. I don't feel so hungry all the time though so I feel I did something right cutting out the sugar, bread and pasta out for a while.
You guy know what is funny about the smoothies I never even had one before....... until my sister in law got me addicted to them. I always thought they would be something like fruit soup LOL! We started a gym membership together with a little smoothie shop in the gym Whenever we would push ourselves working out we would treat ourselves to a smoothie. Then it seem to become a regular thing everytime we went out we would go looking for a smoothie. We of course had to find other places to get them when we didn't go to the gym..... so I've had them from many different places. When money got tight I decided to start making them myself....it took a few nasty testers before I got a recipe I liked. I like them cold so I always add frozen fruit.....and fruit is easier on the blender than ice. All this smoothie talk has me wanting one think I will have one for breakfast If you like smoothies on the sweet side you can add those frozen sugared strawberries...thats what I started mine out with. Most places add a lot of sugar to their smoothies so it took some time to find a more WW friendly smoothie.

B~ Wow seven pounds is great. My weight watchers leader even said to try something new for a while when you stop losing. She was telling all us flexers to give core a try for a week if we happen to get stuck. I guess I sorta did that. I feel more in control now. Those first two days were hard I have to admit I was soooo craving sugar it wasn't funny.

I went to the store yesterday to pick up a few things and found single servings of veggies. I bought some of those to eat as snacks instead of those 100 calorie packs.

T- That is great!!

L: glad you're back! I love fruit soup! I forgot about it I think I might make some!! I make my smoothies with vanilla soy or almond milk to give a bit of sweetness. I'm thinking about adding some spinach but i am afraid of it!!

I was pretty happy with my Fat smash results especially considering TOM is here!! Dr. Ian Smith who created the diet also suggests returning to phase 1 anytime you plateau. He has a whole chapter on plateaus and what to do to break them.

Enjoy your veggies!!

Raw spinach isn't bad if you add a little. I used to put it in my salads...you can hardly taste it. I'm not sure about adding it to a smoothie though. If thats the only veggie in it you might be about to taste it. The V8 fruit juice I buy has sweet potatoes (which I don't care for) and carrots and you can't even taste it. Try a very little to see how much of it you can taste.

I happen to love spinach. I love it cooked and or raw I'm just not sure about putting it into a smoothie. But i will try next week. I am having a banan strawberry smoothie as we speak! (type)

[Losing4another]

I never tried it cooked .....I never liked the smell so I never have tried it cooked. Dh doesn't care for it so I don't make it. I told ya I was picky I don't like a lot of seafood because it stinks Yea I need help. One of my sisters is a picky eater too so maybe it was just the way my mom cooked...Who knows
I had a smoothie too...not for breakfast though as planned. I had mine this afternoon after picking up DD from school. This one had peaches, red grapes, strawberries, and melon YUMMY!

Okay I have been too busy pigging out to even check my email!! I am so disgusted with myself!1 Yesterday I couldn't stop eating and this morning I feel sick!! I'm not even weighing in because if I do it will probably upset me!! So Today I am doing strict phase 1 of FS and trying to get back on track!!

I was down 2 lbs last week but who lnows now!! since Friday it has been a downward spiral!!

L- your smoothie sounds great!! My mom always made spinach or rapini and she cooked it with onions and a tonne of spices so all you smeeled were the spices it was sooo good. But I have never made it like that!! Soemtimes I make a spinach casserole or quiche.

How is everyone doing?

[Losing4another]

Hi ladies~

T~ How are you doing with WW? Did you try fat smash yet?

B~ I hear you I'm there too. I was so hungry yesterday I just ate everything. I think it's the sugar back in my diet Easter has the sugar back in the house and my sweet Dh made DD and I baskets. I love him for it but the candy is killing me. I seem to do great during the day then pig out by night.

The spinach does sound like it would be good. I do love onions raw or cooked.

[2beautiful2Bfat]

Okay so the past 2 days were good and I am down 2 lbs! I'm so happy because now I am no longer obese!! Yay!!

[2beautiful2Bfat]

Ps
I still haven't tried the spinach and it looks like I'm getting a new baby!! I was asked to foster a 6 month old! long story but she will be here in 1 hr!! I'm running around like a chicken with her head cut off trying to get a stroller crib car seat etc!! I only had about 24 hrs notice they called yesterday at 12 and she will be here at 9!!

[Losing4another]

Way to go ...I sure do hate that word "obese". I wish they could call it something else.
WOW! Congrats on getting a new little one in the house. How exciting Keep us updated

[bgbrwnys101]

But I am here and know I need to get back ont rack, the problem is I just cant get myself to care enough to not eat the crap. What should I do???

[Losing4another]

Hey T Sorry to hear about your father....but maybe we have the same one Mine has been that way for a long while now so I can't blame anything on him anymore ... I'm at the point that I don't care about my father that is. You have to think why you wanted to lose weigh in the first place and go back to that. I've been doing good during the day then messing up the whole day at night....Most likely because i don't track and that is what keeps me in control. I have to start doing it or stop complaining... I guess
