Default I'm Still Here Too!

Hey, Christian, glad you started us over!
How is your week going so far?
Mine has been good- OP for 3 days in a row, with at least 10km of walking each one. This is VERY good for me, considering I have had difficulty sticking to the plan this time around! I am counting down the days until my job here is done- then I can rejoin my WW meeting and the gym- not to mention move myself and dd home to dh!

Glad to see we are up and running again!!!! Let's see if I can remember.....I was going to lose 20 lbs by VD....after a 15 lb gain over the holidays.....let's just say I enjoyed myself! I weigh in on Friday mornings so I did today and Iwas down 5 lbs already but not surprised because the initial lose will just be the water weight and crap from the holidays, it will be slower now!

I also was going to go to the Y or exercise 4 days a week. I run my weeks from Friday to Thursday....so I only got in 2 days this week, but I plan on going this weekend, so I will start a new count this weekend.

So there you go..... I am on my way again!!!!

Hi Guys,
I'm here too. Am doing WW's and counting all my points. Eating has been a little heavier than I am aiming for, but I am exercising better than I had been. I knocked off 17# in 2003, and am hoping to knock off another 40# this year. In the short run, I am hoping to knock off 6# from Jan.1- Feb.14th. I know I can do it.
Good luck to us all.
Judy

Hey all, glad to see we are coming together again!
I am also doing a combo program- trying to combine WW with general healthy lifestyle, so that once I reach goal again I can stay there with less difficulty! I really don't want to count pts forever!
I am trying to count pts during the week and just eat healthy on the weekend. It hasn't been too bad this weekend, since dd passed the flu on to me! Oh well, maybe it will give me some much needed extra help.
My V-Day goals were: to lose the 11lbs I gained over Christmas. This will take me from 176 down to 165.
Have a good weekend!

Alright My goals... I had gained a couple pounds over the Holidays so I am starting January at 183...

1.) Exercise 5 days a week at least 30 minutes, 3 days a week 1 hour.
2.) NO CANDY!!! Eat more salads and watch the fat!!
3.) Lose 15-20lbs...12 of the 183 is newly gained weight (the last 3months) so should be easier to take off!!!

Weight in...
1/2- 183
1/9- 181
1/16-
1/23-
1/30-
2/6-
2/13-

I'm on and in. How about 7# for lala? I have no idea how much I gained while travelling, but my skirts say 3, so if I get rid of 3# of fluff, then that'll be only one lb a week.

I have a trip to London next week (urgh) and then a couple of short hops and then I'm good until my Valentine's day with my girlfriends in London. They are all doing WW or some sort of exercise thing, so it'll be fun to see how well we look.

Hi all
Sorry I was absent, was away for a super long weekend.
Well, good to see that you're all so ambitious. My goal was to lose 11 pounds and I have already lost 2. I have 9 more to go before Valentine's Day. If I keep it up I should make it. I'm exercising daily, and eating within my points. I don't use my flexpoints or activity points. So hopefully it will come off a bit faster, or should one use those points?
Have a good evening all.

Hey Diana!!!
Missed you girl!!
I would leave it up to you on the flexpoints, but be sure to eat enough, if you dont eat enough it can do more harm than good. But since you are eating all your points that shouldnt be a problem

Well guys I was weighed and measured at Curves and lost inches all over and 2 pounds...so I am VERY excited I know we can reach the goals we have set.
So keep up the great work ladies

I'm in on the challenge, even though I'm very new here on the WW boards I'm going to say my mini goal for V-Day is 6 pounds lost, which will be 1.5/week. I want to start with attainable goals so that I can have some success in the beginning! LOL! If I could lose 1.5lbs/week for 52 weeks.... Wow, I can't even begin to tell you how I'd feel! It would be absolutely incredible!!! Obviously that wouldn't allow stumbles along the way, so I want to keep going with mini-goals I think one of my hardest things will be making sure that I eat ENOUGH of the right things, and really journaling well....

What are the WW recommendations for Diet Coke?? That is my vice...

Alright the goals are still on mark, Yesterday I stumbled and had 5 Nestle Caramel Treasures, but after that I am alright, I exercised hard last night for 45 minutes and could have fallen over at the end, but it felt great!! I brought all my snacks for the day as well as breakfast with me to work today in individually measured out containers so I can't have "just one more". I also bought side salads for the week at McDonald's yesterday...then they are there and I don't have to go anywhere that will tempt me!

Last night I made the Pop Cake, with dt. sierra mist...it was fabulous, even the husband loved it!! So this is it, I have a bikini in mind at Target that I would love to buy and wear at the end of Feb. I may buy it a couple sizes smaller and hang it in the bedroom to look at for my goal??? :-)

Anyways, great motivation here, and I need all the help I can get with that!!!
