Became a Lifetime WW member today!
 

I got some great news at my weekly WW meeting--I became a lifetime member today! I feel very proud of my accomplishments. This 3FC forum has been a big part of my recent success; everyone has given great advice and been very supportive thru some challenging times.

Tonight we had a big family dinner at Rainforest Cafe to celebrate MIL's birthday. I split a broiled fish entree w/my son, ate some of the fish, 1 piece bruschetta and some steamed veggies. I ended up taking a lot of food home for tomorrow's lunch. It felt great that I knew when to stop. (Oh, I should also mention I had a Heinekin with dinner--best 3 points I have tasted in a long time! :lol: ).

The last time I posted, I said my goal was to become Lifetime by the end of this month. So I have to revise my plan now that I met the goal early.

Well, I feel just great. I know there will be obstacles down the road, but I feel capable of meeting the various challenges. I am at a weight that feels comfortable, my clothes fit and I am exercising a reasonable amount. Time to free up some space in my brain from constantly thinking about my weight.

Take care. :D

Congrats, Elana on making Lifetime at WW!!! It is such a great feeling to finally be at goal wt., isn't it? I made Lifetime at WW this past June, and I was sooo excited! I felt like running up and down the street telling anyone who would listen to this crazy woman!!! LOL :) Seriously, you have a right to feel good about yourself! Now the hard part is about to begin, or at least I think so. At first, when I made Lifetime, I was soooo worried that I would regain all my wt. back. So far, I have done fine, however, it is a never ending challenge to keep those unwanted pounds off forever. You can do it!!! Once again, congratulations Elana for a job well done!!! :)

Hi Carol! Good to see you again! :wave:

Elana ~~ :balloons: Congrats!!



I sometimes feel that I think of my weight MORE now than ever...But I'm not complaining, I like this weightloss more than anything So it's important to keep thinking in order to keep motivated and to keep the weight off...IMO...

:bravo:

Woo-hoo! Congratulations!

Anne

Congratulations!!

Keep up the food journal and the weekly weigh-ins (at least for a while). Oh, and relax just a little!

That is very good advice

I am planning to keep up with weekly weigh-in and meetings. I really like my leader; she is very supportive and has lots of useful suggestions. At this early stage, I think I need the accountability of the frequent check-in, and I don't own a scale at home (I use the "zippability" of my pants as my scale :lol: ).

Congrats!!!
I'm very happy for you!!! :)
