Well I'm in for Ground Hog's day challenge. Ground Hog's day is my birthday so I guess I would be falling flat on my face if I weren't in for it. Since it is only about 2 weeks away though I guess I'll have to set a very modest goal for then. How about 4 pounds? That is 4 pounds after I meet my next goal (which will be in one more pound). So five total from where I'm at now.

Huntersmommy: let us know ....
Sherry: Thats a great goal....you can do it!!
I had a pretty good day with food, since I knew I was cooking a big dinner tonight, I went light during the day. I also had 2 plates of salad to get filled up so I wouldnt eat too much of the "food" Hope everyone is having a good day as well

i'm pregnant omg i cant believe this i got pg without medical intervention my specialist said it would never happen we are on top of the world

That is so great to hear. I'll be praying that everything goes well for you.

OMG Angie... I'm so happy for you!!!! I remember that's all I wanted to be from the time I held my first doll... A Mommy!!!!!!!

Bet you are floatin on air girl!!!!!!!!

& Hey... what better way to eat right.

My office manager just left to have her son... but during the pregnancy, she did WW points... (following her leader's instructions... ) She only gained 14 pounds thru the whole pregnancy... & once she has this little one... she will have LOST weight!!!

Eating balanced meals for her meant no morning sickness... & she worked right up til last week, (she was due yesterday... no word yet as to when he will choose to arrive!!!)

Sooooooo Happy for you!!! Many many blessings for you & your family!!!!

MJ : >

hmm mj bout staying on the pts while pg do you know how many pts she allowed herself to have a day if she still ate the 35 a week. i am on cloud nine will feel tons better once i hear that heartbeat for the first time i should be due sept 19th somewhere in there thanks for the well wishes girrls. losing all this weight must have done the trick to finally do this on our own.

girls you can all my your goals happen yoou can do this we can do this girls. i'm still here for each and everyone of you.

Angie... I know that her counselor let her eat more points... & told her she HAD to eat all the extra 35 pts per week, because the baby was growing & taking her nutrients... She really did eat well... & always kept fresh fruit in her office. She did really, really well... & went from needing to lose weight to being "all baby"... Her baby will be over 9 pounds I'm sure... & she had energy til just recently.... now she's just ready for him to come out!!!!

I will ask her... but in the mean time... just eat healthy & try not to overdo... I'm THRILLED for you!!!!

Christine... Great goal girl... congrats on eating so well keep us updated.

DJmommy... Thanks for the encouragement.... we all need to take baby steps, one day at a time.

& you wanted to know where I'm from? Where the eye of Katrina passed... The North Shore of New Orleans!!!! or Katrina Land... the other third world country!!! What about y'all???

Sherry What a great BD present you will give yourself... I know you can do this.


We will all do this if we stick together & keep ourselves motivated.....

One step at a time... one meal at a time... Yea Us!!!

CONGRATS ANGIE TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY!!!!!!!!!! Boy that was fast!

Sparkel, Im from NWFL Panhandle also known as hurricane alley since we continue to get hit over and over with hurricanes and tropical storms, none as horrible as Katrina.

Djmommy glad to see your doing great! Welcome to our other newbies.

Ive been doing really well, but resisting temptation is getting so much harder, so im having to look deep inside to keep the motivation going. I know I can do this have done it before. The weekends are the hardest for me. My DF has no clue on the concept of healthy and has the biggest sweet tooth so he always making a cake or brownies, buying cookies, or ice cream. He about died last night when I told him that this is just not working and im just going to have to leave him, if he continues to bring in my favorite desserts for the next few weeks. So he agreed until I can get into this where I can say no and not think twice about a dessert then he can bring them home again.

Hope everyone has a great OP day! Heading to do grocery shopping for the week. Wish me luck going to Super Walmart(yuck) with all 3 of my kids by myself!

anna i know i cant believe it we tried for 16 months to get pg with hunter and it was fertility drugs that eventually got us pg and this time just boom. i'm so thankful

mj thankyou for the advice with the pts. i def9intely dont want to gain the 108 pounds i gained when i got pg with hunter so i need tto behave myself and maintain that i'm not eating for two which is what i had with hunter and i ate everything and all the time.

Oh my gosh hunter mommy I am soooooooooooo happy for you. What a terrific blessing. With your motivation I am sure you will not gain all that weight back. You are already eating healthy daily that you will continue. You can also continue to work out.I saw this girl the other day. and I noticed how remarkable she looked and she was preg.Just walking on the tred. What terrific news.

I do not know how to do the paragrapgh thing, so I started a new one. Plus I did not want to complain on huntermommys great news area. I almost bombed it today. I stink... I had afew chips,avery small oatmeal cookoie, avery small piece of pizza, smaller than a deck of cards.It all tasted so yummy. I have not had carbs in 14days so you can imagine. Anyway I did not work out today or yes and tom I will not either... AHHHHHHHH.On a better note I did lose 1 pd, I can not weigh myself tom I will be so disappointed if I gained any back.... I have decided to stay on phase 1 until friday. Than dh is taking me out for my bday.I am looking forward to it. I can not wait to have some wine and eat. I will hav e fish but I am not going to hold back entirely.No bread of course,I will try to stick with it as best as I can. This is the first time we have been out since we moved in Aug. Boy do we need a date night.I miss that so much. Anyway you all are doing great. A new week is upon us.....LETS ROCK
