We've done modem tests this week too, and compared them to what we've had in the past, and its soooo much slower. I hate that our cable is in my name, so I'm the one who has to call them and complain about it, and while I know a little about computers and stuff, my boyfriend knows a whole lot more, and understands it better than I do... but I'm the one who has to deal with the stupid support techs.
Quite, Hopefully this will come across like I want it to, and not piss you off
I know in the past, I was always saying "I really don't eat that bad, why am I gaining all this weight" and its because I wasn't owning up to what I was really eating, and how much I was eating. When I started back up with WW that was one of my goals, to be honest with myself and count ALL points, even on the days I go way over. Because if I didn't, I know I would fail. Look back over your menus since you've started... see how many days that you actually followed the plan and stayed within your points. If you really were honest and stayed with in the points, then I can totally understand why you are frustrated and upset that your friends are loosing and you aren't. But if you notice that there are more days you went over, or didn't count, then maybe you should re assess what you're doing, and either re commit to following WW or think about changing to a different plan that you can stick to. Also look at the foods you are eating. For me, in the past, when I tried this, I wouldn't change the foods I was eating. I still had chips and cookies and all of that, then I'd be hungry at the end of the day because I wasted my points on small amounts of food... if that makes sense. I notice on the weeks where I have fruit and veggies in the house and eat that, and use points on those types of food, I feel more full and less hungry. I like with WW that you can still have those foods, but you still have to change how you eat, otherwise you're going to be hungry all the time, and be more prone to cheating. Like this week has sucked because I don't have any of those things in the house (cant go grocery shopping until Wednesday) and I've been hungrier and have been tempted to just take a break this week, and go back next week... but I didn't allow myself to do that. Because I want to succeed this time.I hope I didn't piss you off or anything, or come across as a know it all... cause I don't!!
Its just that this time, I want it to be different for me, and having that sort of mind set I tried to explain above is helping me sooo much.((((hugs))) because I sooo understand that jealousy and frustration!

I would just eat and eat and eat...I actually, at this point, kind of like the feelings of full and hungry! 
A story about a 21-yo girl in her junior year of college, who weighed 190 lbs and felt fat fat FAT all the time. She did Atkins for a few months, even after her grandmother died four days after Christmas; she kept to the diet. She went from 190 to 160. From a size 16 to a size 12. She was pretty well thrilled. And then summer came. And she took a few cheating days, you know...she figured she could handle a couple of carbs here and a couple there. Until she found herself eating ENTIRE bags of chips in one sitting and ENTIRE bags of Family-Sized Reese's pb miniatures in one sitting (this was a whole meal + dessert to her). Not only did she gain those 30 pounds she initially lost, but then she continued to balloon up to 211. She had heard all along the stories of people who cheated on the diet and gained back every single pound plus some, but she figured it wouldn't happen to her. No, not her. She was good, plus bad things like that couldn't touch her--she was young afterall.
I take those words seriously to heart.
It's the potty dance! YIPPEE FOR FRIDAYS!
