to 3FC, and especially to the Weight Watcher's forum. You will get lots of information, tips, and friendship here. Yes, one good thing about WW is that you can still enjoy your favorite foods. It's all about portion control, right? Have a look around, and if I can help you in any way, just let me know.

Kaz, you have a lot on your plate (not food I mean) and it's very difficult to lose "baby weight". I commend you for your efforts and wish you all the best on this journey.
I had a similar problem when my kids were young. Kids needs good and healthy foods and they snack frequently. I joined them with their snacking and I wasn't the one in need of all those calories.
I learned to substitute certain things at their snack time, like just coffee/tea/water and maybe a stick of gum. It's hard to do.
I also learned that I did not have to finish leftover food all the time. When my kids would leave perfectly good (not touched) food behind due to their smaller appetites, I felt a compulsion not to waste food. I learned to wrap things up and save them and also to make use of my freezer.
I still struggle. I am not at my all time high but I have been able to maintain and not continue gaining additional weight for a long time. Even putting a stop to more gains is a good thing.

Welcome to 3FC Kaz!! Boy, it sounds like you've got a lot going on there with your move and your kids! Best of luck!!

Welcome! I'm pretty new to WW myself but so far so good! Best of luck!

Welcome to the board and to ww! I love ww and this is my 3rd time and hopefully final time to join and kick these pounds away! Goodluck!

Welcome!

WW is great in that way! I love to be able to eat some of my favorite foods when I'm craving them and not have to feel like I've blown it! It's great!
