Does anyone want to buddy up?
I could really use the extra person/people to talk to during the week.
Some one to give/ receive inspiration.

SORRRY!
My pc is acting crazy; it was slow so i just kept pushing send...
OOPPPS

LOL, that is something I would do! I would love to buddy up. I am doing WW points at home; just had surgery 5 weeks ago and have done okay with watching my points. I went to my sister in laws house this weekend and we ate junk and played cards so the scale showed a 4 pound gain from last Thursday- I had gotten down to 247, but now am 251. I also did not drink my water like I should have- too many sodas and wine. Are you attending WW meetings?

Hi Martha
I dont attend meeting; I wish I had the extra cash to; but dont.
You sound a lot like me; I have good intentions but sometimes dont follow threw. But I intend to this time! I really need this change in my life!
Since my mother died I have really lost all control of my life! And overeating is ONE MAJOR problem.

Today I have done well.
Well, this morning anyways.
BREAKFAST-I had a bowl of cereal (special K strawberry) and 1 cup of whole milk.
LUNCH- I will have a salad with cheese .
DINNER- ha vent decided yet.

Hi Queen
I have done well today also:
Bkfst- instant oatmeal and apple
Lunch- I made chicken salad- I had to weigh all the chicken and count all the ingredients and then measure the end result to get the points per serving- it ended up being 3 pts per 1/2 cup. I also like the Nature's own wheat bread with double fiber it is 1 pt for 2 slices.
I also hadn't decided supper yet- I have some Mahi Mahi in the freezer but that means that I'll have to do something different for my hubby- he doesn't like fish.
The WW meetings in our area conflict with my schedule, so I decided to use the money to join Shape Express. It is a circuit gym with cardio and classes and free weights and also has the dry heat saunas- that is the reward I get after the workouts.
I really feel like I can do this... I told my husband that I have succeeded in so many things in my life, but cannot get a grasp of my eating. I have stopped eating out as much and got rid of the sodas- I also only limit myself to one diet soda a day and most days now I don't even get that one. I just drink water. I do have to have my icecream- but I found the Publix brand light icecream is 3 pts per 1/2 cup and it is so good, it doesn't taste light.
Hope you have a good rest of the day, if you want to PM me, I will get an email notification and we can keep in touch that way also. Good luck!

hey chocolate ill be your buddy i could use the same help and i just restarted today i must do it this time!

All right ! We have a 3 way buddy system! Sounds GREAT.

Martha- i really know what you mean about getting control! Sometimes I feel like my life revolves around it! When I did strict diets I would become OBSESSED with food; AKA the food I COULDNT HAVE!
I also dont drink to much diet soda; I dont even buy it anymore!
But if we eat out I will have it.

My husband has TRULY been supportive; we works long days and after dinner we go for walks. Today we did a mile. I think that will be the furthest I will walk! His support really helps immensely.

andreaphilip3- Glad to have another buddy;

maybe we can all pm each other and send encouraging e-cards to each other?

Sounds great! Glad you had a great day. I stayed within points today, didn't have to borrow any from my weekly flex points. That is great that your husband is supportive. Mine also, he often has a hard time with giving me that push I need for motivation because he was overweight as a teenager and got a lot of ridicule; he never wants me to feel that he has a problem with my weight. But he supports anything I try and doesn't try to tempt me.
I ended up eating cabbage for supper; I cooked it with half of a smoked turkey wing- yum! So it was 4 points for a huge bowl. The 4 oz of turkey was all that I had to count.
Andrea- hope your day went well today.
Have a wonderful night, hope to hear from you all tomorrow.
PM me if you can.

welcome not 2!
hey choco and martha!
sounds like we all did great! heres to another day....cheers!!

I would love to buddy up. I totally can understand life getting and going out of control. My son was born 3 months premature and he spent the first year of his life in the hospital and came home on a ventilator. He is now off, but has a lot of health issues. So I understand stress.

I hope I can be a comfort as well as a buddy.

Tanya

I think 4 is a big enough number; and still keep ourselves close to each other and motivated..
