Michele is one of the highlighted weight loss people this week over at the main WW site.

I found her tips very insightful and inspiring.

I can't copy them here but go check them out for some good advice.

Can you post the link because i couldn't find it.

I think they have "rules" about no direct links either here or there - so just take out the spaces - I hope this fits the rules okay

wtg michelle!!!

When I dine out, I start with a tossed salad to fill myself up and then I only eat my main course until I'm satisfied. I never clean my plate.


My family members have always been "food pushers," so I have the phrase, "Everything was so delicious I can't eat another bite" at the ready when I dine with relatives.


At social gatherings, I've learned to only eat the foods that are "special." Chips and dip? Not special enough!


I try to remember that patience and persistence, not perfection, got me to goal. I'm not perfect and it's important to remember that.


I put together a top 10 list of reasons why I wanted to lose weight. I looked at it when I was feeling unmotivated. When I reached goal, I made my list of top 10 reasons to maintain. These lists remind me how important it is to maintain these healthy changes.


Mini goals are critical to those of us with a lot to lose. Those can be scale goals such as losing 20 or 30 pounds, or process goals, such as journaling successfully for three weeks in a row. And remember to reward yourself. For my 100-pound mark, I bought a gold bracelet that serves as an anchor to remind me of how far I had come

forgot who requested that, but there it is. go michelle!!!
