A little about me...Jackie 33, married with 1 kid.

This will be my 3rd time turning to weight watchers for weight loss. The first time was back in 2005, second time was after a divorce in 2007. Then I kept most of the weight I wanted to lose off. Got married in 2011 and in 2012 I became pregnant. Now I have a wonderful son and 30 lbs of left over baby weight. I gained 70lbs when pregnant so it's really no surprise.

I started WW online this time because I do not have the time to go to meetings with the baby. I decided I would do my best and if I was hungry I will eat and will eat my weekly pts and any activity points. I had 11 weekly points left at the end of the week and gained 8 activity points which I also ate. I was actually kind of scared to eat so much, but they say you can so I did, and I made sure they were all healthy choices.

When I stepped on the scale this morning I expected to be the same weight because of all the points I ate, but I lost 2.6lbs! I don't expect the same level of loss next week, but I am really happy. I did feel hungry, but I always do when I'm on a diet. All I do is think of food, but I didn't feel deprived. In any case I just wanted to share my good news because I am so excited!

WTG on your 2.6, Jackie! Lovelovelove WW!

WTG Jackie! WW rocks, and it is a plan we can stick to our entire life with no problems.

I've always thought about joining WW, just didn't have the nerve to go to meetings, maybe I"ll check out the WW online site. Congratulations on your weight loss! I think lots of folks think you need to starve to lose, it's just not so I remember seeing a dietitian back in 2006 and she gave me an eating plan to follow and I remember thinking, OMG...too much food...but it added up to 1800 cals a day.
