Good morning!!!!
Thanks for starting the new thread, Karen. Congrats on your WI- and that you have stayed OP for so long! TOM will be over, sooner or later and the scale will go down more then too. Hope that the cramps subside........big hugs!
Ricci- great to hear from you! Are you hosting the family reunion?
Sounds like a lot of fun- guess your Aunt is setting things up. Is it being catered- or do you get the chance to make something really healthy to make the day go easier? And thanks for the info in the Tae Bo- I have often wondered about those tapes and if they were any good.
Jen- aw I enjoy reading your posts.....never long winded!!!!!
Spryng-you can eat normal on WW- it is a portion control game and making choices that is all. Remember you have those 35 flex points!!!! Use them!!!!!!! And you can gain points with activity too, ok? WW is about living- not some oppressive overly restrictive system.
Got my walk in this am- a wee bit slower than normal, but it felt good. It was nice and cool
. Did get to WW-and I weighed in-- gained 1.4# Which considering that I am wearing heavier clothes and TOM is around the corner, I almost consider a loss.
Todays meeting was about our weight loss goals- why we want to lose. Laura was quick to point out that (at least for me at my age and after 3 kids) getting down to the weight you were at at 16 might be a good goal- but it could be a problem. We will never look like we did at 16.......
- good or bad!! But she said that if you are not losing weight then it is because your goal is not motivating you enough. I can relate to that- for me I am starting to look normal(from my swollen 181
)- and I feel pretty good and I am out of plus sized clothes. Gotta come up with a good reason to get these last 10 # off.......... Something that motivates me enough. And I am not sure what that will be- anyone have any ideas? (some had real health related issues- high blood pressure, cholesterol problems, I am on BP meds, but it is under control and my cholesterol is great).
Well, gotta go- see ya later!!!!!!
