Unhappy Lifetimer needs weeky weigh in

Hi every one

I have been to this site many times, but I have never posted before, so I hope I am doing this right.

I have been a weight watcher for many years, now I am at life time so I don't have to weigh in but once a month, but because of medical problems and medications my doctor raised my gold weight, that is the weight I am maintaining, but that is not the weight I want to be. I still want to lose about 18 lbs.

I think my problem is weighing in once a month, for me to lose weight I need to weight in once a week, I need to be accountable and I am just not. I weigh in at the first of the month , then do what I want until my next weigh in. I go off program just enough to keep me from getting my weight where I want it be be.

So I think posting my weight once a week is something I need to do for me, but I don't want to post in the wrong place. I KNOW there is a place for life timers, but I don't feel I should be there since I am still trying to lose weight.
So if posting here is wrong let know.

But for now my weight is 143.5

I know that does not sound like a lot of weight but my family has a history of high blood pressure and diabetes and I have to admit I have a lot of cloths I would love to fit in to again.

Hey Webb,
I am a lifetime member and to keep me accountable I go to a weekly meeting and weigh in. I know I have to pay until I get back to goal, but it really helps to go to those meetings. Maybe you could try that. Hang in there; you can do it! Sloan

Webb, I'm also a lifetime member getting back to my goal. You only HAVE to wi once a month, but can weekly if you want. I'm 2.8pds from not having to pay. I do plan on continuing to go weekly to get at least 5 pds below goal. Please join us!! We are all looking to lose - doesn't matter if lifetime or not!

Looking forward to getting to know you.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, even though I am lifetime I do go to the meetings every week, I even sit in the front. I knew that I could step on the scale at the meetings, but I wanting some thing more. After reading your replies I called member services and talked to the lady. I told her the same thing I put in my post. Later that same day I went in and she gave me a weight card with my name and weight on it.

Now every week when I go to a meeting I can weigh in and have my weight recorded. It won't be an official weigh in because I still only have to weigh in once a month.

I am hoping this will help me get back on track

Once again thank you

Webb
