Well, Vickie, I'm new to the board myself. I thought of Nurtrisystem a while back. I've been doing Core and SBD. Both are similar. Right now I'm tracking and counting points. I was eating too many snacks. I have the portions down okay, but at night, I get bored, etc. and food fills the void. My snacks were healthy, but a calorie is a calorie. I wish you the best with Nurtrisystem.

Please stay. Support is great, no matter what plan you are doing.

I've been playing games on here all morning. I want to get my hair cut today, so I need to get moving.

Hi Sammi and welcome back. The foods you mentioned are my favs too. I love Core/Simply Filling. Momentum/counting pts is not for me, but I'm doing it for a couple weeks, to get control of my snacks. I was stalled for over 5 months, but I started tracking last week and the scale has finally moved again. Nothing is right or wrong. It's whatever works for you.

Hope everyone is having a splendid day.

Hi Paula. Glad DD is back to normal. You have accomplished a lot today. I need to make some veggie soup for lunch.

Hi chickies! I'm trying to get caught up on everyone since the Christmas break, but I'm sooooooo busy. I have been exercising and half-heartedly doing core. I may have lost one of the pounds that I gained over the holiday, but I'm not trying very hard. I am planning to get to a meeting to pick up the new material. Hopefully that will get me motivated.

Vickie, stay here with us!

I hope all of you are doing well and have not frozen, yet. Nashville is cold, but I can't imagine the weather that you all "northerners" are getting. Stay warm!

Hi:

Vickie, now why on earth would anyone ask you to leave the board? Pox on such thinking, if anyone is thinking it!

Stay here and participate, we need you.

Just a thought about food: I love oatmeal but I think that when I get hungry around noon the hunger is more intense if I've had oatmeal, as opposed to eggs, for breakfast. That's OK, I'll eat my oatmeal and have lunch really ready. But, I've really noticed that the last two days. Must be a carb and protein thing.

BBL,
Rhonda

Rhonda, why not have your oatmeal and then a boiled egg as a mid morning snack? Or have some yogurt? Add in a protein mid morning may help. Just a thought..

PAM-Congrats on your 1.6 also,you're so close to goal I wish I were with you.Thanks for I hope that I will be able to continue this tend making the scale go downward.


SAMMI-Some how I not a fan of the Momentum either. I like the old core better. Like you said its stricter and I think I need a program like that. I found that the new plan you have to track with points & I don't like tracking either. Just stay on the core if that what worked for you.

VICKIE-Of course you can stay with us,I hope that your new plan will work for you.I heard so many things about Nutra system,pros & cons but mostly pros.I like the portion control of the plan.


PAULA-Glad to hear that your DD is back to school and feeling better.Hope we don't get the :brr:bitter cold :brr:weather that they are predicting for Thursday. We're having veggie barley soup tonight.

SLOANE-I'm sure you must have lost something,sorry that your not really into the core. Hope you getting back to the meeting will help motivate you back to OP,and just in case here are some :dust: vibes going your way.

RHONDA-That's odd,you won't thing that would happen as oatmeal has fiber in it & it should keep you from hunger pains. But if you find that eggs curb the hunger by all means go back to a filling breakfast.


Have a nice evening se you in the morning.

Just a quick "HI"
Have to go and finish dinner. Being very bad tonight. Having pizza. Homemade. And not core. But will use my weekly points for this.
I didnt go and read the post real good. But see you were posting what you had for breakfast.
Well today I made Fiber One pancakes. And two small pieces of canadian bacon. You know that didnt stay with me. I was surprised. Guess I will go back to my Shredded Wheat.
I did see where some had a loss. CONGRATS. That is wonderful.
I had a loss this week also. Lost 2 lbs.
It is snowing here right now. And we are suppose to be getting some colder weather in. I hear the wind picking up. So must be bringing in the colder weather.
Well I will get off here for now.
Will be back later.
coco

Just another quick check in. Got clothes in the dryer. They should be just about done.
Hope everyone has a great week.
I am thinking of each of you.
coco

Sloan, I bet that you get back to it soon.

A boiled egg for a snack sounds like a good idea. I'll try it.

night all,
Rhonda

Hi y'all
I managed to stay OP yesterday and have been OP today, so far. I think I need some new recipes, and I know I need to keep the freezer stocked with core lunches. One thing that I have not been keeping up with is wpa's. I know that slows the weight loss down when I don't keep up with them.

Rhonda and Maryann-thanks for the words of encouragement!

:wave: to the rest of you chickies!

Vickie, I'm so happy for you that you are trying something new. Be sure to let us know how it's working for you. (You know I've been doing multi-programs over the last couple of years and have still posted here.) You're right. This is a wonderful thread. I think we all realize that we have to do what works best for us. Congratulations! You and Jim will do great. I just know it.

Rhonda, will I fit in your luggage? I'd love to go with you.

Pam, congratulations on losing. I admire your "to it"ness. How exciting to be so close to goal.

Sloan and Sammie, welcome back. I think most of us had setbacks during the holidays. Oh, well, life goes on.

I'm really anxious to see how I do at wi Friday after our trip to Houston last weekend. It's really been a long long time since I've been this excited about being on program.

Hi everyone. Well, we hada 26 people show up for our first at work meeting. Its great to have such a big group! I only gained 1 pound from the last time I officially weighed in - back on December 10th. So, I'm happy with that. I've set my tracker to be looking at just this session. I'm very excited to be on program and back to meetings. I feel just like you Sandra! I hope this excitement allows us both to be successful.

Sloan, one meal at a time! I'm glad you are sticking to program.

Well, don't have much time right now. Got to run. BBL

Sandra, come on up. I'll pack you between my passport and the Obama memorabilia!

Paula, that's great, only one pound gained. I have WI tomorrow and I'm hoping for at least a pound off. :crossed:

I had oatmeal for breakfast and a boiled egg a few hours later...it worked. I was not ravenously hungry.

Well, hold on folks...it was -2F here this morning without the windchill. DH drove me to the subway so I wouldn't freeze. I've come home early to work from here and he picked me up again. It's now 13F, with colder temperatures predicted for tomorrow. D.C. is going to feel like the tropics next week ;)

Rhonda

Paula, I hope our enthusiasm carries us, too. I've had some weak moments this afternoon, but that's part of life.

Rhonda, that's deadly cold. Be careful.

Hello everyone,

Just a quick flyby. Have been really busy, but eating has been good staying with healthy Simply Filling foods. I'll try to catch up on all of you tomorrow. It is supposed to get very cold here tonight (not as cold as many of you are having to the N & NW of us) so nothing planned tomorrow.

Have a good evening and those of you in the colder places stay warm.
