Here is to getting back on track. I still feel like a fat cow so I have to do something to get the scale moving again. I don't want to know the damage I have caused the last few days, but I will have to face up to it at some point, like in the morning...lol!! I hope everyone is OP this week and will be big losers. My goal this week is to exercise and drinks tons of water.
Have a great day.....still a proud Seminole!!!!!!!
I am mom of 4 sons (age 1, 7, 14 and almost 18) married, 38 years young. I am a NV girl living in southern FL. Doing WW at home. Just restarted counting points about 2 weeks ago. (I did it before I got pg with #4) I have a walking goal of 30 hours to be done btwn Thanksgiving and Xmas.
I am into crafts, reading (chick lit, contempory and historical romances mostly) and puzzles. Ok, that is me in a nutshell!
Flower: Welcome to our group. If you would like join us on the November activity log where you can post your workouts. If you have any questions just ask.
Jeanne: I love your avatar!!! Still feeling like a cow? I am
The weather here is horrible today and tonight it is suppose to drop into the 40's.....it is 70 right now, but raining like crazy. I really wanted to get out and get a walk in, but that will have to wait until tomorrow. Off for now to plan the evening meal. Have a great day!!!
Hi everyone.....I know it has been a while since I posted. I have completely been off track for so long that I don't know how to pick the pieces up again. I have given up until after the holidays. This is just a stressful time of year and counting points is a stress I don't need to add to my plate. I have been so busy helping with my kids schools that I haven't had time to turn around lately. Which is a good thing because then I am not at home eating myself silly. Right now my biggest problem is the soda. I can grab a can of soda so fast and be on the go. I need to get more water and I just don't like to do it. I know that is a HUGE mistake.
Just know I am still out here and I am OK for now. After the holidays I plan on getting myself in order and joining the gym and starting from scratch again. I will still visit here and keep in touch because I still want to watch what I put into my mouth just not count my points.
Thanks for missing me! You guys are such great support!!!!
Welcome Flower, You sound like me with all those boys. I have 3boys ages 11,13, and 15!
Today, I did ok today. I need to change for the better.I have to admit I wanted to eat everthing without being responsible and then expect to lose weight. How insane is me ? I want to lose weight , but I didn't want to change my habit the way I eat food. You can only live in denial for only so long until your body gives you a bad warning to say something is wrong here. My knees are aching so bad to the point that I hate going upstairs for anything. So, I really made up my mind that I am no longer is going to stuff my feelings down, and I have to change the way that I look at food and how I used it . No more shortcuts. You have to go through the middle before you get to the end. btw I am just venting here. Thank you for listening
Thank you for the welcome! I know I do better when I find a regular group to post/share with.
A NSV today, I had fast food, didn't necessarily pick the lowest calorie/lowest fat but I still stayed within points! I knew I had to cut back elsewhere during the day and I did! That is such a huge thing for me.
I'm still trying to recover from Turkey day and that weekend following. The damage is done and I will just work on trying to get back to my ticker wt which I refuse to change.
Sisterofthegroom: Congrats on the loss At least someone is losing around here...lol!!
Shay: I refuse to change my ticker too. I just feel gross right now!!
Synergy: Hang in there girl! No bad warnings for me I am just sick of being fat.
Today I have been OP and I feel good about that. I hope all of you are back OP too! I really want to make my Christmas goal and if I am not OP....I won't make it. Off to down another bottle of water.
We went out for a late breakfast and for dinner yesterday. Let's just say every single 35 flex points is used up for the week. I counted them all, recorded them. I don't think I went over just used them up. lol It was darn good, but now I gotta behave the rest of the week. I also ate all the points with in meals, normally I use them snacking. This was real food. Too much of it, but real food anyways. Most of them coming in from protein.
I did however get in over 2.5 hours of walking in! Perhaps that is why I was so hungry at dinner. Just waiting for hubby to wake up so I can walk by myself. My back aches from pushing the stroller. {or that is what I am blaming it on anyways...truthfully I just want to walk someplace without sidewalks}
I am really proud of myself today. I did not overeat, I stayed focous on my plan. So, hopefully If I can keep this up , maybe my ticker can start moving. Have a good night ladies
Hi!
My name is Terri. I am a lifetimer on WW. I lost 50 back in 85' and then
a year later got pregnant. I have 3 kids. Brittany,21, Brandon,16 and Bradley,14. I have a wonderful husband named Bruce. I was 202 pounds and lost 55 back in 2003 but I have gained back 30 of those pounds and I need to stop. My goal for this holiday season (We travel to Ohio) is to stay the same or lose a couple but I will not deprive myself of regional favorites that I can't get here in North Al. I will have priorities when it comes to what I eat. I plan on being at goal by May.
It was great reading all your posts. I used to go to meetings but I wasn't trying hard enough to pay all that. I am doing it at home now and I have been doing pretty well.
Can't wait to get to know you all. Terri
I had the hardest time figuring out what I wantd for breakfast this morning. I definately need to go shopping. Ended up with a low point yogurt with a cup of kashi good friends cereal poured on top. lol Hopefully I can be a bit more creative for lunch.
Hope the weekend is good to everyone! I played mini golf last night. Today is son's soccer game (park walking) and tomorrow is car show and beach walking .
