Yes, I posted on here a while back about starting over and after a series of bad events in my life I went south....fast.

I am starting over tomorrow morning. I am ready this time and want to post my stats here for motivation!

I plan on weighing myself in the morning and doing it once a week on Sundays.

Ok! Here we go!!!

Welcome back! It seems your life has been stressful! Glad you were able to get back here Keep it up

Old saying: "Fall down 9 times, get up 10", so as long as you've gotten back up, you're already on the road to success! Whoo hoo! Post often, and let us know how it's going.

Welcome back and I'm sure you will do great!

Ok...I weighed myself this morning...(vomit) Took before pictures in my new bikini (double vomit) and started the journey!

I am starting at 179 pounds. I am only 5'3 and I don't carry it that well so we will see what the week brings!

I planned all my meals and snacks so I can't cheat and have my journal ready. I also plan on waking up at 5:15 AM for a workout......

Wish me luck!

I figured out my 10% goal and I am striving to hit this- 17.9 pounds! I can do this! I got up this morning and did my workout....very tired at my desk right now but I will adapt!

I like the feeling of being in control of my eating... makes me a more pleasent person!

[Jane]

Weight Watchers now sets the first goal at 5%, so that will be just under 9 pounds for you. Very doable!! Also, yay for you, planning out everything ahead of time. The "in control" feeling is great!

[mommytomikey]

5% is MUCH more desirable at this point! I am going to strive for that first then. I am doing WW on my own right now. I joined about 6 months ago but am not able to afford to do it every week so I am attending at least 1 meeting a month and following what I learned the 5 months I was a member.


I did not realize they did 5% now! That is a little less intimidating because 17 pounds seems like it would take a lifetime!

Hey mommytomikie, I'm 170lbs and also 5'3 and also dont carry it well. If only we were taller haha I too fell off the wagon for 3 days!! Back on today though and exercised!! Good luck with the weight loss! I too find when I am in control of eating I am happier, especially when I exercise as well. I'm not feeling guilty and mad at myself for making choices I knew were wrong.

[mommytomikey]

Caleighsmommy- I know! I wish I was taller! I feel right now like if someone pushed me over I would "weeble" back up on my feet without a second thought!

I did good today. I did my workout, but my diet was a little off! I need to add my points up because I know I used some flex points, but I feel like I did not do too bad.

[Caleighsmommy]

Great job!!!
Don't you feel awesome when you have a good day? I know I do
Ahh don't worry about using some flex points, thats what they're there for!! I use them if I'm hungry, I'm after using them all the same day, going out for dinner as a treat and still lost weight. I also exercised today after being down 3.8 from this mornings weigh in I was really motivated to get my butt in gear. Keep up the good work!!

I also fell off the wagon and am getting back on. I tore a ligament skiing in February and it is slow to heal... But i rejoined weight watchers online and am gonna hit the treadmill tomorrow! Wish mme luck

[mommytomikey]

Goodluck and congrats to everyone! I just got my treadmill out of storage and put it in my office at home. No more excuses!!!!

I kind of cheated the last few days....I quit smoking and I was not watching my points but I am back at it. I needed something to take my mind off the smokes....food it was!

I can't wait to weigh in and see if I have lost anything!!
