Help I've been living in denial
 

This thread is for all you ladies who saw your reflection one day and thought
"IS THAT ME?" :yikes: Are you ready to recognize yourself again? :carrot:
Well, its a new month a new year so lets start fresh. :goodscale

We welcome all new people :welcome2: and your ideas along with our old friends:grouphug: who have been with us on our previous thread.:goodvibes

We are here to encourage,:club: (just kidding) encourage, :hug: laugh,:lol: motivate :cheer: and most of all begin to "recognize ourselves again!":high:

I'm Kiwi,:wave: and my goal is to get down to 128 by my birthday Oct 24, 2007.:belly: After searching for many years for the "magic pill" :joker: I finally decided to join WW in Jan.:cp: I'm actually enjoying it very much.

That's all for now. I hope to hear from many of you who may have some wonderful ideas that we can do as a group to help get us motivated.:grouphug:

Kiwi

Okay tomorrow is the weigh in day. :crossed: I've done very well today. If starving myself is doing well. :rolleyes: Water, coffee and salad! What else could I do. :shrug: I have been bad all week. By that I mean I continued to go over my points even though I'm sure I used up my 35 points early on in the week. I'm not really sure because I didn't track like I should and that's why I'm whining now!:tantrum:

I promise I will track next week:^: .....I promise I won't cheeeeeeaaat next week:nose: .....well, at least stay within my extra 35 points for the week :devil: .... just let me looooose at least 1 pouuuuuund!!:stress:

Good Morning everyone
I did not get on yesterday but think this is a good idea You mentioned common things we can share Is it just going to be walking a pedometer is a good way to keep track of your steps Is ther any other ideas for common things we share ...like we all exercise and are eating healthy...I blew that last night for supper not the healthy just 2nd on everthing I was so bad but that was the first time since the begining of the year
Kiwi I was just thinking we could start a new thread every month just put the month behind your title "Help I have .... do you know what I mean?
Then everyone can post there goals for that month at the begining
My goals for this month are to lose 5 lbs, cardio exercise at least 3x/ week and track my steps Let me know what you think? Is Monday going to be our group weigh in still?

suz keep moving and losing Ladies :carrot:

Hi everybody! I know exactly how that feeling is. I joined a gym about 2 weeks ago and I was taking my first class, which meant I had to look at myself on a full body mirror and I tell you, I almost cried!
This week I've been good, I'm actually proud of myself. I just hope the willpower stays and I don't go off the wagon LOL. My biggest problem is my sweet tooth so I made sure I didn't buy any sugar. Does anybody have any suggestions on sweet stuff that's good for me? Thanks in advance.

Hi srqmomof2:welcome2:
I am a sweetaholic!!:cookie: :m: Big time. I joined WW and I've found I like alot of there sweet frozen stuff that you find at Walmart. WW food is actually called Smart ones. They have the smart ones strawberry shortcake!:whoo: oooooh real yummy, then there is choc. elcair, key lime, Oh and Kelloggs has come out with a product called Kugos. They are yogurt covered fruit balls. They come in different flavors and are great when you are wanting something sweet! :D

Suz, I was thinking the same thing about a new thread each month. New goals etc. Sounds good. I went to Ft. Walton today looking for a wedding dress for my daughter. I got alot of walking in. I wish I could have remembered to count my steps.:running: Where can I get a meter? If we do that we should each have a goal that says how many steps in that month. does that make sense? What does everyone think.

Hey, I went to my meeting and I lost 3 more pounds!!:carrot:

I hope everyone else is doing well and I'll chat later

Kiwi

Kiwi I got one of my pedometers from chatelaine on line it was free if you joined there weight loss program and I can't remember where i got the other one I am sure if you search some online weight loss sites you might find otherwise check out drug store health sections
they recomend 10000 steps /day for good health that means 300000 steps per month and I still have to find my pedometer i loaned one out to a friend and I am 4 days behind :fr:
any other ideas from anyone else?

Keep moving and losing Ladies suz :carrot:

Hi everyone,

As far as my weight loss. Actually, I've only loss 2 pounds.:goodscale The other pound was from taking my shoes and jacket off. :high: I want to lose 2 pounds next week so I can put my shoes back on. That way when I have a really bad week I can take my shoes back off!!!:lol:

I've done really well for 2 days as far as tracking my points. I had 25 points yesterday. (3 over) And today I've had 20 so far. (I get 22) I may have popcorn later tonight. I think what I will do is when I run out of points I will go to bed. :^:

Suz, Kelloggs has this thing that you can order a cheap version of a pedometers from them with a box top and $3.00 If I can figure out how to order it on line I may get one.:running:

Kiwi

I've got a GNC Calorie Pedometer in transit from drugstore.com. It measures steps, distance and calories burned. It's $14.99. They also have other styles there.

I spent the weekend indoors (it's frakkin' cold here) so I walked/lightly jogged through 3 rooms of my house. :p Had the radio and some cds on and shook my booty, too. :carrot:
Disco doesn't suck. Disco makes great exercise music. :dancer: How could ya not get up and do the YMCA? :D

Welcome Elle,:welcome2:
So you are a star trek fan and disco lover? Hummm? Either you love retro or you are telling your age!:rofl:

I'm going tomorrow and see if I can find a meter in one of our drugstores. So how many minutes should a person walk a day? Suz did you say 30,000 steps a month? 10,000 a day? Yikes. Okay maybe I need to start small like 3000
a day. :D

good morning Ladies
Yes Kiwi I said 10000/day They figure about 2500 is a mile I checked out how far I walk at work in a shift and it was pretty close to 2500 I was shocked

Well i weighed in this morning and did not lose any weight and I was bad :devil: only friday night for supper and yesterday afternoon I will have to work harder this week :lifter: :running: :exercise: :carrot: I was talking to my brother and he has also lost some weight about 35 or 40 lbs a little to much for his height he now weighs 160 and he is 6ft tall he asked how i was doing and I told him he told me to keep up the good work

it snowing and blowing here so I hope I can make it to exercise class this morning

Keep moving and losing Ladies suz :carrot:

I am Danni and I have always had a weight problem, my entire 40 years on this planet..even at birth I weighed a whoppin 11lbs...:rofl: I have tried many many diets and I have had some weight loss and then gain it back plus some :yikes: I am currently on the HMR Healthy solutions program and have lost close to 40lbs. :dance: I could not be happier. I am hoping :crossed: that this IS the last "diet" I am ever on :shrug:

Well today (Monday) is my weigh in and you guys from the "old" thread know that I had "girls weekend" this weekend and was concerned about cheating and weight gain...:yikes: well I got on the scale....:goodscale: and I lost 2lbs! whoo hoo....:carrot: :spin: :cp:

Absolutely, sure, yes and that, too! :p I'm 41. :)

Thanks for the welcome! My goals for February:

1) Lose 8-10 pounds (1 down so far but I'll take anything!) :D
2) Try to increase my 10 minute bursts of exercise several times a day to 15-20 minutes :exercise:
3) To use my soon to arrive pedometer to help increase my walking, even if it's indoors, which in this weather, it sure will be. :running:

I'm about to pick up my grand daughter but then I'm going to see if I can find me a meter. Maybe Walmart might have one. I'm curious as to how much I walk a day.

Wish me luck finding one. Oh and I have all the star trek tv shows. They are soo old.( VHS. )

Hello Ladies,

I am new here and was living in denile for a long time. I need some help getting started. I know I need to lode weight, but this time I don't know where to start. This past weekend I tried on all my jeans and out of 10 pairs only two fit, i wanted to cry. I just started WW and I have already cheated. I really wish that I could get my mouth wired shut or lose my taste buds:dizzy: So if ya have any suggestions please let me hear'em :D thank so for the help:D

have a groovey day:carrot:

Welcome Mamaof2,:welcome2:

I'm doing WW also just started 3 weeks ago. :carrot: I love it but I do go to the meetings. How about you? ;)

I have a great chicken fajitas soup that is only 3 points for 2 whole cups!! It taste wonderful!! Plus it freezes well! Let me know if you want it.

Also I get alot of Kellogg brand stuff because I'm a muncher!! :corn: I have a sweet tooth.:m: :cookie: So I get Kellog protein water, Yogos, mini wheats strawberry delight and now there nutri grain strawberry yogurt!! :D
I really do focus on eating healthy meals but if I need to snack instead of blowing it with junk food I eat low point items. Yogos is only 2 points for a bag and they are sweet and yummy!!:hyper:

Tonight I made a Veg soup with meatballs.:stir: 6 points per 2 cup serving. Limit 6 meatballs. Very good. This is stuff the whole family can eat and enjoy.:hun:

I found my pedometer at Walmart for 3.48. :running: They had a more expensive brand for 10.00 with a radio but I figured I'd try this out first.

I'll chat later
Kiwi

Hi :wave: Mommaof2:

Welcome :welcome:
I am doing HMR Healthy Solutions you can learn more about them at:
http://www.hmrprogram.com.

I do not work for them I am just a HAPPY DIETER. :cp::carrot:
Alot of hospitals have this weight loss program. The website has a link to check to see if a hospital around you carrys the program or you do it online and they ship your stuff right to your door. ;)
I have tried many many without success :cry: this has been the magic bullet for me right now, I have currently lost 40 lbs. since mid October. I love it, no points to count, no starving feeling.
It is restrictive, but how I was eating before I started this was no help to my figure or my health, so for the time being for me it is time to restrict myself. :tape: :dz:

There are a million diets out there, all with success stories, the key is to find the one that "works" for you, that fits your lifestyle.
Good Luck and glad you are here :hug:
psst...watch out for that Kiwi :devil: ....she is dr. jeckle/mr. hyde :lol: she is soo soo nice at times :angel: then bam the :devil: in her comes out...don't tell her I told you that she might :club: :club: me :lol: jk...she is a sweet old lady who gives out fabulous advice....:rofl: jk (Kiwi and I just joke like this, if you stay with us, we will keep you laughing at best) :lol: :yes:
Glad to have you, I offer lots of words of wisdom, :blah: :blah: maybe they might inspire you or maybe you wish I would just shut up :tape: :tape:

for you today my words of wisdom something to think about:
"if you continue to do what you always done, you will continue to get what you have always gotten". Are you ready for a change? Good Luck :crossed: we will be here to support you :hug:

Danni :val3:

Good Morning,

Danni these ladies aren't listening to you. :snooty: They know you are the evil one! :devil: She likes to talk trash! :blah: But I have the cure.:club:
She's just jealous because no matter how hard she works she will never look as good as the KIWI!!:belly: :lol:
Seriously, I can talk like this because I know she really loves me........ and she doesn't know where I live.:kickbutt: :rofl:

Okay I made the soup with meat balls. :dz: Scratch it from your recipe. :write: Yuck!:barf: It needed some flour or tomato paste. Something. Of course I'm not a veg soup person but I thought the meat balls would give it something. :chin: Everyone was just digging out the meat balls and eating them. Uggh!:rolleyes:

Today I will start using my counter. I may even add a walking ticker. I found my self taking faster steps yesterday. The longer route to the fridge!:D

Chat later

Hi everyone,

I did my steps yesterday I did 5172 and that was just in my house:running: ....What's up with that? Am I doing that right?:^: I mean if you are suppose to have 10,000 steps a month it seems to me that is done in 2 days. So the question would be why an't I losing more weight quicker?:D

How is everyone doing? It seems I'm was the only one on yesterday. :(

Hope you are doing well.

Kiwi

Hey Kiwi and Everyone New and Old:hug: . I like the new thread. Glad you left the link cause I have not been on in a week or so :o.

My husband has been out of work a quite abit with back problems:( .


:D Kiwi- I did it oh yea, oh yea. I joined WW last Friday. I am doing the Flex Plan-;) You know that is how I lost the 25 pounds last year. I am so excited about the new start. :D

I have to confess that this week has been tough because of my husband being at home I can't seem to get going as much as I would like. :dizzy:

BTW in walking it is 10,000 step a day not per month.:carrot:

I am going to buy a pedometer but I haven't gotton one yet. I saw one at WW meeting that counts steps and points for activity. I was thinking about buying that one. Did you see it?:smug:

I have to go to the grocery store now cause my husband is back to work and I haven't done much of anything but take care of him the past week.:hug:

SEE YA LATER,
Janette

OMGosh!!!:D Scalewatcher I can't believe it! I'm sooooo glad you were able to join! :carrot: Are you going to go to the meetings? What day do you go?

10,0000 a day?!:^: Well, that makes more sense.....I went back and looked at what Suz said and sure enough she said a day! I most be in denial!!!:lol: I was wondering why it seemed so easy. So do I combine the points or change up each day? I mean for a ticker. No I didn't see a meter that did that. that would be cool to have. How much was it? I only paid $3.48 for this one at Walmart. Its cheap but does the job.

I'm so glad you are back.;) I've missed hearing from you. Janette!!:hug:

Good morning Ladies

Welcome :welcome: Mama of two Morning Kiwi, Danni and all the newbies We will help all we can but we may need your help or support to

I came off midnights yesterday and my DH and I went to Toronto for the day and we walked for about 4 hrs wish I had my pedometer Only got about 1 hr sleep before we got there I was tired from the walking and very little sleep it was also not a good eating day I will get back on track today and do some exercise also
I think I already posted goals for the month I willdo it again
Lose 5 lbs
Exercise 3x/week for at least 40 mins
Start tracking my steps for each day

lets keep moving and losing Ladies :carrot: suz

Hello Everyone: :gossip:

Scale glad you found the link to find us :hug: sorry to hear about DH...is he driving you nuts yet being home? :lol: Mine acts like he has never been home before :shrug: or that I have to be his constant entertainment :rolleyes: :dunno: when he was home sick last year, I took time off to help take care of him :angel: he would ask me every morning, so what are "we" gonna do today....like I had TIME..:nono: I would say "WE" are not going to "anything" "I" am going to do the laundry, clean the bathrooms..etc. he was so bored, not sure how we are gonna handle retriement once we get to that...:shrug: :rolleyes: whew got off track and winded sorry..:o

Suz...I "LOVE" Toronto....what a great way to get away for the day, with all the walking you did it should balance out the "not so good" eating :D

Kiwi, ya know WW makes already cooked meals :yes: and maybe the soup was the cause of the cook :chef: not the recipe? :yes: so maybe spare your poor family...:dunno: and STOP Cooking :rofl: I mean come on sister...do you really think meatballs and tomatoes would have saved it? :shrug: just walk away and over to the frozen food section and let someone who knows what they are doing in the kitchen handle the cooking :devil: :D
:lol:
Have you tried the bean soup from WW? If I remember correctly, you take a big jar of pinto beans, do not drain, a lg can of diced tomatoes a packet of taco seasoning mix and a packet of ranch dressing, and about can of water the can you used for the diced tomatoes. A can of corn with chilies with the water do not drain, mix and heat and I think 1 cup was 1point and it was pretty good, I dont think you can screw this up :dunno: :lol: JK..feel the love feel the love :hug: ...if I get time today I will pull out my old WW stuff :yikes: and check the points on this cuz I am soooo nice :angel:

I have been doing good in regards to exercise and eating the past couple days, work has been nuts :tantrum: I have walked 10,412 steps each day :carrot: give or take a few steps :shrug: I don't have the numbers here but they were real close.

Remember :blah: :blah:...to FIDGET, :hyper: FIDGETERS burn MORE calories than those who don't so be annoying (Kiwi not hard for you :lol:) :devil: and FIDGET and drink your water to flush out those FAT cells, did you know if you DO not drink your water those FAT cell WILL fill up with water and you WILL NOT see a loss on the scale? :yikes: so drink up..:coffee:

Danni :val1:

Good Morning to all:hug:

Kiwi- I go to the meetings on Friday. I don't know yet if I'll continue to go on Fridays after this week. They have meetings a couple times everyday of the week in the mornings at this location; except on Thursday & Friday only have one time in the mornings. I found out that WW is also has evening meetings closer to my home at two different locations, one on Tuesday and one on Thursday at local churches. I am thinking about checking them out. I don't know if they will have the WW items available at those locations like are available at the my original location.

I have a pedometer that I pick-up from Walmart yesterday and I am going to use that for a while; with e-tools I can enter my steps and find out how many :running: activity points I have used for the day.

I have to go to weigh-in :goodscale tomorrow and I hope that I have lost some weight.
:o

My goals are:

• stay with-in my points:write:
• lose 5 lbs in February :goodscale
• walk 10,000 steps a day:running:
• Exercise 30 daily:exercise:

I have to get going so I can exercise.

WHAT"S UP? Danni, Suz, Missindy

Hey has any body heard from MyIvy lately?

Hope you all have a great day.:)

Good Morning everyone!

Danni you are sooo full of laughs.:dz: I must admit cooking is not my specialty. I really feel for my family at times with what I put them through. I'm sure you understand. Its like that feeling your patients get when you
walk into the room. :devil: :lol:
Seriously, I am impressed with your walking.;)
I guess I will improve over time. :^: Yesterday I actually bumped it up by 2000 more steps than the day before.:carrot: I knocked off 50,000 steps from my total since I started stepping on the 6th. But now that I think about it. I should knock off 20,000 more steps off my total since we are missing 2 days this month. :running:

Janette, what is e-tools? Is that the one on WW? I go to my meetings on Sat. mornings. I don't think I would want to weigh in at night. Only because I've eaten all day and I'm my heaviest at night. I eat differently everyday so I'd be afraid to eat on my weigh in days. I prefer mornings.
I drink my coffee, go to the bathroom (ha ha) and then weigh in. :goodscale

Suz, we all need that little break. Mentally and physically.:cheer2: I believe when we have been very consistent with our eating habits as you have been.:hungry: That when you eat off plan it kind of fools your body and sometimes the weight starts coming off again! :goodscale Maybe you will see a scale change again!!:goodluck:

Momma of 2 where are you? :mag: trekkiegirl, surely you have more to say?:hug: Come on girls where are you? We want to hear from you. :D

Hey ladies!

Unfortunately, my story is the same as it has been the last few weeks. I just cannot get started on anything. I have a good couple of days, but then something happens in RL and I just kinda give up. I'm so stinkin pathetic, I know. One of the hard things is that my schedule is so unstructured and super busy now that I eat at weird times (when I eat) and I forget to eat a lot, and then I'm just hungry and so I eat crap.

But, I am trying, and maybe today will be the day I can do it. I'm also going home for that scholarship interview this weekend, so maybe the break from everything will give me a kind of boost.

Danni- I know how you feel. I must have been posting when you sent this post. :thanks:,My DH is doing better and is back to work. He has had this back problem since 1989. He has bad days and not so bad days, on the bad days he can't walk and he is in serious pain. :hug:

Kiwi- yes e-tools is WW. Thanks for reminding me that I would be weighing in at night:eek: what a disaster that would be.:dizzy: I always weigh about 2 or 3 lbs more at night than the morning.

I pedometer has already recorded 4071 steps:running: since I started using it this morning. :carrot:

I have to go drink some more water. :wave:

I'm here. Not feeling particularly :carrot: since I'm in the "ms" part of pms :devil: right now. I'm not gonna even look at a scale for a week! :o Not binging or anything, just feel bloated and tired and waiting for it :devil: :devil: :devil: to be over.
Did get my pedometer, though. Gimme a couple of days and I'll get it crunching numbers. :p

Happy Friday! :yes:

This week dragged by for me.....:tired:

Well yesterday my steps were 11,104 ! :carrot: does anyone else think that is alot? :lol: I told my boss, I think I need a more sedentry type job..:rofl:

Hope everyone is on track with eating, exercise and drinking their water :coffee:

I am a southern girl stuck up here in this *&%$ :tape: cold weather...my goodness how do you northerners takes this? :shrug: I mean you all walk around like it is no big deal :dunno: The temp has not passed the single digets all week infact it has been well below zero :yikes: who knew that was even possible :shrug: Missindy did you ever get your car fixed? I thought about you in this awful cold. ;)
I am sure that Kiwi is basking in the the sunshine:sunny: :sunny: in sunny FL complaining about how warm it is? :blah: :blah: :blah: come on up here and you will burn mucho calories just trying to stay warm!:fr:
and by the way Kiwi....my patients....LOVE ME :hug: they tell me I am Dannilicious :rofl: :rofl: not to be cofused with Fergie cuz she is Fergolicious...:lol:

Gotta run....get some more steps in and frighten a few more patients..:lol: :yikes:..have a good one ladies and remember

"Nothing taste as good as THIN FEELS"..if ya feel like cheating go out and try on clothes....that will give you incentive to keep eating healthy! :D

Danni :wave:

Good Morning all,

Dannilicious?Hummm? :barf: No that doesn't work for me!:rofl:

I saw on the news this morning where lake Ontario was freezing. It was weird seeing ice rushing in on the waves. Freezing over there.

I did great yesterday. I got back to eating breakfast lunch and dinner and it differently helped me with my cravings. Missindy if you could some how manage to eat BLD even though your schedule is crazy I think it would help you from benging so much.

We have friends coming in this weekend. Its going to be a very busy weekend. I'm planning ahead for my meals. Sat. we are going to Rodeo's Steak/Seafood house to celebrate Valentines Day. I'm saving my extra points for that night!! Blackend grilled Shrimp, baked potato w/sour cream and butter, salad. I may bring my own butter (tee hee hee)

I accidentally reset my ticker so I have to add what I had to what my new ticker says so I'll figure it out later. I believe is was around 8 thousand steps, so I think I'm slowing getting there.:^:

Have a great weekend.

am new to this
 

Hi everyone,
Not sure how to start this, I am new here. I have read some of these messages and they seem so postive. :)

My goal for Febuary
Lose min 4pds max 8pds
10,000 steps a day (will take some time haven't made 7000 yet)
My goal for 2007
Lose 40pds
Lose 20pds by my birthday in July
As for the Pedometer they are wonderful it's amazing how many steps you walk in a day and don't even realize it. I work in a office so don't do much moving around but since getting my pedometer am more aware
Have a good morning all must go back to work:(

Thanks Kiwi. I know I need to, but it's not always easy. When I'm lying in bed in the am, all I'm thinking is how to get more sleep, not that I need to eat, so I don't leave myself time. Also, I often just forget to eat. I never understood how anyone could do that until the last few weeks. Maybe I need an alarm? :)

Yesterday was good though. I eat all my meals, but I didn't eat too much. Today is going okay so far. I kinda had lunch food at breakfast, and breakfast at lunch, but other than that it's been okay.

Now I must run to class and then I'm going home! Yea for that!

have an awesome weekend! wish me luck for the scholarship! :D

Hi Wam Tam

so glad you joined us. How is the weather where you are at? Do you have snow?!!

You are so right about the meter. I didn't realize how many steps I took or I should say how few steps I take. Now I find myself taking the long way to get somewhere. Parking my car further away and walking just so I can get in more steps.

Well I've got some missionary friends coming in and I want them to have a clean place to sleep so I better get back to cleaning. ha ha

Hi Kiwi,
Yes it's cold and yes we have snow the most we have seen in a few years. Avg. temp ranges about -15C in the winter months. Makes it really hard to get out and do things.
I am at 3250 steps so far today but shopping tonite so will get a lot more.
I was so excited to see I had a reply back it's nice to feel welcomed....thank you all. I won't be around again until monday so good luck to all!! Am going to try hard this weekend to stay focused.

Great News

Janette:hug:

Clocked in just over 10,400 steps today (almost 5.5 miles). :carrot: Most of it was doing my indoor walking, jogging and lame attempts at disco dancing exercises. :p Having the pedometer on encourages me to move more to make the numbers rise. :D :dancer:

Danni-I know I haven't commented before, but I really like your words of wisdom. It helps to have something to focus on.

This weekend was good for me. It was nice to have a break (even though I'm a little behind this week because of it). I feel like I'm good and really back on track today.

In case you are wondering, my interview went ok. I kinda started talking...a lot. Dreamgirls came up, and I just started babbling. I have no idea if I made any sense or not. My chances on getting it are basically whether they like who I am or not.

ugh...class is calling. have a great Monday!
