  • lynard- Do you follow the Weight watchers core program?? It just looked like it from your menu ....I usually do WW myself but I have to low carb when I overdo a few days before weigh in
  • Christie,

    No, I just keep track of calories on FitDay - try to stay below 1700-1800 when I am exericsing daily. I did WW sbout 4 years ago, and it worked, but now I rely on my TOPs weekly weigh-ins.

    Can anyone join in on your contest of losing?I use to go to TOPS 2 yrs ago n lose alot but had to quit as my car gave out n meeting was 20 miles away.
    I am losing on my own at home but I am doing the weight watchers points.
    I was 270 10/24/06 and now I am down to 260.It would be nice to have someone to report in to.I can't afford ww meetings.I think I weigh more than anyone on here.So let me know if I can join.
    Thank You
  • Of Course - please join us!
    Congratulations on your 10 pound loss so far! Please feel free to post anytime. Right now we're having a Thanksgiving Challenge that will last until the week of Thanksgiving...but we'll have other incentives too. We all need help over the holidays, right?
