Update: One of my August goals was to get below 190... which happened this morning! (It was only 189.6 - but STILL!!!) I have no idea how I did either... yesterday we were at Ozzfest (an all day concert) and didn't have any time to sit down and eat anything remotely healthy... I had two devils food donuts, two hot dogs, a cheeseburger, and tons of alcohol... yet somehow I did it! Yay! :D

Good job getting below 190 jsg. It seems forever for me to be getting out of the 180's. I just can't seem to stick within my point range. Something always comes along that looks good.

Tough at concerts - since you can't really bring much there. We have tickets to 8 concerts in the next 2 weeks. We can bring our own food. These are on the lawn with blankets and a picnic basket artsy type concerts. My parents bring so much good food and wine, it still is tough. Like tonight. I brought grilled chicken, but ended up eating my mom's potato salad anyway - and a few slices of cheese...

But yeah - good job moving out of the 190's. We are about at the same place, except I think you must be a bit taller.

morgan can you bring potato salad made from red potatoes and non fat mayo?

Morgan--

I'm 5'4" - so not that much taller than you are!! And I've been having the SAME problem as you - I have just been having trouble sticking within my points because either I'm not sticking to the portion sizes or I'm eating some form of high-point food I know I shouldn't be having. I think I may have blown my diet this weekend & went over by about 15 points between Saturday and Sunday (which isn't good considering the point value attached to the concert on Friday). I need to weigh in & I'm kinda dreading it because I know I can kiss that 189 goodbye! Oh well... the weight came off once, I can get it off again!

Actually - my mom's potato salad was red potatoes with nonfat mayo, but it is still a cup of potatos and eggs that I didn't need. Thanks though. My problem when I get near carbs is portion control.

aaaah see i dont use eggs in mine and even if i did eat 1 c its core thats why i love core.

Can't seem to stay out of the kids "before bedtime" snacks.

Open mouth - turn off brain.... it is not a good combo. I ended up with 10 extra points that way this evening.

I really want to stay within my extra point range this week - and get back to exercising. There are 3 more Mondays to go in August. With a focused next 3 weeks I could easily drop 6 more lbs and be into the 170's ~ and into a really nice red dress my mom bought me 3 years ago that I have always wanted to wear to school on a Friday (our school color is red).

Go For It Morrgan! Im On Week 5 And Am Having A Tough Time This Week But Desperately Wanna Ride It Out. Im Hoping Forv A Loss Even If Its Not My Targeed 2 Lbs

Hello All,

Weighed in yesterday, lost 2lbs, hooray, can someone tell me how to go about changing that on my little weight scale thing

Good job to all that have lost, I just want to get below 200 before Halloween and then I can look at a Thanksgiving goal and then a Christmas/New Year's goal, if I could loose 25-30lbs by New Year's I think the rest will be a breeze

Hi there.... I'm a Lifetime member who has sadly & badly gone astray... I've made a commitment to get back on program and REALLY do something for ME!

Hub & I have recently become the "empty-nesters". Now that I no longer have to be home (guilt-induced) to make supper, miss the gym, etc... I have worked hard the past few days to rev myself up for this.

I'd love to join your Aug challenge, even tho I am a few days late (I just started this morning).

My goals:

1. gym 3x week
2. track & record EVERYTHING that goes into my mouth
3. drink 64 oz. water daily *yipes.. this is the toughy for me
4. be honest with myself about who I'm really doing this for

Nice to meet everyone...

Hello everyone, I'm finally getting remotivated to start ww again. Been off and on for the past couple months but I mean it this time!

It's been really hard and I could never seem to break the 200 mark.

Soo for the month of August my goals are:
1. Exercise every night atleast 30 minutes
2. Stick to my points by writing EVERYTHING down
3. Never give up

Good Luck all :)

Hey Pink Blossom,

Where did you find that cute little Christmas tracker from, some of you have the cutest ones, quess I did not look far enough into it, but suppose I can change it, I just need to know how to change it when I loose weight-can someone help me out

Hey Mouser, you can go to http://www.tickerfactory.com for some other trackers.

To change the weight on your tracker go to edit your signature and where it says your (start weight/current weight/goal weight) make sure to just change it where you put your current weight. Hope that helps! Take care

update: my wt goal was at least 4 lbs and ive lost almost 5 so far
