I can not even think about Thanksgiving.....There is always WAY to Much food.... Thank god I do not like mashed pot.... I wish I felt that way as much about those sweets and appt.......I will do a one p;late too and only one sweet..It is the whole weekend for me Party after party after party....Arghhhh I need to work my way there......

uggh i love the sweets for turkey day but, i'm lucky my mom is on weight watchers and so are both of my sister in laws so that should help some. i know she will have some sweets there for the guys and for our lil ones but, us girls will probably make the pumpkin pie weight watchers recipe or something if we want a treat. the low point weight watchers fudge is wonderful imight make that and have that there this year have to wait and see how i'm doing some things i have to be so careful of for now till i get back into the swing of things. lets see my workout for last night was tearing my bedroom apart and moving furniture while the boys slept fun fun.. i havent had a chance today to do anything got up got both boys a bath got a shower for myself went for my 6 week post partum appt. then stopped by the place i used to work so the girls could see how the boys are doing and then back home to fix lunch and pack hubbies dinner for work and feed the kids the baby fell asleep then its been chasing the 2 year old that should be worht some activity points right :)))

hope everyone is having a great day today.

WE CAN DO THIS GIRLS> :))))

STAY ON PLAN AND MOVE MOVE MOVE AND DRINK THAT WATER :)))))

i'm so glad to be back with all of you

Yep I would say that is a workout. 2 boys yahhh I have 2 myself. I love it and would not change it.They are soooo much fun. I did not work out today. Had a pamer day. Got my hair done , shopped, had a nice good lunch and came home and maybe blew it I hope not. I will not work out tom but maybe do something at home. The weather is awful here rain and cold.. Same tom so I will have to go to the Gym......I am still drinking the water I will probably be up all night going to the lue.I should start early. oH well lesson learned...good luck everyone..

yup one of the many joins of drinking the water is all the trips to the bathroom ;0 but its so worth it and makes such a difference .. yup little boys are absolutely wonderful wouldnt change it for the world i'm so wrapped around those lil fingers.sounds like a good day to me doesnt get your hair done make you feel so good . have a great workout tomorrow at the gym :)

i'll have to look and see if i can find it but, ww has a good crustless pumpkin pie recipe :) yeah the late night running to the bathroom is tough but, for now with a brand new baby in the house its not such a bother since hes not sleeping through the night yet.

how did we do today girls? i stayed on plan all day still havent gotten in all my water shame on me but, i'm close.

right now i'm making some ww pizza pouches they are great big hit with my darling hubby to its nice to have a recipe that he likes and i do to makes dinner time alot easier.

I'm in for 12 Its gonna be hard but I will give it my all and try to behave at Thanksgiving dinner!!!

Morning -

Huntersmommy, I've been having issues with the water this week too. I can feel it when I don't have it all in and need to be more conscious of it. I think I'll go drag out those large travel water bottles again and get those filled and in the fridge. That always makes getting the water in easier.

So how many ways can you fix chicken and fish? That's what I have in the freezer for this week. DD bought us a George Foreman grill last week for our anniversary and I'm really liking it. I believe it will make quick dinners easier.

Also Huntersmommy - have you tried the crustless pumpkin pie? I have the recipe but haven't tried it yet. May have to try that out before T-day to see how it tastes.

I made the chocolate/pumpkin cake last night. I'm going to get that into servings into the freezer and then I'm going to make the WW Apple pie (4 pts) so I can have that this week too. Some weeks I just want sweet stuff and both of these should help me fill that need and keep totally on program.

Let us know how the rest of you are coping and what some of your secrets are!

rosegarden yup pumpkin pie is good :)) yeah i have my sweet weeks sometimes to its better to induldge those sweet tooths here and there than have the big binge . was so proud of myself last night dh got home from work early and i made pizza for him but, it wasnt ww friendly i wanted some bad but, i made it through the night without going to the fridge and stuffing my face with it so proud of myself. hmmm the small victories are making me feel good for now.

gotta go start my water for the day hopefully after i get back from the base grocery store i can get my workout in for the day starting slow its amazing how out of shape 9 months of not being allowed to exercise can do to a body . leslie sansone is kicking my tail ..

what kind of exercise are you girls doing to help with your weightloss

lets post about staying on plan and drinking are water and our workouts :))

we can do this girls..

lets get up have a great on plan day .. my first official weigh in since being op is monday well home weight in i havent gone back to my meetings yet i'm changing my signature as my weight has changed this week i know alot of its just water at this point but, every bit is one bit less of me :)))))

oh yeah dont know bout y'all but, i weigh myself daily i know you shouldnt do that but, for those if have the cant stop myself bug, at the top of the page where there is the meet and greet and description of ww in a nutshell there is a sticky called tools i got a great printable weight tracker from there its dated and you just right your weight in each day just make sure you weigh at the same time every day :)))


What is your biggest dieting obstacle?
mine would be my hubby everytime i try to lose weight he brings home something he knows i love like candy or pizza or ice cream.. last time I lost 124 pounds despite his attempts to keep me chunky to keep others from looking. I went from a size 26/28 to a size 12 that is the smallest i ahd been in 6 years

what is your biggest motivation?
my family , my hubby my kids i want to be the healthiest i can be want to be able to keep up with my boys and watch them grow up.

Huntersmommy - Paige posted the following in the Supporting Each Other Thread as a Pizza recipe. I made it and it was fab!!!! It really satisfied my pizza craving!

You could make 3/4 of the pizza loaded with the stuff for DH and leave 2 pcs as your cheese part (1/4 pizza) It also traveled well for my lunch the following day. I added mushrooms and broccoli to my part too for freebies

thanks for the recipe going to have to try that

OK, my Trick or Treat challenge final weigh in was this morning, so I'm officially moving on to the Thanksgiving challenge! I'm hoping (not hoping, working hard towards!) an 8 pound loss by Thanksgiving. I believe I have just about 4 weeks to do it, so I think it's possible!

I have also set my Thanksgiving Goal as 8 pound. I am doing the Biggest Loser Challenge and it is set to be 260. It finishes about a week after Thanksgiving, so I figure 2 pounds a week should be obtainable.

great goals everyone :)))

well my first week back on weight watchers postpartum i lost 6lbs course i know most of that is water but, yeah thats 6lbs less of me :))

so girls what are we going to do to reach our goals today

i've given my 2 year old a bath getting ready to have my oatmeal and give my other lil guy a bath then hopefully have time to do one of my workout videos and get a bath myself..

drink drink drink that water :))))

What am I doing to reach my goal? Walk Walk Walk and Walk some more. I have fibromyalgia and can't do much more than walk. I hadn't felt well over the weekend. Fri, Sat, Sun and Mon I have weight exactly the same--270.2. I have not gone over points at all so it has to be the fact that I haven't walked any. I only walk 5 minutes at a time and try to walk 4 times a day. So back on the treadmill I go. I drink nothing but water. Wishing everyone well today.
