I've been here before. I've decided to get back on the saddle and try again. I had lost 29 lbs the last time I was on the WW plan. I have gained lets say most of it back. I feel like I am just in a downward spiral here. I will weigh myself tonight I have to prepare myself for the depression that will bring. So I guess I'm being a downer. I need to get a better handle on life you know? A more positive outlook.

Looking forward to the support here )

Michele

Hey Michelle You can do it - WOW 29 pounds is AMAZING !!!
I only manage to get to 9 and then go back to my old ways.
I am starting over again tooo !!!!

Be Positive and Positive things will happen.

Shoot I need to follow my own advice.

We can be buddys if ya like.

i have never done the WW at home -
But I am this time - because I cant afford to go to the meetings.

When is your first day on the program gonna be -
Today or tomorrow ???

Let me know.

Dont worry about that scale - it is only a temporary thing.
And being heavier then we like - or feel good about doesnt make us bad people. So there should be no shame there ,,,,,, I have had to tell myself this many times over and over - so Now we just start taking some action and do what makes us feel good inside and out.

Let me know

Disregard my weight counter below - it is FALSE that is from when I was Doing good - which I am not - and have gained all of that Plus some back

I started today actually. As much as I would like to start tomorrow. I packed my lunch for work today. WW dinner and crackers. Lots of water. I realized I threw in a block of cheese. I think the thing is like 9 points though. It's depressing. I want to eat the stupid thing. Its just sitting there staring at me. URG.

I would love to buddy up.... I need positive reinforcement here. Well I guess I need more then that.

Oh and dont feel bad i cant afford the meetings either. This is the best I can do right now.

Dedication thats what we need!

Could you use another buddy?! I need the support also and would love to buddy up with you both. I just started AGAIN today also. My family laughs at how many diets I go on! I have trouble sticking to them. This may help me out.

Okay Lets all do it together !!!! I really need some support too !!!
Except I must admitt I was supposed to start today - But didnt.
I am starting tomorrow !!!!!!!

So what are your guys meals like - what do you pack for lunch ?

well this morning- I had a doughnut( THAT wasn't a great start!)

I packed water I've had 2-20oz bottles today so far. I get off work in 20 min I hope to get the third down before I leave.

I had WW Fettichini for lunch with some saltines

And saltines for snack.

I had my husband take that cheese home when he came to visit a few min ago. It was really tempting me!

Dinner we are doing a broasted chicken, mashed potatoes and cauliflower.

So far so good accept for that Doughnut!

I wont even put what I have had totally pathetic !!! ERRRRRRR

But I am NOW eager to start tomorrow ?

I did pretty good today. Had oatmeal for breakfast, Lien Cuisine for lunch, fruit for a snack and dinner I had a grilled chicken breast, broc., and cabbage.

2 fat free fudge pops for evening snack...that wasn't too bad, right?!

Hello ya'll

Are you going to have a set weigh in day?
I am very excited and need all the support I can get!!
I am in the same boat about the whole $$meeting$$ thing!

Amy

Well today didn't go so bad. We had the broasted chicken, mashed potatoes and cauliflower. It was good. I snacked on a 1/2 cup of chex mix and watermelon tonight. I used all of my points today. And 80 ozs of water. I guess it was a good day.

I weighed myself tonight and I was 3 lbs less the I thought I was to start.

My husband, little guy and I went for a 1/2 mile walk too. It's a start

Michele

Oh the saltines are 5 crackers for 1 point

I am new to WW .Can I join you all? It would be nice to have some WW buddies.We could all have a weigh in day. maybe we could get ideas off of each other as to what to eat

AMC & Angelica - Hi there !!!! I think it's great if you all join us !!!! And YES I think we should all pick a weigh in date !!! Christine & Luke what do you guys think !!!!

This morning I felt all EXCITED and determined to do good today because I knew I had others to do this with and to check in with !!! I think We'll all do good this way.

Especially if we keep in mind it's okay to not be PERFECT - and we just keep plugging away and NOT TO GIVE UP if we slip a little - which we will from time to time - because we are human - Just got to remember this is a process ....

So far today - I have had 2 cups of coffee / 2 pts -

I plan on having Oatmeal for breakfast

And I made a salad for lunch - with just a few chopped carrots , some green onion and kidney beans - - 1 pt and I plan on Using Salsa as my dressing so that is 0 pts

And I brought a cucumber for a snack - If i Get really hungry and feel i need something else - I have a can of green beans here and also a bag of 1 point Popcorn !!!!!

So how is everyone doing this morning !!!!!
