Hey, all! I haven't dropped by in a while. Just firmed up my ultimate weight goal: 170 ... that way I can stop paying for WW that much sooner. My personal goal is 160, though.

If I'm counting down to 170, I only have 35 more to go!

Ah, a new week has started for me today. I lost a point in my total this week. So, my goal is to learn to adjust my eating and stay at 26 points.

Yesterday was my third day. I did a lot of exercise. 50 minutes on the Wii Fit (cardio), then 20 minute walk with dog, then more Wii Fit, but only balance stuff that I don't count.

I had my 6 waters and ate well, but am still having trouble counting points and adding it all up.

Yesterday was my second day and I did 50 minutes of exercise, drank 6+ waters, but still didn't count points. I'm doing well eating though and have already lost 3 pounds since Saturday so am not complaining.

My goal is to fit nicely into my summer clothes from last season. They all are very tight...Not a very good feeling!

I had a pretty good week... weighed in this morning and was down 2.5lbs! This site has really helped my motivation. I tend to do better when I have short-term goals that I can focus on. When I think about the fact that this journey will probably take me a year to reach... It can get overwhelming. I was really excited about losing the 2.5lbs this week. My goal was to weigh 180lb by today... I ended up weighing in at 182.5... not exactly my goal, but I'm still very happy with it!
I've been working (I'm a realtor) a bit more lately, so on days that I have appt's I've been trying to plan my food out so I'm not hitting drive-thrus (bad habit from the past). So far, so good... I'll check in again mid-week.

Stacie... I'm doing WW on my own. I picked up my materials on ebay... but I think you can find them on craigslist sometimes too. I had done it in the past, but couldn't find my old materials... so I bought a points calculator, journal and food companion guide. My package also had the eating out guide... but to be honest, I don't really use it. If you don't want to spend a lot, you really just need the points slider and food companion...You can create your own journal. My sister just started doing WW too... she didn't have a lot of money to invest in it and those are the two pieces she's using to get started. Hope that helps.

Hope everyone's having a great week!

I am starting my plan, AGAIN, tomorrow! I have exactly six weeks until I go to the beach on vacation! I NEED HELP! I also will be attending my sister in law's funeral services tomorrow evening and Tuesday. It has been a hard two weeks, and I have gained five pounds back of the fifteen I had lost! If I do not start over again, then I am going to gain it ALL back and then some! I am thinking of joining weight watchers because calorie counting alone is HARD! Any help? I really don't have a lot of extra money right now (have had a TON of extra expenses this month) and so want to do the program if I can without having to pay more fees for NOW. Any ideas? I was on it a couple of years ago, so may have the books somewhere. Look forward to hearing from some folks who are also doing the program or something similar.
Thanks!
Stacie

I so ef'd up this challenge. I just fell right off one day and never got back on. I'm now armed with the Wii fit and some better determination and motivation (saw myself on TV at a local chain store ... blech).
I will be checking in daily starting tomorrow, but I am going to keep it simple with three commitments.

-Wii Fit workouts 6 days a week (Sunday off)
-6 waters daily (minimum)
-30 points

Yesterday I walked for 30 min. and at our monthly office birthday party I ate fruit plus one small cookie. I had talapia and vegetables for dinner last night.

Today I will exercise for one hour at our gym on campus where I work and eat a healthy lunch. Tonight I plan to have turkey veg. soup.

This morning the scale was down 1.2 lbs. My plan is to lose 1.5 lbs. next week. I would like to get back to 144 lbs. by the end of June. I am 5'9" and medium framed.
I read this site daily and wish everyone good luck.
