Wow, signing up for the website made me lose 3 pounds, lol!
I signed up last night, had to weigh myself. Then my normal weigh-in day is Monday... so I just weighed myself, 3 pounds lighter! Lol, it's amazing how different your weight can be depending on the time of day!

Congratulations to everyone who is losing!!
I on the other have fallen off the wagon...again.
I tried to get back one, but it's not working. I'm just not motivated to do anything lately.

I can definately see how frustrating WW can be. Since i'm under 150, I only get 20 points a day (plus whatever flex points and activity points or whatever they call them). That's not much at all! 8 ounces of OJ is 2 points, which really aggrevated me. I have a glass of OJ every day, for vitamin C reasons.
I gotta find some better things to eat for breakfast that are quick.... I usually have cereal or poptarts b/c they're quick and easy.... Poptarts are like 4 points each! Those Pillsburgh Toaster Streudels are 5! ARGH!

Try whole english muffins. I can't remember the brand name but they are only 2 points. Costco also sells fat free breakfast fruit bars that are 2 points (I think).

sigh... there is nothing more depressing than working out for 4 months and trying on a bathing suit for the first time only to discover you look like you did 4 months ago...
I've fallen off the wagon for sure. i have Runner's Knee. So I have to stay away from high impact exercise and leg extentions at the gym. Guess I will be going to yoga more often...
But since I have been babying my knee, I stop working out. And then I eat more. ARGH!

I have found that if I am sign up to do something. Like this coming weekend (Mothers Day) I am particpating in a Y-ME Breast Cancer Run/ Walk. I forced myself to train and get in shape for it and I have lost alot of weight since I decided to do it.
I am sorry if I may seem so do this or do that. But, I wish you all best of luck. I have hit the Lifetime Membership as of today. I am so happy. Please anyone who is thinking of quitting, please pm me and I will help as much as possible.

If anyone does Yahoo Groups, there's a group called "weight_watchers_at_home". Group doesn't seem to be that active, but in the files section there is a document with 100 recipes wth the points calculated. I've tried several of them (Baked Red Snapper, Sunshine Salad, and Creamed Corn Pancakes) and they're all pretty good. We're having the White Chicken Chili tomorrow night!

some stuff will also be taken off the menu, kids, so watch out. if you liked the stir fry or aztec salad, get it quick and enjoy! it'll be gone soon. but there's a chicken skillet for WW coming, and some new salads, a 3 layer choc cake and a lemon berry cheesecake....there's this rice that's WW and it is the BOMB! most of the stuff being replaced by WW is stuff that is rarely if ever ordered (turkey and spin dip sandwich, bbq brisket, etc), but my mom is pissed about the stir fry!!!!!  lol

weight loss jealousy
Hi everyonel. I don’t post here too often but I noticed there was a WW thread on GC and I wanted to ask you guys something.
I have been on WW since November of 2003 and I have lost 25 lbs. I have gone from a size 11 in juniors to a size 3. Now all of this is great and I am so happy about it, but today one of my good friends told me about a comment someone made about me. We went to high school with this guy and she works with him now. When she told him I was a size 3 now, he goes "No way! _________ isn't even that size!" And apparently it bothered him that I was that small. I just don't understand that kind of comment coming from a guy. And I asked her why he would even be upset and she said that it's cuz his girl is not even that small so it bothers him that I would be.
I don’t even know this guy that well! We haven't really spoken since high school; I am married and settled in my life now too. I just don't get it.
Do you guys experience stuff like this? I just don't know how to react or feel and I don't want his negative energy affecting my mood or my weight loss. Any insight would really help. Thanks for listening guys.

Are you happy with your weight loss? Are you happy with your man? Your life?
If you are happy (or content...cause let's face it, bot everyone is happy all the time) then who cares about this guy?!
You haven't seen him since highschool, his opinion doesn't matter. And it never should have and it never will!
He's upset because you're smaller then his girlfriend. Well obviously that shows he bases his relationships solely on the physical. he's an insecure little man and isn't worth your time.
be happy with your self and what you have achieved!
Congratulations on your weight loss!

Thanks Lady Pi Phi for the congrats.
Yes I am very happy with everything right now. I am not so much worried about his opinion as I am shocked that someone would be jealous like that, you know? I have sensed it from other women before, but coming from a man? I guess he is insecure that his girl is not as thin and that does truly show a lot about his character.
But thanks for the insight. I guess haters will always wanna hate. I am just gonna be the new skinnier me  .
