I have been at work thank God !!! i work for six flags and so I have been out of work for 3 months and it feels great to be back ! we open in April but we take alot of classes and clean up ... my eatting is good cause i am not home to just eat i have to wait for a break or when we are done i try to stay in my points 31 but before work I was going wayy over... my protien shake is way to many points ! 11.... I dont mind slim fast but thats only 10 grams of protein and 5 points... and I can tell i am hungrey faster my protein shake keeps me full for 5-6 hrs... I went out and bought the zumba for the wii for the days i cant make it to the gym..

I have to say I LOVE ww with the band !!! 3 weeks ago I met with my doc to talk about getting the band removed and getting the sleeve done. he told me to meet with the nut and he would do the paper work for my insurance. i made the appt and cried about how i failed at this band that my family didnt want me to get... then i got a join free ww flyer in the mail and i found this thread..so i went . i didnt want to spend 40 a month plus my 54 a month gym fee but i had a gut feeling. i started the e tools on my phone and the bar scaner <3 that ! i started on wed today my pants are lose i got on the wii and i am down 4 lbs already !!! i know this was ment to be !!! thank you for this thread and everyone who posted!! it was everything i needed to know i can work this band and i am going to keep it

i did do the ww tracker and it says 31.... its not a big diffrence.i was so ready to go today and my hubby took me out to lunch I did well but I had my day planed out before hand so off to the gym to zumba.......

I went last night and joined WW !! i am sooo pumped up. first my home scale is off by 2 lbs so i was less then i thought then I went to the supermarket and stocked up. today i am making the soup. it is kind of hard not having the slider so i downloaded the scaner on my phone so i can scan barcodes.... I called the nut yesterday and she told me to do 29 points so here goes my first day !!!
