china

ok today was alittle rough for me i did have a glaze donut and a coffee as i was out running around. other than that i did ok. it was all still with in my ww points just not a good choice. will do better 2morow. how did everyone else do.

ok i think i might get the 3month pass next time. and i have had my band for a year and 4months now and have lost 114lbs but have gained alil back so now im working on trying to get back on track. and sure we can post i think support is very important. so i eat all my points but, 9 + the 7 i got for working out so that is 16 points all together.

b-turkey/cheese/scallions omlette made w/1egg,1egg white. 1c coffee,1 tsp Creamer, 2tps sugar

s-6oz greek yogurt w/1tsp Peanut Butter

l-16oz cappiccino, glaze donut:frown::thumbup:

d- cup of Soup w/ pj cheese stix

_________

35points and 28points if you include my workout.

Yes you can go to the meetings with the three month pass but you have to print it and show them. I did that awhile back. I find if I don't eat all my point I don't lose as good. But the extra and the activity points I do get by without using those. How long have you had the band? How much weight have you lost? I eat alot of fat free and light stuff cause I can have more food. I spred my points out so It seems like I'm eating all day but I'm not and it has sped my metabolism up. I eat breakfast at 7 snack 9 lunch at 11 snack at 1 supper at 430-500 snack at 7:30. I Know this sounds crazy but it works for me. I eat the most points at breakfast and lunch. If you have any pointers feel free to clue me in.I'm weighing in Monday and you next Tuesday? We can post it each week? Or if we need more support we can get on as needed. Thanks so much for being my weight watcher buddy LOL!

thanks for posting thought i was gonna have to go it alone. well i just started the ww thing. back when i went to ww there wasnt any points thats for sure i went as a child. so the points fore new to me but, i get 42 points a day i guess. i dont think i will be useing them all though. but, im sure gonna give it a try thats for sure as im paying for it. does anyone know if you get the 3month pass can you still attend the meetings. i plan on attending 2 or 3 meetings a wk. think i will start weightin on tuesdays. so as for 2day i think it went ok. so far.

.

does WW only have 2 options when attending classes in person --- the monthly pass & the weekly pay ?

didn't they used to have a pre-pay plan ? i don't like the monthly pass because the last time i did that and cancelled, they had some crazy cancellation loophole where they were able to charge me for additional month.

i am thinking seriously about actually JOINING because i've been playing around with the same pounds since november (up a few, down a few, up a few, down a few....)

:ohmy:

I have been doing weight watchers at home for 4 weeks. I have the books from joining a while back so i'm not actually joining but doing the points on my own. I woulkd like to weigh in on mondays and have support from you guys if thats ok. I have been doing pretty good but if I actually had to post my weight each week I think I would do better. Next Monday I will weigh in and start. So how are you guys doing with weght watchers. Are you losing? How many points are you allowed? Today I had Fried bolonga for breakfast with egg and a peper jack cheese string. lunch I had light baebecu pringles if any of you like chipe these are great and only have 70 calories per 14. I had I Peice dieced chicken green pepper and onion cooked in Water. A pepper Jack cheese stick. For supper I'm having corn on the cob with chicken onions and peppers. About 7 I have snack wich is bag light popcorn. My points are 30. I do not use alloawence points or exercise ponts. I exercise at the gym for an hour at 500 in the morning. I take the dog for a two mile walk at the park after i drop the kids off at school After I eat luch I use treadmill for 30 minutes and before bed I use treadmill for 30 minutes. I got banded Oct 23 2009.

count me in also im starting over. i to have had alot of issues with my band lose then gain and so on now i have had all my cc's taken out and still have issues eating just not as much so as a result i turn to slidder food. working on that though. i did join ww yesterday and am looking for support as that is the key to. so i would be happy to join and offer support. and yes you guys are doing great compared to what u could have done without the band but, we still want to do better i so know how you feel.

sent you a message

I have a bunch of size 30-32 willing to give away. Anyone in the NY/Northern NJ area interested?

thank you anneGG. also just this evening i joined weight watchers gonna see how that helps me trying to get as much support as i can. plus i know they will be able to better teach me the nutrical part that i may be lacking. so wish me luck and i hope more ppl start posting.

Great work, china! You can do it, and it is so worthwhile!

ok i did it i went in and joined weigh watchers today seemed like a good group was there i went to the one for ppl who have alot to loose. team leader was helpful not like the first time i went in awhile back. even met a few ppl there that either had gastic bypass or was thinkin about it or the band. so i will see how this point thing works still gotta set up my on-line e-tool. think i will try and go to 3 meeting a wk or at least 2 until i get the hang of it. as im new to this points thing. tell me does everyone else eat all the points they say you are suppose to.

so now im reading over all the material and i sure will be posting here as im paying for it so i sure plan on use n it.

so how is everyone else doing on ww?

hello im china,

i 2 have been m.i.a for a spell. but, now im back. maybe we can all support and motivate one another. i got 2 fills and 4unfills and as a result of having all cc's taken out gained 10lbs or so. still havent gotten a fill for some reason every time i do it has to come out and then some reguardless of the amount put in. so im just getting back into the swing of things. wow 100lbs is great and you havent gained any. great job

ok today i woke up and felt blessed. i cleaned the house and took a walk at the part and now im getting ready to go 2 the y and go swim. and my eating was good so far.

b-coffee,2sugars,1cream, granola bar w/fiber(90cals)

s-1 pj cheese stix(100cals)

i do however have to start adding in more Water. working on that. so how is everyone 1 else doing.

Hi everyone...this year stinks with snow...I am having my 5th snow day tomorrow already...i am going through so much personally...this is such a struggle...i did get a fill last week so have good restriction...just need to get this weight off..I hope everyone is well....i need to get back to posting daily..miss you all...Laurel

me to im just getting back on track little by little. but, im getting there. i feel like im ready now. i dont care if i lose slow as long as it comes off. i wish everyone luck. how is everyone doing.

Hi guys - been a while for me... I'm stalling, but starting to see a tiny bit of progress again. It's hard to remember that even though I'm eating less, my body requires less than it used to. I'm about 1/2 way towards my big ambitious goal, but the reality is I'm feeling much healthier.

Shelli

me to girl its so much going on im just in the wind but, im taking steps slowly to get back on track.

Hi China, I really need to get back in posting along with back to eating and excercising to start losing again. Just going through some promblems at home so hard to work hard. I will get through them, and succeed at this weight loss once and for all. my love to all and will try to get back to posting on a regular basis... Laurel
