Weight Watchers

[catlover4ever]

I'll be back on track tomorrow. This year I managed to drop just over 50 lbs and I completed the Las Vegas Half Marathon on December 2!!! For 2008 I want to drop another 50 - 60 and then I will reach my goal.

I've maintained my 40 lb. weight loss since August, but I admit I gained a few this week, but I think the trade-off was worth it. I would feel so deprived if I didn't get to have some traditional favorites (especially since I'm doing all the baking), and my son's been here visiting, so we've gone out quite a bit. At least I know HOW to go about losing it again...but I'm not counting points again till my kid leaves (tomorrow)!

Ok, ladies, you've got me wanting to give it a real try this time. I've done the online in the past but quit after about 2 weeks. Not having anyone in "real life" to be accountable to always makes it to easy to just stop everything. I need to look into a meeting place and times here in town and then get really serious!

I need to loose at least 60 pounds if not more. Right now I'd take 20!

You go girl, believe me when you make the committment and do it, it is well worth all the effort, i wish you all the best of luck with your weight loss journey, i am still on mine, but so far i am back on track and you know what i am enjoying it, the healthy regime agrees with me, and makes me feel so much better about myself, i hate when i am out of control and eating bad, makes me feel lethargic and horrible , so good luck to everyone.

I am at my goal weight! It took until March 2008 rather than the end of last year, but it is here.

The chart now tells me I am "normal" body weight, but I do not see that in the mirror - maybe never will. But, I do feel healthier and can get around the block really quickly and not at all tired. I *must* get some sort of exercise going when the weather breaks. I am also wearing many of my old clothes and need to get a few things that really fit

Anyway, I wanted to share this victory here - and hope to hear from others who are working at it.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

A wonderful victory! Do treat yourself to some new things, you deserve it! It will help you realize how far you've come, & you will look thinner to yourself in your new sizes.

Even if you don't think you look different, believe me, you do to other people! I worked in women's plus size clothes & went next door to our sister store (regular sizes!) last year after losing 40 lbs. & the girls I'd worked next door to for 3 years didn't recognize me right away -- what a hoot!

I would just like to say Way to Go Mom!!!!!!!
You look fabulous! I can't believe that you came down here wearing my old jeans that haven't fit me since before Austin You have a teeny little waist and a narrow bottom that I would give my right arm for.
Congratulations Mom!!

What a fabulous accomplishment! You should be so very proud of yourself! Did you do it with Weight Watchers?

Congratulations and here's to many healthy years!

Well Done, congratulations, you should be patting yourself on the back and treating yourself to something special (not food) of course, but maybe a day at the spa or some new clothes etc,how about posting some before and after photos, they always inspire me, i am still battling on, i gained 2kgs over the xmas period and i still have not lost it, i need to loose that first then get on with loosing the rest, so i am in awe of you, and you have made me decide to get back on the wagon again, and get stuck in,thanks for that, and again awesome.

WOW Debbie!!! What a major achievement!! How many pounds did you get rid of in total??

I am on WW too now, since January. I have to loose at least 20 kg, doctors orders! I weigh far to much for my back . At first I kept going down and back up. But now it starts working: I have lost 4 kg in total now!
Still lots of work here

[kittycats_delight]

Good Job Debbie. I have just about 10 days ago started a program here with a dietologist. I have to lose about 30 kgs in her opinion but for me I would like to lose About what you had to loss. I am doing pretty well so far and have lost 5 kg or 11 lbs. Not bad for 10 days. I was told the first 10kg maybe even 15 kg will fall away quick then things will get much slower.

How long in total did it take you to lose yours? My dietologist said it could take upto 2 years to take it all off. How are you doing now with maintaining? Has it been difficult?

Great job...you go girl!!!!
