Weight Loss Forum / WeightWatchers / May 2005INTL wk 7 / GEC wk 8 - Laura
INTL week 7: up 0.8 to 177.0 (Goal = 170) GEC week 8: 5 curves sessions Time to get back on track! I think I am having problems getting back on track since the 2 weeks of different eating at mom's. I'm not eating poorly or in excess but I can't seem to get that scale moving downward again so I'm doing something wrong. I am going to be more careful about my portions this week as well as journal religiously so that I can share it with my leader next Saturday. Our meeting today concentrated on our eating "comfort zone" so I am going to practice this also. Maybe this will help keep my portions under control. I know that my body is out of whack hormonally as TOM still has not appeared since early November. Could be meanie-pause or something else. I am pushing 50 so anything is possible. My leader said this could be contributing too. Well it is snowing right now. Lots of snow expected. Could be up to 18" of snow by morning. So anyone in the direct path of this latest storm-keep warm and be safe. Have a wonderful week.  Signature~Laura~ 245.6/177/145 WW 178.6/177/170 INTL OP since 4/21/03 Sorry to hear about your gain this week. Time to get down to business and do as you say....journal, most importantly - then you'll see what it is you've been doing that has made this week unsuccessful. I've been having a similar problem for the last year or so, but then I haven't been journalling as I should have. The last 3 weeks I have been making sure that I journal EVERYTHING and it has given me a new look at what I've been doing that I shouldn't have. I know that this will probably get a response from "you know who", but journalling religiously and drinking my quota of WATER, have led to me being down 2 lbs since WI on Monday. I know that could change between now and my next WI on Monday, but it's been the same for the last few days and hasn't fluctuated, so unless I blow it over the weekend I can probably safely say I'm at 195.

Glad to hear about your 2 pound <expected> loss. Here's hoping that it stays down or goes down further. I have been journaling from day one. There are things that I probably have *forgotten* to include on the list. One of the things from this mornings meeting is to only eat when hungry. That's my goal for the week. It certainly will eliminate my evening snack since we tend to eat a hearty dinner most evenings. She suggested herbal tea or a SF hard candy if my cravings hit around 9pm. I'm typically having a core snack but if I am not hungry then I should not have it in the first place. This is going to be the hard part-its truely a bad habit that I need to break. > Sorry to hear about your gain this week.

Be nice if it went down further, but I don't expect it to this week. > I have been journaling from day one. There are things that I probably have > *forgotten* to include on the list.

I found myself conveniently *forgetting* to journal some things as well, then one thing led to another and before I knew it I wasn't journalling at all. The result...I gained back 28 of the 37 lbs. I lost in 2003. I was doing so well and it just took a minimum of time before I was completely off the program and right back where I was before! I usually have an evening snack, although last night I had just enough points left after dinner to have a slice of blueberry pie for dessert - I even took off the top crust and the thick piece at the side and just ate the filling and the bottom crust. Another NSV for me! Then I had no snack in the evening. Actually I went and climbed into bed with my son, read him a book and we both promptly fell asleep! Helps avoid the evening snacks ;-) >> Sorry to hear about your gain this week.

You on the east coast? We got 10+ inches here in south NJ. Though I have been sick for over a week with bronchitis, with hubby at work I shoveled about 30-40 minutes to clear off what he hadn't last night. So I got a day of exercise in this week, not my goal but considering how I have felt, I feel ok with one day.

I am leaving the snow shoveling to DH. Everytime I try and help him I get yelled at. Seems I don't know what I am doing. <g> > You on the east coast? We got 10+ inches here in south NJ.

So I wait and DH takes me where I need to go. He took me shopping again this morning before napping for night work tonight. Pork Loin, shrimp and whole chickens were all on sale and it is the only store I can find Ground Boca at. Seems I went over the food budget again, sigh, but I got enough meat for over a month now in the freezer. Then we hit the produce store and spent more. He said, hummm, you spend less when you shop alone. I said I know, I only buy what is on the list, you like to add in other things. But since they are healthy things and we do usually need them, I don't complain at all. He helps with the cooking also.

I know that while I have slowed down in the losing department my measurements have gone down faster. This has helped me not get upset at the last 2 week's WIs. 5 pounds in 2 months is very slow for me but 4.25 inches in that time is a record for me. I think my eating got out of hand because I could not get totally OP after the xmas break. I'm doing better this week. I'm watching what and WHEN I eat. I think this last part might make a big difference. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. > and you have been losing quite good for the last bit, your body may just be > taking a break, Lee [quoted text clipped - 26 lines] > > 178.6/177/170 INTL > > OP since 4/21/03 great inches lost, Lee, impressed > That is possible too.
