Well I posted last week, it was my first week on WW Flex program, and I lost
2.6lbs.  This week I'm dying with the flu, not feeling the best of course,
and not up for a whole lot of exercising, then again not doing a whole lot
of eating either.  I go to my meeting tomorrow (weather permitting) and find
out the let down most likely... hope I didn't gain anything :-(  doubt I
lost much though... guess you can't be a loser all the time, lol.

Good luck tomorrow. Sometimes the scale will surprise you.

Me? I have no idea what to expect tomorrow. Scale has basically said the
same for the past month.

Maybe longer walks and less points would make the scale go down.

How 'bout swimming?  She could take a long walk on a short pier.

LOL!!!   :-D  The truth hurt?
If she didn't lose anything in a month she's eating too many calories a day.
Deal with it.

It's difficult to figure out which arguement you are going to come up
with - you seem to have so many.

I had expected you to say she had a slow metabolism, where someone
doesn't lose even though they eat on plan all week.
Or maybe she was on a plateau, you know where someone is on atkins for
ages and reaches a plateau and can't lose any more.
Or maybe you would suggest she's been eating too many carbs, 'cos they
immediately go to fat don't they.
Or maybe it's just that she wasn't using the 1970's WW diet that you
claim works every time.

In fact you came out with the arguement that everyone knows to be true
except that you have been arguing against it all week.

The only reason I reply to you at all is that people might believe
what you say, Of course they could beleive the results rather than the
arguements. Although we started dietting around the same time, I'm at
target and you aren't.

## What to argue?  If she was eating LESS than she was burning guess what
would happen?

## Hey, I've been there with WW.   Lets stick to reality here.  Many people
don't lose weight on all these new and improved plans they keep coming up
with.  She may need to DROP a point or two a day and see if that helps.  Or
she may need to get MORE exercise.  One or the other, or BOTH should do
it....

> Or maybe she was on a plateau, you know where someone is on atkins for
> ages and reaches a plateau and can't lose any more.

## Exactly!  Had I been able to stick to 900 to 1000 c. a day I would have
been fine.  You should try it yourself.  :-)

> Or maybe you would suggest she's been eating too many carbs, 'cos they
> immediately go to fat don't they.

## You tell me.  Where do too many carbs go?

> Or maybe it's just that she wasn't using the 1970's WW diet that you

## You mean the 60s plan that actually worked?

> In fact you came out with the arguement that everyone knows to be true

##  Such as...?

> The only reason I reply to you at all is that people might believe

## Why not?  Do they also have friends and relatives who lost all their
weight in the 1960s as well?  No one failed on it that I knew, although many
bitched about all the fish meals.   WW fixed something that wasn't broken.

## And you're a post-menopausal 60 year old women on thyroid meds Ray?

She should just stay in the low carb group. I'm sure she'll drive them nuts
posting there while claiming to be following WW. Better them than us. <g>

no, she really shouldn't.

really.

Lol, does she sing the praise of WW there?

No, all she does is whine.  Non-stop.  No one likes her at all, and it
has nothing to do with talking up WW - if that was all she did I don't
think anyone would care.  Mheh.  

She's a kook.  I only came over here to see if she was as kooky here as
she is in asdlc, and whaddaya know?  She is!  I'm not surprised.

Well, you can take back our unanimous opinion of concurrence.  

She wants instant results - liposuction, in effect.  But throwing cold
water over any support is really the irritating aspect of her
communications.

Good luck on your side of the fence.

Gosh, sorry you've got that flu, but maybe you'll have a great loss
because of it!  Hurry up and get well fast.
