After half heartedly trying to get back on track after the holidays... and having my work schedule explode... I finaly decided to give core an honest try... Didn't work out at all this last week (cause of said exploding schedule..I'm working on that) and still lost 1.8 lbs !!! What d'you know ? it works ! Don't take me wrong, I loved flex and was very successful loosing weight and maintaining with it.. but I needed something new.. I'm having a blast !  SignatureWill~ 196.2 / 135.6 / 137 lbs 89 / 59.8 / 62.1 Kg Personal goal 125 lbs / 56.7 Kg Good luck with Core. I really enjoy it. I just gave up on it this week but am trying to stick as close as possible to core. DH refuses to cook core dinners all of the time so I ended up using too many WPAs but still not enough points to keep losing. <go figure> > After half heartedly trying to get back on track after the holidays... and > having my work schedule explode...

I'm having a blast ! I'm lucky that opposite number likes plain food. In fact - he prefers it...so Core is just too easy around these parts.

Hates chicken so it has to be smothered in something. Meats we are okay with. His meatloaf recipe uses meatloaf mix. 8pts per 4oz and that's without anything like eggs, milk or breadcrumbs added. yikes. Defintely not core. So in the end I was using a lot of WPAs for my meals and having trouble getting in enough points. I stopped losing. > I'm lucky that opposite number likes plain food.

I think it tastes just as good as the stuff I used to make with ground beef, but I understand that it's difficult for some people to wrap their heads around the idea of ground turkey or chicken when they're used to beef.

The meatloaf mix he insists on is beef+pork+veal. G*d only knows what % beef they are using. Certainly not lean. > I make a Core meatloaf using ground turkey, oatmeal, tomato sauce, > garlic, 1 egg and sage.

I think I'm the only one at my meeting doing it - for some reason everybody seems to think it's too liberal and they're afraid of it. I've tried telling them that 'eat until satisfied' doesn't mean 'until you feel like a stuffed hog' but they won't listen. And that's fine - I'm just happy they created Core for me...LOL Lynne Highest Weight - 308 WW Start Weight this time around Dec 29/04 - 222.4 Weight this week - 216.6 Goal - 150 (Subject to change) "Change doesn't happen while you're sitting around." >After half heartedly trying to get back on track after the holidays... and >having my work schedule explode...

Thanks, I tried to create a new post, but I don't know why it ended up in someone else's post...since I am new to this, I don't really know what the heck I am doing, btw...at the WI I stayed the same, but way better than gaining..which I was happy about. Today I started a more intense workout so hopefully this works. Char > Great job, Will! > [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] >> and >> maintaining with it.. but I needed something new..

I am always so jealous when I hear how well people do on core, Lee > After half heartedly trying to get back on track after the holidays... and > having my work schedule explode...
