Weight Loss Forum / WeightWatchers / June 2005Starting Over
Hi guys, for those of you that remember me, I'm back yet again. I was without a computer for 3 months (which totally sucked) and was struggling with being on program that whole time. I've decided to start from scratch, as of yesterday. I have a couple of friends to report into as needed which hopefully will help keep me going. DH and I are setting up a reward schedule for mini goals, and I'm feeling good. I've cut back on my commitments and I'm feeling better than I have all year. I've also been having a lot of periods of irregular heart activity lately as well, which gives me an important reason to get this weight off and stick to a healthy diet. I bought myself some fancy scales 2 weeks ago, got a great bargain too. The only problem with them is that they weigh about 7 kilos (15ish lbs) heavier than my old scales so my first weigh-in wasn't pretty. Still, seeing my weight over 100 kilos again is another much needed kick in the butt. I'll stop now before I write a short novel. It's great to be back again. I missed you guys. hi erin, I amnewly recommitted to WW too. it's the only plan that permits all foods. I can't *do* deprivation. I have to be focused on journaling (helped in the past) and making a plan of what I will eat at work. I work with food, so it's constant temptation-but I do have lowfat healthy choices available. Good Luck and stick with it, teresa 142/142/122 >hi erin, >I amnewly recommitted to WW too. >it's the only plan that permits all foods. I can't *do* deprivation. I can't either. The more I think I can't have something, the more I want it.

Same here, they say I have a problem with autority.. maybe *grin* but I NEED to be able to decide what I put in my mouth ! > >I have to be focused on journaling (helped in the past) > >and making a plan of what I will eat at work.

That's what I'm trying to do.. my problem is always lunch, working for WW I work on lunch time and dinner time.. so I have to plan very seriously to not get starved and eat too much when I finaly get to eat ! > >Good Luck and stick with it, > > Thanks Teresa, same to you :-) You two be good !

I get really stroppy and defiant if people try telling me what to do/eat/wear. I once had a boyfriend who tried to forbid me from buying coloured jeans. I didn't really want any but I went and bought two pairs just to spite him...lol... >> >I have to be focused on journaling (helped in the past) >> >and making a plan of what I will eat at work.

If I get too hungry I end up wanting to eat anything and everything. I also get *very* grumpy. I'm reaching that point now. I looked after a friends son today so didn't get any grocery shopping done. I have no idea what I'm going to cook for dinner and I'm so not in a cooking mood. >> >Good Luck and stick with it, >> >> Thanks Teresa, same to you :-) > >You two be good ! We can do this ! Thanks Willow. We'll all get there if we help each other through the rough spots. Hi Erin, Welcome back. Your reward system sounds great. So good to have support from DH.

Hi Erin, how wonderful to see you again! I hope to see you posting more often, and wish you success on your journey back to good health.

I'm trying to set up an environment that is conducive to weight loss, taking more time for myself and making sure there are lots of yummy healthy foods in the house. Welcome back, Erin. It sounds like you're in a much better place, emotionally and mentally, and also have the support of friends and DH. I'm sure you'll do well. Post when you can. I always like to hear what you're up to down in New Zealand. -- Linda P >Hi guys, for those of you that remember me, I'm back yet again.

I was wondering where you have been. It's nice to have you back. I've been struggling for awhile to stick to the program too, so I know where you're coming from. Good luck!

Being without a computer would really suck. We have around 10 in the house so I don't think that's going to happen to me any time soon.... > I've decided to start from scratch, as of yesterday.

Good to see you have the support of DH too. Less commitments means that you have more time to focus on yourself and making you happy. That's got to be a good thing. > I bought myself some fancy scales 2 weeks ago, got a great bargain > too.

I don't have a regular meeting anymore and I swear the two meeting places that I laternate between have different scale calibrations. Luckily my scale at home seems to be pretty constant. Anyway, it's not the number that counts so much as the difference between last week and this week. > I'll stop now before I write a short novel. It's great to be back > again. I missed you guys.

My computer is flaky and kept dying and the laptop was in being fixed, and the idiots kept screwing up. I can't understand how it can take someone 3 months to get a laptop completely up and running again. >> I've decided to start from scratch, as of yesterday.

That's >got to be a good thing. It's a very good thing, for my entire family. My son starts kindy in a few weeks which is going to give me 5 mornings a week all to myself, and in the meantime we're enjoying being at home together with no pressure to be anywhere. I'm still working at the Riding for the Disabled but I've cut back to one full day a week. Twice a week was just getting to be too much. I got burned out and decided it wasn't worth it and it was time to start thinking of myself again. >> I bought myself some fancy scales 2 weeks ago, got a great bargain >> too. The only problem with them is that they weigh about 7 kilos [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] >seems to be pretty constant. Anyway, it's not the number that counts so >much as the difference between last week and this week. I figured it's what direction the numbers go in that really matters. I measure myself as well and it's those numbers that really matter. As long as my clothes are getting looser then the scale isn't really that important. >> I'll stop now before I write a short novel.
