Eddie-Type2 - 22 Jul 2006 01:13 GMT Hi all,
As expected, my WI today was a real wake-up call :(
I went up another 3.2 bringing my total loss to only 67.2 lbs from 76.8 lbs...........That's a 9.8 lbs gain in the last 5 weeks!
I'm tired of this pissing around I've been doing. YES, I made the choices and let myself slip into the "TADA" mode because I finally hit my 75 lbs milestone - but all that's done is set me back now :(
Do I hate myself? No! Am I pissed at myself? YES!! Have I forgiven myself? YES!! Am I thinking about giving up? HELL NOOOOooooooooo! NEVER! Am I back on program? YES! Do I feel like I'm in control again? YES! Am I going to dwell on the negatives? NO! Am I going to look back on the positives achieved in the last 13 months? YES! Am I going to refocus? YES!
My leader told me to make sure that I celebrate each loss from here on in - and that I shouldn't focus on thinking about the fact that I've lost ground and that mentally I'm telling myself that I can only celebrate once I get back to where I was.........I'm going to take her advice!
I've officially changed my stats (as you will see below)........
I'd like to extend a thanks to all of you out there for your comments. I really do appreciate them very much!

Rather than constantly reminding yourself that you had lost 76.8 lb and now lost "only" 67.2 lb (only??!!), how about just "splicing out" the last 5 weeks and continuing on track now.
Wow! You've lost more than SIXTY SEVEN POUNDS so far. Very soon you will hit a 70 lb milestone!
Let's go on from here!!!
doug@excited for you!

tanukiki - 22 Jul 2006 04:11 GMT > Hi all, > [quoted text clipped - 35 lines] > Loss to date=67.2lbs > Goal Weight-180.0lbs Eddie, I expect that I will be where you are in the struggle tomorrow when I WI for the first time in 2 weeks. In the 2 times that I WI in the previous 4 weeks I've put back on about 4-5 pounds of the 25 I had lost. I'll update my stats tomorrow after I see the damage. If there is any good news at all, it's that I know I'm down about 2 pounds from the beginning of this week as I have been pretty good this week with eating and exercised twice. So what would have been a bigger gain will be a somewhat smaller gain I think. Please remember YOU ARE NOT ALONE IN THIS! WE ARE HERE FOR YOU!!!

The phone picked up and disconnected when I called, and he refuses to respond to my email. I really don't need to deal with this malarky; I've been eating like a pig all day, I'm so frustrated trying to resolve this matter. The Queen was right, I should just cut my loses and move on. Ignoring that troll's posts is the correct response.

I forgot to ask for a copy. Maybe that's what she's talking about?

Lá~ká~ Wáná - 26 Jul 2006 05:25 GMT > what low carb plan??? The low carb one they had when I was up in NYC 2 summers ago. I went to a WW meeting in Astoria as a visitor. They had a low-carb plan there. The points came out the same but there was less carby foods shown on the picture. It appeared to concentrate more on meats and low carb veggies and fruit. Have they done away with that plan?

Willow Herself - 26 Jul 2006 16:56 GMT That sheet is in every center, we still give it out.. it's a 2 weeks plan only though..
As for that "low carb" I've been working for WW for 3 years and never heard of it.
We have Core which is a "smart carbs" plan.. but.. Will~

Lee I remember it being a menu plan, yes. But the choices looked healthy on the poster they had on the wall. It showed meat, a salad and vegetables. I don't remember what else it showed. As I recall you ate most of your points as protein instead of carby foods such as corn, peas, bread etc.

The plan I saw there at the Astoria meeting (2 years ago this month) was definitely low-carb. Since I am not going to the meetings this time around I cannot get more information for you. I only went there one time, as a visitor. I do not live in NY.

Lee, who used to fall of the wagon and let it run her over, NO more, and what about this... if you had fallen off how long would you have stayed off before trying again??? bet it was longer than this time,
