Hey you guys and gals, We're showing 113 members as of this morning, so where are you all hiding? C'mon out of lurkdom. This weight loss thing (and maintenance) takes a village, not just one or two people, if we're going to be successful, so c'mon out, post a hello, and tell us how we can help YOU!! As for me, after several weeks of ignoring the scale, I finally weighed in this morning, and I'm happy to say I'm now down a total of 12 pounds. Not a huge amount (since September 18) by any means, but progress none the less, so I'm a happy girl. There was a brief spell there where the iron beast (or plastic in this case) was going in the wrong direction. Our Thanksgiving here in the U.S.A. is Thursday. Even though it's my favorite holiday of them all, for this year, I'm going to treat it as if it's just another day. Do you have a strategy in place? Anne 218.5/206.5/150
Diane, I don't know about any changes, but WWs tends to do this every year or two. The basic program seems to stay the same, with minor variations. For instance, my all time favorite program was the old 1-2-3, but they then changed it and got rid of the banked points (which seemed to confuse some people), and that's when the 35 extra weekly points kicked in. It came out to the same thing, but made it easier I guess. The other change had to do with fiber. Back in the day, we didn't have that 4 gram per cap that they have now. When I calculate most items that have more, for the most part, the points are coming out the same. I think an item would have to really have a huge amount of fiber for it to make much difference in points. Of course, another big change from 1-2-3 is when they added the core program, but I've never had much success with that. So, let's wait and see what they come up with now. Should be interesting to see. Now, as for you young lady, no frowny faces at that .2 pound loss. You're at a point where it's going to creep off, no matter how much you want it gone faster. Approaching 100 pounds gone is just sooooooo awesome, so instead of being unhappy at a tiny little loss (those will add up you know), think back to where you've been, and where you are now!! THAT'S what counts now!! The rest will come. Just have patience. Anne
I just downloaded the free trial of that program today. Haven't had a good look yet, but from what I've seen, I'm impressed. Won't be able to buy it for awhile though.... I'm totally broke until after my trip to Costa Rica in January. Thanks for telling us about it though. It's certainly easy enough to use. Anne
