I am restarting meetings on Saturday. I am a lapsed Lifetime member. I have been avoiding the scale lately, but I think I have about 18 lbs to go to get back to my goal weight and 20-25 lbs to get to my personal goal weight.

I have so many great clothes that no longer fit, and I have several weddings, christenings, communions, etc this spring, so my motivation is probably 95 percent vanity. But hey, that's worked for me before! Chat Icon

Good luck, ladies, and thx for starting this thread.

Good luck to you!! We pretty much have the same amounts to lose- I'm 16lbs away from my official goal, but would like to lose 25lbs.

What meetings do you go to on Saturday? I used to go to Sat AM in Wantagh but lately have been going to Wednesday nights in Levittown.

Oh, so you go to Susan's meetings, too! I used to do the Sat. am meetings in Wantagh. I am going to go back to them - like to go early (like 8:15), even though it's crowded. I convinced my mom to go back with me, so we'll see how we do. I've always been really successful with it in the past, but I haven't really done the points plus. I was doing My Fitness Pal for awhile and lost a few lbs, but I've gained it back. So I think I want the structure and the meeting weigh-ins and all of that again to get back on track.

I start Monday - 16lbs to lose. I should say I have 16lbs LEFT to lose. I started a while back, lost 18lbs, fell off the wagon, put some back on and now have the last 16lbs to lose.

Yes! I used to go to the 7AM meetings. It's hard to get to them now that I have a baby. I might go back to Sat. AM though once I get back to work and bring him with me.
It's funny because my mom used to go with me too!

For snacks I like Kashi Go Lean Cereal, greek yogurt, smoothies (the ones they sell in the centers), mozzarella cheese sticks, popcorn, and fruit.

Lunches I've been having turkey on whole wheat tortillas, sweet potatos, veggie burgers, knishes, salads

Dinners are different. I like to look online for ideas. Stuffed peppers are good and very filling (I make them with lean ground beef and brown rice). I also like grilled chicken with brown rice and veggies, whole wheat pasta with shrimp.

Tomorrow is my first WI! Got on the scale this am, though, and have 20 lbs to go to get back to my lifetime goal. Yikes! I feel like the lbs are so hard to take off but sure come on quickly when you take your eye off the ball!

I am generally a fairly healthy eater - I like veggies, fruits, whole grains, lean meats. But portion control is a problem for me, so I need to get back into the habit of measuring and weighing my food. Also wine and cheese and that type of stuff is a weakness!

When I was "working the plan" in the past, my snacks were things like:

fruit and cheese (laughing cow, cheese stick, etc.)

yogurt

oatmeal (instant packets for work)

lattes with skim milk

hard boiled egg

small amount of healthy cereal (like cheerios) with skim milk

veggies or baked tortilla chips with salsa or hummus

small cup of homemade soup

1/2 sandwich - whole grain bread and something like turkey or 2 tsp peanut butter

Breakfast and lunch I had my go-to items and dinners, I like to mix it up. I look online but I also get Cooking Light, have a lot of WW and other healthy cookbooks, etc. that provide inspiration.

Colleen - Let me know if you go back to Saturday am and maybe we can meet up there! I know the 8:15 meeting is SO crowded b/c there is a huge crowd of members who've been going for years. And then all of the post-new year's crowd will probably show up tomorrow (me included Chat Icon but it's just the best time for me to go. And it's a pretty lively meeting, from what I recall.

I put almost all of the weight I lost in a year back on in 3 months. Its so frustrating how good food is and how easy it is to get carried away.
I am determined to get to goal and become lifetime!! Tomorrow is WI at Carle Place.

Re: OFFICIAL WW 2013 THREAD

Good luck at your WI Christine! I've been to that meeting once or twice, it is crowded but a nice group. From what I remember it was a pretty high weight loss group too.
I love the 7AM group (although half of us are still asleep!). I miss the Saturday mornings but Wed. night is so much easier with the baby.

Let us know how you make out!!
