WW Checkin

[DietCokeLover]

How's everyone doing? I had a great week this week (-4.8) after a not so great week (-.2) prior. I am feeling super motivated these days, doubling my exercise efforts. But, I'm getting tired of eating the same things. So, I've been working Pinterest looking for new recipes.

Sorry I am late! I never thought about Pinterest for WW recipes! Thanks for the idea!

I have a WW magazine from 2011 that has some good recipes (and some not-so-good ones), so I have been working from there on meals. I have been hitting the gym almost every day and leaving the kids in the playroom. DD K hated it at first, but now she runs right in! As of last week, I was down 8 lbs since starting and am feeling good!

hey DCL! I just signed up a couple of weeks ago and so far, nothing because I haven't been able to work out the exercising aspect which is always important for me. The food is okay but I am looking forward to figuring out how to get my workouts in

Here's hoping we all have more good to report as the summer goes by!!

Keep up your good work! I'll definitely post recipes I work up (actually, have one from last night I will post asap).

Good for you for getting started Mopey!

I'm trying to get back into the swing of things. I lost 50lbs on WW about a year ago, but then got laid off and gained about 25 back

Anyone care to share what you're eating? I've been doing eggbeaters or egg white omelets with veggies in the mornings, maybe with some greek yogurt, but I need other ideas.

I lost 3lbs last week, but the prior week I was I was up 4 because I had eaten a really salty meal (didn't taste salty at all and I didn't feel bloated) the night before weigh in. I honestly still miss the old points program. I feel like I could have a better chance at "cheating" if I needed to, but now with the new program it makes me look like I am cheating all of the time. Now it is all about exercise, which I know is important, but seriously it just makes me feel bad that I am not exercising as much as the retirees and the SAHMs that attend my meeting. Some woman claimed she earned 49 exercise points last week, I earned 20. Hopefully next week will see another loss, but I am still irritating that three months in I am still 2lbs heavier than I was when I joined in March.
