Connecticut Pam - Week 4 complete and 12 pounds lost!
HOORAY for me!! I have lost 12 pounds, have a new haircut, had a facial and feel like a million bucks already. I am more determined than ever to take my weight off and once again become the active healthy woman I use to be. All the aches and pains are subsiding, my outlook is becoming better and life is once again not the burden of hauling an extra person around on my back. That extra person is slowly going away and although I am use to having "her" around, I will not miss "her" and that is a fact.
This week in class we talked about what to do when we got those terrible cravings for something decadent like chocolate, or perhaps chips or maybe ice cream which was my downfall. Everyone had good suggestions including having the chocolate or chips or ice cream and counting the extra points..Yes, you can have that good stuff but in moderation. My theory on giving in to the craving is that right now I am in the early stages of trying to get myself under control and this is kind of like "tough love" for me right now. I just don't want to have that stuff and until I reach a reasonable weight, probably won't. Weight Watchers has a lot of fine products that can help me fill in when I have a craving so I am therefore...good to go!
The size of our class has increased a lot since I first joined and I am seeing more and more men join which is great. "Back in the Day"..men didn't really go to Weight Watchers and now things have changed so much. Their input is invaluable as they do see this whole weight loss thing differently than women do and I enjoy listening to them talk.
Oh, my sister is also doing the program and has lost 12.4 pounds in 6 weeks, my son is also participating and has lost 10.3 pounds in two weeks...men lose so fast. AND..the hubs is now down 20 pounds..Whoo Hoo!
Thanks again for all your support and see you Lighter!!

You folks will have to go on the road as the WW banner family when you reach your goal weights!
Congratulations! The program is working for you and you look so happy with the results. Doesn't it feel good when you see that your hard work pays off? And seeing the results, it inspires you to lose more weight now! More to lose!
Good Morning everyone:
Well, I had a huge computer problem and everything that I had posted about my diet progress was lost but here I am back online and starting fresh here too.
The good news is that I am down 13 pounds now after beginning my fifth week on Weight Watchers. I feel bad that I lost all my previous information but will take it from here. Class is this Saturday, so we will start fresh.
Wish me luck with the rest of my week and will talk with you all throughout the week.

You lost your personal information on your home PC? Or, are you implying that the information you posted on City-Data was lost?
If it was your home PC, there are ways, a lot of them easy and free, to retrieve data from a crashed hard drive.

Wohooo!!! 13 lbs is really really good! How has your life changed? Have you gone shopping for new clothes now? What classes are you taking? Are you joining the aerobic classes at the gym? Last time you told me you were using the point system for every physical activity you embarked.
Are the foods delicious? I almost tried the nutri-system but thought better of shedding some cash on the cost. Trying to save, he he.
My goodness...I thought for sure that when my computer went down that some of my postings on my diet journey were lost..absolutely psyched that they are still here. Thanks again everyone for the well wishes. I am feeling so much better already. Conn. Pam

Hi Charles: All was not lost. It seems that some of my postings are still here. My husband is a Unix Systems Administrator and is saavy in Sun systems products, Microsoft products, Linux Systems (sp?) and Lord knows what all else he does..in other words, he was "AT THE READY" When I messed up, or so I thought I messed up, my computer. All I know is that I seemed to clear all past history and lost a lot of "stuff". I am not a computer guru by any means and what I do on here is not critical..I am retired, but I was upset as I did have lots of "chatty" stuff on here I wanted...sigh....I am good to go but thanks anyhow.
